    "Texas Heart Shot"???

    Ok, I’ve never heard of this before this thread. Is it where you simply shoot the animal in the hind quarter in hopes it won’t be able to run, and thus giving you another chance to make a better shot? Or is the idea to shoot straight through all of the organs, and hopefully hit the heart, by...

    Mountain lions "losing fear of man"?

    I have no idea what his real name is. This is the guy’s channel: https://youtube.com/@apex-livingwithpredators8379?si=5m4jpFz1PnuaeFYm

    Mountain lions "losing fear of man"?

    This particular YTer lives in south-central WA I believe, that’s how I found him. I only hunt in Oregon, so only care to watch content from the PNW as hunting anywhere else is pretty irrelevant to me.

    Mountain lions "losing fear of man"?

    There’s a guy on YT that I’ve seen a few videos from, and their whole shtick is that they exclusively hunt predators, in an attempt to reinstate the fear of humans in them. I don’t think it’s going to have the effect he hopes it does, but it doesn’t hurt to remove a few from the landscape...

    Rossi R95 Review

    All the reviews I’ve seen on these r95s seem to indicate that they’re shooters. I’ve only taken my 336 to the range once so far, so I haven’t gotten a good impression on how accurate it is yet. It wasn’t grouping particularly tight on that trip though. 2-4” groups at 100yd. I wasn’t exactly...

    Rossi R95 Review

    Very nice! I had been dead set on getting one, but then I found a deal on a used 336, and went that route instead. I’d still like to pick up an R92 in 357 some day for use in a straight walled state white tail hunt, and plinking at home.

    More Eve of Destruction news

    I’m 33 now. Whether is happens now, or later, I’ve come to expect I won’t be able to collect social security until my 70s…if I make it that far. It’s really pathetic that this is who we have for our representative government.

    Not on Your Bucket List

    I don’t really care to hunt sheep or goats. Too much work to get to where they live and then get them out. Moose is the other big one. I had it a few times when I lived in AK, and it never tasted like anything spectacular to me. Also they’re huge, so the pack out is going to suck, and the...

    Ocellated Turkey - World Slam

    I went to some Mayan ruins in the Yucatan in January, and one of those turkeys was chasing and kicking at us. Been wanting to kill one ever since hahaha.

    TIL

    About 2 years ago I finally realized the reverse lights on a car are white to provide illumination as you back up. 🤯 I figured they were just that way to differentiate them from tail lights and turn signals. Boy did I feel like a dunce for it taking 16ish years of driving to put that together.

    Do you have an inner monologue?

    Mine tends to be more of an outer monologue. Staying silent isn’t something I’m good at, and I do better when I outwardly process…that is to say I’m talking to myself constantly. So, I do have one, but only when I have to. I’m not just going to call someone hideous to their face, gotta keep...

    "Killing Animals Helped Me Make Peace With Death" by Nicole Qualtieri

    Ugh, poets. I’ve tried to get through this article, but I just can’t stop rolling my eyes. The spirituality woo-woo-ness of it all is too much for me to stomach.

    Youth 22

    I have a Rossi trifecta (20ga/22lr/243win), and it’s possibly the most fun rifle I own. For years my wife would only shoot our 10/22, but now she’d rather shoot this little break action. I don’t know why, but loading up this little guy one at a time is just heckin’ fun.
