    Home Window Quotes and Warranty

    We built our house in 1998 and installed all Milgard windows. They have (at least at that time) a lifetime warranty. We've had at least 8 fog up and have to be replaced. All free of charge! Their warranty dept doesn't make it super easy but so far they have got the job done every time. I'm...

    Oregon Jackrabbit

    if you are wanting to eat rabbit I would walk grassy old roads a lot closer to home and kill some cottontails. I've eaten a bunch of them and they are excellent.

    Arrow rest

    I just switched from a Rip Cord Ace to a Hamskea Epsilon and it's working really well. The Rip Cord always seemed to have a little vane contact which really got worse with age.

    Oregon Jackrabbit

    Their numbers really fluctuate and the last couple times I've been out in the desert they have been fairly rare. 20 years ago you could shoot them all day long everywhere. I've seen the most down in the SE corner of the state anywhere there is sagebrush.

    West coast salmon recovery

    I agree that it doesn't seem logical to waste fish but I think the solution is to ban any method of harvest that creates it. We can no longer sport fish sturgeon in the Columbia but the salmon gillnetters can sell their bycatch. If sturgeon are in such dire straights that can't allow a small...

    Axle to Axle Advantages?

    I shoot a 33” ata Hoyt Carbon Spyder ZT Turbo with 6” brace height and I would not want to go any shorter ata and I will look for something with a longer brace height when I’m in the market. It’s one thing to develop consistency in ideal conditions but the one shot that really matters is rarely...

    In pursuit of my first bull - nothing like I had planned.

    Congrats! Way to stick with it. It's a bummer when the body doesn't want to cooperate, glad it finally came together.

    Wolves Have Been Released

    The ODFW Commission just voted to make no changes to the Oregon Wolf Plan until 2028 at least other than they want less wolves killed due to depredation. Portlanders elect the Governor who appoints the Commission members and also tells the agency directors what to do. I hate to be so pessimistic...

    Wolves Have Been Released

    That is pretty much what we are dealing with here on Oregon. I see no path politically where we end up having even a meager hunting season for them here. They are already causing a ton of damage to livestock and the state is spending millions of dollars scrambling to deal with them but no...

    Public Land Antelope Success!

    Congrats! Bummer she missed the coyote but at least he definitely knew he'd been shot at. That thing was covering some ground! Thought he might pass up the antelope...

    Retire the switchback?

    I'm in the same boat. My current bow is coming up on 9 years old (which is hard to believe!) and I can shoot it well if I have been shooting consistently and I'm shooting target tips. Once I switch to broadheads any little change in form and things go to heck. I would like to find a bow that is...

    Coastal Oregon Rifle Elk Help

    Not sure where you are getting those numbers but from the ODFW statistics the success rate in the Wilson for 2022 was 10% for first season and 6% for second season. The number of hunters in the Wilson Rifle hunt dropped about 10% while number of bulls harvested dropped 25% so I have to disagree...

    Coastal Oregon Rifle Elk Help

    This thread is about rifle hunting and I am looking at rifle season numbers. The rifle harvest in the Wilson in 2020 was 195 bulls (first season) and 55 spikes (second season) for a total harvest of 250 bulls. 2022 it dropped to 153 bulls (first season) and 51 spikes for a total harvest of 204...
