If 2023 was the dawn of the Age of AI, 2026 the Sun has crested the horizon. For those with their finger on the pulse of financial markets, the exponential increase in the capacity of AI, job displacement, and the flow of capital through the top AI tech companies from private equity is now...
Best offer - reply in the thread. After 10d they go to the highest bid, min $15 (to cover shipping).
These sat too close to the fire and shrunk 1/2 size, and no longer fit me properly. They are size 10.5 and fit size 10. Moderate wear (see photos).
My goal this year is to hunt deliberately and patiently. My hunting has always been a charge ahead, walk more, skip the important things. I get plenty of exercise, but as I get older I increasingly see the value in hunting efficiently.
Between home improvement projects, and work and family...
Assuming that I do not change my career that I began in 2009, I can retire in 14 years at age 55 and collect a pension. Assuming the 6% cost increase per year in health insurance continues (non-compounding), a 22k annual health insurance "gold" plan in 2024 would rise to 42K by 2039, and 55k...
State legislators are sworn into office the first week of Jan, kicking off the 9th consecutive year of full Republican control of Iowa government at the state level. Each annual legislative session brings fresh assaults on public land, public land hunting, and resident hunting opportunity...
As the 2024 MT general deer season winds down, have you observed more mule deer does and fawns on the landscape compared to 2023 and 2022? FWP will inevitably continue to publish population graphs, which are only as reliable as their spotty data, so I am far more interested in anecdotal...
Heading to WY and MT with @Bowmannate2000 in a few days to catch the tail end of the antelope season. Four units, three weapons, and hopefully a big cooler full of meat here soon!
Just spitballing here. Besides the complexity, cost and time required to put more game in the field, I think there might be a fundamental flaw in attempting to redirect hunters’ attention away from how we slice the pie, and towards making the pie bigger.
If you are of privilege, the total...
Two simple things that are bringing about profound changes to land ownership in Iowa.
Farm and recreational property ownership shows an accelerating trend towards nonresident ownership. Large farms are increasingly being purchased by investors for portfolio diversification. Lifelong farm...

Erik Van Woerkom, AKA “Muley Freak”, should have long-since hung up his 1000-yard wounding stick, and joined the ranks of washed-up former hunting influencers. Poaching for content conviction in Utah? Fool me once, I guess. A second offense in Idaho in 2022, I see a pattern emerging… Not only...
