Don't know if y'all are aware that here in Arkansas we have a few good creatures to hunt.
This is only one that we have on cameras around our lease again this year. He or they ( 3 already ) have destroyed 3 feeders and our game cameras logged the hours they stay at a feeder. Then they tear it...
Interesting is the Spring River we have in Arkansas, it is said to flow from Mt. Rainier in Washington state. The flow is tremendous so the underground river comes through the rock strata in many levels and it is in the seismic zone of the New Madras Fault.
But, caving is a most popular sport...
I've hunted with a 06 most of my life, with 55 gr. Acceleraters to 200 gr. BTHP never had problems. I was gifted a Mod. 70 Win Feather lite in 308 few years ago, but it's show quality and I can't bear to take it to the woods so I opted for a Howa Hough 308 last year. Picked up a 300 Win Mag a TC...
Just a thought, get a class on firearms basics. Then rent a 22 from the range, auto or revolver.
Spend a wile getting comfortable with a side arm with little recoil. Then try different ones. Learn to manage recoil. Then think about what suits you.
It's very personal. Recoil scares many, don't...
Arkansas is full of caves AND a lot of underground water. We're also in the "New Madras" fault line. Makes for interesting exploration if your experienced and prepared.
Being a Scuba diver, I am told diving at my age is crazy (75) but with proper equipment if your heart is in good shape, go for it. Each person has their own limitations. Some more, some less
Common sense and training. Make the difference.
For us "Old Farts" Nitrrox and mixed gas helps.
It...
Interesting comment, your wording in jest is disturbing tho.
Lately I've seen up close and personal "Dementia, and Alzheimer's" not pretty, not funny, not a Joke.
A grown human being full of life turned into less than a child. And then Death if there lucky.
Your comment is Repulsive...
My 300 win mag came with a butt pad that to me was too soft. Changed to a Pachmyer and solved the problem.
Over the years I've made a habit of using Pachmyer on most everything I have both pistol and rifle and they've stopped the kick problem for the most part.
Untill the 338 came out the...
I believe from the last few responses I have proved my original point!
It's like drawing out iron to see if it can hold a temper!
Mindsets are just the same😉
Well first Dan O, thank you for your service, my Father in the 50's was a King County Sheriffs officer, one of the Weapons Instructors there, so starting at 8 years old I got lots of training. Back then lots of "Instinctive" shooting, both pistol and Shotgun.
Clay pigeons became my friends...
Me thinks we have a connection on two levels. One a teacher's heart, two a need to glean as much as possible from "Life"
Sadly many see nothing of what I'm saying.
It takes "The Inner Soul" to recognize this.
The essence - the Spirit of the Earth.
What Native Americans feel.
Like last year...
Sounds like his training payed off.
I am a student of history and study much of the "Ancients" way of life, much to learn. Sadly most don't care anymore.
I was privileged to have been a Teacher for the Associated General Contactors school from 1994-1997 in addition to working during the day. I...
For over 44 years I had a O3-A3 never shot it, was Nickel chromed, had a "Sniper Stock" I believe it was a parade piece, bore and barrel perfect. My Son Lusted for it his entire life, gave it to him at Deer camp couple years ago for Christmas. A grown man 48 years old crying will move you.
When...
