    Facebook Marketplace Gold

    Yes, thankfully the check was good. Loan has been paid off and all is clear. It was definitely right on the cusp of spidey sense saying "no deal" but he did provide enough info for me to do some verification of who he was and all that. I did a lot of praying for the deal to go through too.

    Facebook Marketplace Gold

    Honestly I broke the rule that I had been sticking to the whole time, which was no listing ever gets pulled until cash is in hand. If I had stuck to my guns then it would've probably avoided all the headache.

    Facebook Marketplace Gold

    Not necessarily gold but definitely a case study in Marketplace behavior. So the last hurdle to shutting the business down has been selling off the skid steer. I needed it to load a lot of the other equipment I sold but now its time has come. 230 hours on a 2020 machine, basically new. Plenty of...

    Is it possible?

    @TrapperJ don't take reloading advice from a forum as a beginner. If it's a topic you're interested in, buy a copy of The ABC's of Reloading and comb through it several times. It's not the kind of thing you need to get into without thoroughly understanding the risks involved and the critical...

    Recovering from an awful hunting season

    Practice in all its forms. Squirrel hunting, range time, and dry fire practice. All of it is very important. The squirrel hunting should help you calm yourself before taking a shot. Range time for being able to gauge how you're actually shooting. Dry fire time build muscle memory that doesn't...

    Best whitetail state

    What do you want out of the hunt? You can have a lot of fun on public in the SE but you aren't going to find "big" deer by Midwest standards.

    As they lay

    Big buck came by pushing a doe this morning. I'm in the thick stuff and he never even slowed down, even when I grunted. Spike was much more tentative and it cost him.

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    I feel so bad for people who have never had to go toe-to-toe with a gobbler on public in the Southeast.

    2025 Garden!

    Cut my napas today. They did really well. Should make a good batch of kimchi with plenty left over for stir fry and other stuff.

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    So is your belief that companies shouldn't be able to develop and sell products to hunters? And that hunting nonprofits must disavow any corporate connections? I dont see much hope for effective advocacy if thats the case. When you talk about BHAs drive for recruitment, are you speaking of...

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    You're conflating issues. Reducing the role of Ryan Callaghan as BHA's new CEO to "selling side-by-sides" to their constituency is a ridiculous exercise. Matt Rinella's unserious and unrealistic perception of the hunting and conservation landscape is what I have an issue with from him...

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    What a jack donkey. If he thinks the corner crossing and public land transfer issues didnt require BHA to have corporate backing, then I've got a bridge to sell him.

    What a time to be alive

    I wonder where its being produced. I piped (and then re-piped because the dairy plant didnt want to pay a process engineer for a multi-million dollar deal) the process lines for the plant that produces most of the Tillamook ice cream in the southeast. One of my first jobs as a fitter/sanitary...

    Are tungsten turkey loads worth the money?

    For me, being able to downsize my gun and still be comfortable at 40, even 50 if I misjudge, is well worth it to me. Im personally not a fan of the 3.5" 12 ga loads that people are blasting birds at 100 yards with. Lead will kill them just fine though. One note about chokes, tss doesn't...

    2025 Garden!

    Pulled the first broccoli off. Still getting peppers. Peas are close to throwing some pods. Napa cabbage just about ready to take. Regular cabbage pretty small. Chard and collards I think are too much for the bed they're in. That bed may need nitrogen too. Garlic and onion sets pretty much all...

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    Yeah thats a good idea. I just used a jack stand this time. Thats actually a friend's tractor, not something I'll regularly be hauling. I really dont have any need for 6k lb capacity except maybe dirt or gravel, but if I was going to order and axle and have to pay freight, I figured go big or go...

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    Not a ton of fab work but when cleaning up the property at the shop I found this 6x10 tilt trailer frame. It was built pretty stout but it was just the frame and springs. I talked to my boss's widow about it and she gave it to me since it wasn't really worth anything in the condition it was in...

    You aren't joking. This one's 240lbs when the tank is full.

    I see no faults. I did also load a generator like this Saturday though:

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    One of the projects that I knew I was going to make happen when everything took place back in July was turning the frame of the truck the business got started with into a hay wagon for our church fall festival. This was on the list of down time projects but we just never had the time. I talked...
