    Getting old when

    When you reply to an NDA archery thread today and realize you still have your first bow and it's over 30 F'n years old.

    Lawsuit-archery-price fixing

    I have a 30 ish year old pse pulsar that has a 30% let off with a 60 lb draw weight. I shot plenty of deer with old aluminum 2216 arrows and bear broad heads going about half the speed of smell per second. If you think you need the fastest, newest, most tricked out bow on the market to use on...

    Wyoming Mule Deer

    Winter is a bitch and predators pack a wallop. Those two mortality factors, IMO, are worse than all the rest put together. Lions eat a deer a week and then you add wolves on top just for spice. Easy winters are the best thing mule deer hunters can hope for as you can imagine how likely an open...

    Ticks & CWD

    And the results are the same......May, could, perhaps, might, possibly, conceivable, presumably, and so on. My favorite line in the article is as follows: The study did not test whether prion-carrying ticks did cause transmission to other deer. So why the F should we care about cwd and ticks...

    Pontoon trailer

    Never had a pontoon so take this for what it's worth. Over engineer the guides. Pontoons catch lots of wind and the pressures a wind blown pontoon will put on a trailer guide are substantially greater than one would think. Seen LOTS of MN pontoon trailers with cracked and broken welds where...

    Bring back Flatheads in ND

    Channel cats are at the VERY BOTTOM of the catfish taste scale. Flatheads are at the top with blues in the middle. Just watch them Louisiana boys on Y-tube. They keep the flatheads first, then the smaller blues. Almost NEVER seen them boys keep a channel if given the choice. I've had all...

    Useless to Useful

    Wow! Took all of 15 posts to turn a positive thread into an attack. Well at least I can say I tried. Later Boys. See you after the election.

    Useless to Useful

    Thought I'd start a thread with something positive in an effort to offset ongoing negativity and moshpit theatrics. I have a few 275 gallon liquid totes previously used for firewood, where the bottom pallet is busted up pretty bad. Instead of tossing the whole thing out to clutter up the...

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's pretty much it Bud. Popped some holes about an inch above the bottom to leave a reservoir of water and set them on the ground. I'm pretty sure some of those pepper plants whispered "feed me Seymour" as you walked by.

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    We forayed into bucket gardening for the first time last summer. Peppers grew like wildfire in the buckets. We did learn that the buckets need to be in direct contact with the ground. We had dozens of buckets on our deck and ALL of them overheated and the plants were embarrassingly dismal and...

    Drought?

    Drought sucks. That is all.

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I try to fill the bottom with something besides black dirt. I like to use junk wood if I can find it like cottonwood, boxelder, willow, etc. Anything but pine. If I can't get that, I'll use whatever decomposable material I can find such as square bales, brush from tree trimming and the like...

    Bismarck high water.

    Yep! Lasts longer too. That's why they made the crackers in each MRE. Binds a guy up like baling wire and bondo put together.

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Going to put together another 8 raised garden beds. Each will be 4X8 and 40 inches tall. I built 4 of them a couple years ago and boy do I like NOT having to bend over or crawl on the ground to weed. I can just crack a beer, lean on the side, and pick away in comfort and style. Easier to...

    Smoking Northerns

    In a way. I always pat down the fillets with paper towels right before I put them in the smoker. The slight dampness of the meat really takes the smoke well. Now you guys have me wanting to smoke some fish.

    Smoking Northerns

    True. Leaving the skin on will hold the meat together better, but that comes at a price. The price is that the skin continues to produce the slime we all love, even after death. The skin produces it even in the brine and I found that at the end of the brine soak there was always a layer of...

    What would you do??

    The pic would be enough for me. It's a carp. A nicely colored carp, but a carp.

    Collectibles

    About the only collection I have that's worth mentioning is my various containers of random nuts, bolts, nails, washers, staples, and other hardware that I just can't seem to part with and in all likelihood NEVER use. I also can't manage to keep it from growing either. I may have a...

    Smoking Northerns

    Done hundreds of pounds of smoked northern. Some of what I've found. First, the bigger the fish the better. Just standard fillet with skin off. Don't worry about the ribs or Y bones. After you get done smoking them if you use a fork and press down on the ribs or where the Y bones are, they...
