    What's on the smoker today?

    Just picked up two nice whole turkeys on sale $0.39 per pound, little over $5.00 each. Will be smoking one of those birds soon.

    I need a turkey gun

    I don't understand the need for a dedicated turkey shotgun. Same old 12ga you shoot ducks, geese and pheasants with will work just fine. No need for a fancy camo finish or special sighting system either. Although I'm not an avid turkey hunter, I've done my fair share of it and killed a few. I...

    Finally getting one. I blame my coworker!

    I've got three of those boat paddles; .22/77, .223 & .243. Had a .270 and gave it to my nephew. Not the prettiest thing around but they're good rifles.

    Family Trip to Alaska - Let’s Talk

    Having done (8) trips to AK, I think your schedule is biting off a whole lot more driving and travel than you will be able to accomplish in that time. I've done the cruise / inland tour thing and would not recommend. Felt like being herded around like cattle. The trip I enjoyed the most...

    Any hog farmers on here?

    My neighbors who are also the same guys that cash rent and farm our ground raise about 8,000 hogs year round. A couple times per year they will call up with a hog or two that has a minor injury, rupture, bum leg, etc. They can't keep them with the healthy hogs and the packers don't want them...

    Small outboard- Suzuki v. Merc. v. Yamaha

    Merc is the only one I've ever had much trouble with. Swapped it for a Yamaha never a problem. We've got three boats with Yamaha's and no issues to date. Having said the above, I'd have no problem with a Suzuki or Honda either, great motors.

    How many is too many . . . .

    Growing up my dad, uncles and grandpa just about all had a few, typically; one rifle, a shotgun, a .22 rifle and maybe a pistol and maybe an extra .22 rifle or shotgun for a kid to use. That was pretty much the norm and I was on the same track till about 21 years old. Then and avid gun nut...

    Game Carts

    Use one frequently for deer. In many cases, it's a whole lot quicker and handier than trailering up the four wheeler, loading, unloading, strapping down, etc. Just throw the cart in back of truck and go fetch it.

    Grazing fees, the economics of elk and cattle

    I do agree that a lot of the west areas of MT & WY included are just about the most horrible places to raise cattle imaginable; hard winters, minimal rainfall, lousy feed, big predators, etc. The only reason that industry got started in the west to begin with is because land was cheap or free...

    "Greenwashing at it's best"

    Our town has a recycling program where you can set a tub of plastic, aluminum, metal, paper & carboard out by the curb along with your trash for pickup. They also have several containers staged around the county for rural folks who wanted to recycle to dispose of these materials. In my line of...

    Grazing fees, the economics of elk and cattle

    Don't necessarily disagree, but if you eat, you contribute to this.

    Grazing fees, the economics of elk and cattle

    Except we live in the present and not the 1700's. Used to have a huntable population of dinosaurs too.

    Grazing fees, the economics of elk and cattle

    In many areas of the country such as the midwest, the majority of ground is privately owned and the majority of wildlife reside on this private land. While many farm and ranch practices destroy habitat and are not good for wildlife, a great deal of wildlife gets a great deal of their feed from...
