My son received a few scholarships for college. One of the scholarships came from a conservation group and they sent him a W9 form to fill out. I have never seen this before and I am not to keen on mailing them back a form with his SS # om it. Is this a legit practice? the scholarship was for...
My son has always wanted to hunt javelina or black bear. He has been a great kid and done everything he is supposed to do. He just started college but went in with 38 credit hours so he might graduate in 3 years with 2 degrees or do four years and get 3 degrees. My question is what states should...
Looking to get an optic for my 22 mag that will be used as my coon calling rifle. What do you all recommend? Cant decide between a 3x9, 4x12 or something lower powered. When my son is with me he will be running a AR in 22 mag with a 1-4 with a dot.
Anyone have one? I messed up and stopped in the local dealer about getting my 07 ranger in for some work before trapping season. Was just kind of window shopping the new rangers and the salesman said I should really look at the Can Am. Well the wife and I took it for a test drive and man it is...
I have looked around online but can't find what I want. Is there a calculator that you can input your 401K value, age, and see how much you can withdrawal while changing interest rate?
Example:
age 55
live to 85
401K=$600000
earn 7% a year but want to take 4% out so the base amount doesn't run...
It seems like a no brainer if you have a little one that qualifies for the seed money especially if you can get the extra $250. I am little torn on if I should do one for my daughter. She is 17 so I can only do it for one year but that would still be $5K I could set back for her. I know a lot of...
I haven't hunted Colorado in 25 years and started thinking about adding it to the list to try and hunt again. I am having trouble finding anything on the Colorado website that shows public ground access. Is there a way to look at it by unit like the Wyoming hunt planner?
Just kicking around some ideas of starting to look at where to retire at. I have 3 years before I can go but I will probably work another 8. But I want to start narrowing down where we want to go. My wife really likes to fish so that is high on our list. I do enjoy hunting but trapping is my...
Ok guys here is the plan. I have 3 years before I can retire. I will probably work 8 more and leave at 35 years. What my wife and I want to do is move back where I grew up. We would like to buy a house there and fix it up before I retire. What we want to do is buy the place use it as a weekend/...

What is everyone's favorite way to cook trout? We have a few in the freezer from our Yellowstone trip and we are going to try for some more that get stocked in a few lakes around here in the winter. Just wanting some ideas on how to cook them
Thank you for any recipes
Well looking at my W2 and my employer didn't have a separate column for my overtime. So I went back through every pay check and wrote down my OT premium. My job pays the 1/2 or double time as separate hours.
Example I work 60 hours for the week I will get paid 60 hours straight time and 20...
Looking at getting our first trailer to take some more outdoor trips in. We are looking at the Winnebago micro Minnie and a Nobo both dual axle models. Anyone have either of these brands good or bad of either?
When the hunt planner says so and so tag is good within the "blank" river drainage what does that mean? Like is there a written rule like half mile either side of the river? I have always wondered how it applies
Roger’s sporting goods has this ammo for $16.99 a box of 20 on sale. I bought 6 boxes and that gets you free shipping. Didn’t know if anyone likes this ammo but I thought it was a pretty good deal
My wife and I would like to do an ice fishing trip next year and looking for some advice on a state to go too and a guide or charter place. I saw that some places even rent cabins you can stay on the ice and fish out of. Anyone ever done a trip like that and have a good place they recommend...
I was going to make up some ring bologna this saturday. I haven't made it in years but have a couple kits to use up. My question is could I make it friday night and stuff everything put it in the fridge then smoke it saturday? Would that be ok? Or does it need to go straight to the smoker after...
So I picked up a Ruger American predator gen 1 in 22-250. This will be my ride around in the ranger checking traps and riding in the truck checking cows rifle. Do you think a 3-9x50 would be fine? Or should I go 4-12? I’d like to stay under $300 on a scope. Any suggestions?
The boy sold a steer and used part of his money to purchase his first rifle. A Howa 22-250. Hopefully he is able to get it in the next couple weeks. Being his first he has a waiting period. Now to decide what scope to get for it
