    Average age of the hunt talk crowd.

    I’m old. 60. Someone with more IT (younger) should ask the favorite knife for each decade. I have a tiny old timer and a bigger buck. Still sharp after almost 50 years of gutting and skinning.

    Caitlin Clark finally

    Recently, I have enjoyed watching the women’s game over the men’s. As a child and a young man I assumed basketball was a team sport. More and more the men’s game is a team of individuals. Both leagues will continue this devolution of concept as time goes by. The all star break was always a...

    Looking for California Gold

    My wife got me a mine lab metal detector and I want to give it a try. I want to prospect somewhere east of Stockton California but I don’t want to jump anyone’s claim. I’m just looking for a small wash I can walk up without paying for access or getting in to trouble. Does anyone know of a...

    In your opinion what 3-5 rifle calibers are best for Mule Deer?

    7mm REM Mag 30-06 308 30-30 Only 4 I ever shot a deer with. All performed well. I probably shot all of them further than I would recommend

    Have you eaten horse?

    I did have horse in China. I think it lived a long life as a beast of burden. Bad experience.

    Kitchenaid Stand Mixer maintenance

    My wife got to complaining about how the sound had changed. We ordered some grease and watched the same videos as everyone else. When the grease arrived I tore it down, cleaned it up and replaced the grease. It took just over an hour. The whining stopped. 😉

    Most overrated band of all time

    Duran Duran. I’m 60. I would disagree with: Boston, Brad and Tom might not have had enough music to be respected by some. CSN ( I personally like Y but he was a distraction) KISS. 2 of the best concerts I ever saw but couldn’t stand to listen to an 8-track.

    Most overrated band of all time

    I can’t respond without rolling the bus over bands I generally dislike. Rush RHCP Spice Girls Sex Pistols Was Stevie Wonder in a band…?

    How do you pay for stuff?

    I used PayPal exactly once. Self inflicted loss of almost $2000. For me , it’s FTF or I don’t need it that bad.

    Hunting Solo by choice or circumstance

    My dad passed away, my brother moved away, one daughter started hugging trees and the other got married to her best hunting buddy. Now, if I want to be around people I go camping. If I want to be alone, I hunt. I always had trouble maintaining partners because I chose to hunt hard in hard places.

    Is this buck 201 1/2?

    I agree, velvet adds a bunch of inches. It is a really nice buck I would not hesitate. That said, if the deer pictured weighs 500 lbs, it might be a 200” deer.
