    Hunt Talk popularity ratio

    This seems appropriate considerong all the talk about points lately. Hunt Talk Popularity ratio = Reaction Score / Messages This somewhat evens the playing field as the more prolific posters (Ahem @wllm, @noharleyyet, etc) may have a lower ratio if each post isn't up to snuff. I'm sitting...

    Mike Rowe has a show called Somebody's Gotta Do It that I watch on YouTube. The episode posted yesterday included Mike hanging out with Hank crabbing and foraging. Enjoyable watch.

    Let's celebrate your favorites of the various dead threads of HT. Those that shined brightly before they were sentenced to execution either for subject matter or simply going off the rails. Covid Memes Political Memes Greenhorn's shock I guess you could throw in a long forgotten but...

    Taking a year off

    Not hunting, but heading out west. My wife and I are going on a cruise next year for our 15th anniversary which will burn some PTO time. Plus, it's life to take more time off around the holidays with the family. Dad has a child other vacations booked with my sisters, in additional to the...

    Picked up a 6.5 Creedmoor, ammo?

    Well, I've been jonesing for a 6.5 creedmoor to have as a dedicated "smaller than elk" rifle for a while now and grabbed the Savage Axis II from the Bass Pro black Friday sale. Before I start randomly grabbing whatever boxes of ammo I can find, do y'all have any recommendations to start with?

    MT Private Land BUCK Slayers

    Formerly of MT Private Land Doe Slayers (with a surprise buck tag), and FL to MT 2020 (with buck and elk tags, but none injured), Dad and I headed back to Montana again in November with two Type A deer tags in our pockets and a lucky antelope tag for the area we'd be chasing deer for dad. Since...

    Queen Elizabeth II Passes Away

    Small/mid-size trucks, best all around

    Edited to add that I ended up with a 2023 Frontier for anyone new to this thread. Met all my requirements except price. Every year when dad and I head out west we take my wife's 2018 F150. When we lived in FL we would leave my wife my dad's truck. Now that we're In TN I've left her my 2000...

    MT Private Land Doe Slayers: Talk About Guaranteed

    Das Boat Northeast

    Anyone else watch this series on YouTube? I really liked the last two seasons, but I kind of hate this one. I think it's a combination of the new host (which I don't find funny or interesting at all), the whole new level is janky "repairs" they let people make to the boat (not to mention the...

    Long wait time to see dealer?

    Admittedly I'm mostly just venting after a frustrating morning. I have to take the truck in to get serviced (2018 F150) due to some warnings popping up. I was spoiled back in FL and had a dealer just down the road that I could drop the truck at and get a call back with a diagnosis within a day...

    Should be a fun few years

    Dad and will have 2 points for the MT big game combo next year, then 4 points for deer, elk, and antelope in WY the following year (2023), then 4 points for deer and elk in CO after that (2024). We'll be shooting for general tags in WY (can probably get both deer and elk with 4 points, no idea...

    CWD positive meat

    This has come up in various threads, but I didn't see a thread dedicated to the question specifically. FL didn't have the same CWD problems that TN does so it is something that has come up in mind recently. To be honest, I'm not 100% right now. My gut reaction is that I'd label it and just eat...

I have a trail cam set up about 60 yards from my backdoor in some brush and trees were a few does like to wander through on occasion. It's cool to show the kids the videos and even...

    Stop Box products

    Do any of y'all have any personal experience with Stop Box products, particularly their AR-15 chamber lock? It's obviously not a true safety device (retention device is what they say), but seems like some extra protection if one were to want to leave their AR with a full magazine is a reasonably...
