    How about buy a pickup? Dang near same price of good used 4x4. Yet you can take 4x4 cross country if needed.

    boats

    I agree with that too. Now many guys are financing boats like a house payment. Make payments for 15 yrs. Crazy. My logical thinking I just can't see paying that much money for something you can't use everyday. Paying 60k for something you'll use for 4-5 months isn't in my thinking or...

    boats

    quote from fishreaper...You will have a huge smile no matter what you buy, a 21 foot ranger or a 16 foot tracker, the fish dont care." I agree with this. I know a lot of guys with giant expensive boats that have no idea how to fish. The boat doesn't catch you fish. I would love to have a...

    concussion

    I am a coach and former HS and college athlete. Things are different now. I'm betting many of us have had concussions but never knew it. I can remember a couple. I was never diagnosed but when you can't see and are staggering after collision-you don't need a doctor to tell you. The big...

    This Is What Life in North Dakota Looked Like in 1935

    Life may be better now or at least easier. But...people were much better then. I'm finding I like people less and less. But get a chance to talk to an old timer and it's very rewarding. No entitlement in those days.

    Trailer

    Same boat as well. Been looking for an atv trailer for some time. Don't want to break the bank but then again, don't want junk. Everything leads me to buying all aluminum. Lighter, no rust worries like steal and no wood floor rot worries. Yet, more expensive.

    Winchester Model 70 extreme weather

    Obi wan...I guess I kinda feel opposite. Feel with MAG u are loading twice. Push in the MAG then push MAG in. Actually I don't hate magazines just used to hinged floor plate. More dislike 24 in barrel. Ps sorry fellas is detachable magazine better than clip or is it something else lol!:)

    Winchester Model 70 extreme weather

    Anyone have any experience with this gun? Wonder about the grip and balance? Is stock smooth or does it have a little grain? I know it has a fluted 22in barrel i believe. Side note..I bought a browning xbolt ss stalker last year in 25.06. Used it first time this season. Discussed on here...

    So...I got a dog

    instead of spending all the money on supplies for house just buy a DogDen 2. I have 3 labs. I built an insulated box for two of them in my garage that they can go in and out. Does work nice but..didn't have room for new dog so I ordered a DogDen 2. I believe around $300. Put some bedding in...

    two hunters two kill shots, who gets the deer

    A lot of factors play into this. If deer was hit by another hunter and I witnessed it and I had chance to help put it down...I would and give to first hunter. But if deer is wounded and two days later I come across it and am able to finish it. It is mine. In this story can proof of lethal...

    You know you're getting OLDER when...........

    Thats the hard part. Being in my early 40s my body definitely feels it but my mind says Im 20. I still have the heart just not the legs.

    25.06

    Are there many 25.06 shooters here? I picked up a lightly used browning xbolt in this caliber. Nice gun. I plan on using it for deer this year. See if I like it. Am planning on shooting 117g hornady superformace. I have been having decent groupings. Wondering if anyone else shoots this...

    6.5 creedmoor

    well I know where to find the savages lightweights. A local dealer can get them...maybe lefty? Ive just been reading up on them and a friend has one. They appear to be a excellent round. Shoot the 140 gr hornady and they have little kick. I was able to shoot one at the dealers and was...
