I usually have two rounds chambered when chasing upland birds or jumping waterfowl. I don't know a single upland bird hunter that doesn't carry at least one round in the chamber. Anyone who is in danger of being injured by a chambered round is likely to be within close proximity and I don't...
Thank you, but I am looking for a hearing aid type system. Unfortunately, that type of suppressor is not legal in my state, and I don't think that they are a fit for a shot gun.
Hello,
I need new noise cancelling/suppression hearing system.
Until now, I have been using the Walkers Elite HD Pro, coupled with professional custom molded earplugs. These were and are exceptional at protecting my ears, are secure, and reasonably comfortable for all day wearing in the...
Thanks.
I suppose I could hunt during the rut with archery gear, but I was thinking archery season (next year) which starts in early Sept.
I do believe that getting the wind right is the best "scent free" product as I have seen animals feed next to me when I could smell my own stink yet act...
You are right. I took that for granted. No crops on the property or adjacent but defenitely in the river valley. Mostly feed crops for cattle. I suppose a lot of the trails will be cattle trails.
So, I found out that I can get access to archery hunt deer on a private section of uncultivated ranch property along a river in MT that appears to have plenty of cotton woods and willows. I have never hunted white tail deer but this looks like classic white tail habitat, and I would like to...
I agree and didn't think of that earlier. We kept Oscars and arowanas. As long as we fed them store bought goldfish, we had no problems, but when we scooped minnows from the local drainage to use for feeding the ich followed.
I also remember something about copper pennies helping the...
Dillon is a neat place, with some great people. If you haven't already, try the wood fired Pizza eatery associated with the Beaver Head Brewery. Best I've had.
Whatever fills the belly. Here they are eating the berries/nuts falling from the palm trees. Lots of 'em and apparently my dog likes 'em too regardless of whether the coyote has eaten them already or not. 😣 No more kisses from Ms. Twiggy for a while.
I've seen plenty of bird lice but not ticks on any fowl. Gives me the heebie-jeebies. Little blood sucking bastards. Ick!
Thanks for sharing that. Now I know.
I don't know that I can speak for any brands other than what I use, the Walkers Game ears.
The first and most important thing I can say is that everyone should be using hearing protection from day one. I am currently paying the price for not, and it sux. Seriously, with what I know now I would...
I get it. If they are freinds of yours, I would let them know that its a turn-off for you. After a little akwardness, they'll get over it and likely shut it down. If they are not freinds dissasociate with them.
I have pondered trips and then failed to follow through, much to my regret. My strongest advice is, go! I have hunted both (here in California the blues are called sootys, but the same damn bird). I think Brymoore's photos are spot on as is the rest of the advice. As far as getting schooled...
