    Hunts you consider unethical and why?

    I am sure your right, I normally am very very careful not to type anything when I am in a bad mood. Yesterday the kids had the wife mad all evening so I got on hunt talk to relax. Guess I was not in a mood to let anything slide. Momma always said in that case its best to shut up! Someday I will...

    Hunts you consider unethical and why?

    This is interesting I never would have guessed so many people consider driving deer unethical. This has been a yearly tradition for me since I learned to hunt. And just an FYI I also hunt with traditional archery and muzzloader gear and if you limit the ethical hunting pool to people that hunt...

    Any Gunsmoke fans out there?

    There is an app for both Apple and android called "old time radio" that has all the old radio programs from back before TV, or at least in the early days of TV. There is several seasons of the Gunsmoke radio program on there for free as well as lots of other shows, some good some stupid. I had...

    Any Gunsmoke fans out there?

    I assume you are talking about the TV show. I enjoy the radio program on my way to work occasionally. More entertaining than listening to the same songs for the 10th time. Or sports talk especially when there are no sports seasons open worth following.

    Would You Ever . . .

    A guy I work with used to (don't know if he still does) carry one into his whitetail stand with him to shoot squirrels. I always thought that could be a fun way to pass some time and there has been more than once that a squirrel has been chattering at me ten feet away that I have wished for a...

    Deer rifles for young hunters

    10 or younger I will put my vote in for .243 older than that I would vote 7mm-08. I like the savage axis 2 in youth model. And when they grow up they can give it to their little woman (my wife likes the youth model).

    Need some truck advice - F-150 down...

    Why isn't the Jeep Gladiator on your list to consider? I could see why the smaller bed could be an issue but they advertise 28 MPG highway and my jeeps have always been super reliable and the resale value is really good. I am seeing them listed in my area new for just over 30K. Unless going a...

    Would You Ever . . .

    Hmm a taser and a knife for an antlerless whitetail hunt? I probably wouldn't just because of ethics but man it would be fun to see your buddies face when there are no wounds but a slit throat and you say you killed it with a knife! Assuming a taser would actually incapacite it from close range.

    Hunting Meme Thread

    Gotta laugh at this one. I was still dating my now wife when she wanted me to meet her friend. We hung out and went spotlighting deer in the evening I turned around in my seat to to watch 6 bucks in a field when I hear her friend clear her throat. Here I thought my hand was on my girlfriends leg...

    North Face "The One Bag"

    I have never regretted buying my Kelty. I don't have enough experience with others to say it is the best at anything just that I don't feel the need to upgrade and the price was right.

    Son's First Buck

    Yes, the interesting part is when I was skinning it I noticed a puss pocket below the eye. took it to the taxidermist and he cut the skull plate off a whole new growth of bone had formed around it and the puss had went into the skull. Taxidermist said he never saw anything like it. We speculated...

    Son's First Buck

    My son got his first buck last week, going to take a lot of hunting hours before he tops this one I think. Thought I would post it here because Randy did a lot to cultivate his interest in hunting. Every Sunday morning my boys rush to get ready for church because that is when I put Randy Newberg...

    What do you think

    I don't know how close you are with the people doing your packing, but I will say my grandpa is getting to the point that he is having a tougher time getting out. He taught me how to hunt and was in a big part the reason I love the outdoors now. Last year I took him into one of my honey holes...

    Weird deer at trailhead

    If this happened in Pennsylvania or Kentucky I would say there was lots of alcohol and a bad bet involved. With California plates I don't know, thats a different world.
