How many still tip waiters and waitresses at 20% or more?
I usually tip 20%. However, I have been known to leave $.50 to a rude, lazy, or inattentive server… just to send a message.- F250

Does anyone feel like outdoor recreation declining back to post-COVID level?
Not seeing any decline in the number of folks from Quebec. Highway traffic, shopping centers, boat launches, and Canadians opening their camps on Lake Champlain all seem normal. We had dinner at a popular restaurant in Quebec a few nights ago. Then ice cream at a crowded local vendor. Spoke with...- F250

Day Trespass fees for turkeys and deer
So is buying a farm and hunting it yourself really much different than leasing a farm and hunting it yourself ? Money is being paid for private access to a place to hunt. Full disclosure… I provide labor for access to hunt a property where I live and lease a farm in NY. That has...- F250

Serial poacher
Perhaps Buzz, you should stay in your own lane and go count some trees or whatever you do. Maybe go do some more big game scouting on the government dime in your Joe Fed truck. I have spent days and weeks living with felony serial poachers in UC situations. But I am certain you know way more...- F250

Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

Actually the threat of losing the privilege to purchase a hunting and fishing license IS a great deterrent for most people. Especially now that we have an interstate agreement with nearly all 50 states that issue reciprocal license revocations. Last I checked there were only a couple states not...- F250

I went to the Social Security office 5 years ago to sign up for benefits at age 62. There were over a dozen other people in the waiting room who were there to sign up for benefits. I was the only one who spoke English as my first language. I was also the only one who had spent a lifetime PAYING...- F250

Best Crossbow for elk?
The decocking mechanism is very useful. Many states don’t allow the transportation of a cocked crossbow. I have an Excalibur Matrix 380. Excalibur crossbows are recurves… no wheels. Pretty simple. I have used this one for over 12 years. Taken a couple dozen deer with it. Lots of really good... -
