    Older Double Bull Blind Question

    I have an old one from the first year they came out and the sleeves are wearing as you described. I think what I will try is pull the fiberglass rod from the sleeve, put a good amount of shoe-goo in the sleeve, slide the rod back in and clamp in place. Sewing the bottom may work, but sounds...

    Jim Shockey rips Canadian officials after bear attack and deaths of mother/infant.

    He actually made some points that we often use. Lets hope the anti hunters will take it to heart when they hear it from a fellow vegetarian. In reality I suppose that's over optimistic. At least he was catching on to some things.

    Barnes TTSX bullets

    I have shot a couple hundred of the poly tip and still have some. They do expand better than the originals, but not so much that I had anything drop instantly. I went from the old originals to the triple shock to the pol tip, even one box of long range. Is there anything that new since 2012?

    Barnes TTSX bullets

    Retired ed a few years back my hunting partner had rotator cuff surgery and didn't want heavy loads in his 300 Win Mag that season. He loaded his 300 with the 110 X at the lowest load which I think was right around 3300fps. I watched through the spotting scope as the bullet struck a 4x4 at a...

    Barnes TTSX bullets

    My experience has been good with X bullets, but sure different than most people. I started shooting them in 1988. I have shot them in 223, 22-250, 243, 270, 308, 300WSM, and 300 Win mag. I have never had a deer drop on the spot except for a couple of head shots with the 223. I shot one buck...

    Jim Shockey rips Canadian officials after bear attack and deaths of mother/infant.

    Excellent article. I could hear Shocky's voice in my head as I read it. I wish a video of him talking was played on television on our networks. Liberal lives are such a hypocrisy. They hate hunters, but worship predators. They would throw you in jail for stomping on a mouse if they could...

    Long range rifle targets

    I used 1/2 inch steel rod that I heated, bent to shape, and welded. The chain is hardened steel but you need to have a few extra S hooks if you hit them. Steel plates are AR500 steel 4 inch, 6 inch, 8 inch, and 10 inch. Most often I set them where it requires minute of angle to hit them...

    remember when...

    Ya I remember those. I think it was transmission. I run all over with an old Ford tractor that had the overdrive lever on the left side right on the side of the transmission. I could just barely reach it from the drivers seat. In overdrive my dad followed me and it did 22 mph.

    Badlands mule deer

    I forget some of the things I learned in wildlife biology, but there is some scientific reason that says you get bigger bucks with lower populations. I don't remember if it's less competition for food resources, less fighting for does that depletes body reserves or what the reason was. I seen...

    BDC Scopes

    I have the reticle Kurtr posted on the first page of posts. I didn't notice if his was mils or minutes. Keep in mind you can range with a minute of angle like you can with mildots and I think better. On the other hand if you know the range you can estimate size like antlers that are 16 inches...

    remember when...

    Going to school in a sleigh behind the horse that took my brother to school for eight years. Sitting on a warm rock mom warmed on the wood stove. Dad threw a fork of straw on top so I wouldn't burn my rear and wrapped me in my grandpas old buffalo robe. When the kids were home they thought I...

    Badlands mule deer

    Another thing to keep in mind is that it's the Game and Fish job to provide maximum recreation for the maximum number of people. For every trophy hunter out there we will find ten people who simply want a deer. Fighting that will simply tick of the majority of people. It's why we have a long...

    Badlands mule deer

    Some guys who buy those $100 heads should run out and buy a half dozen.

    I Phone or Samsung need advice

    I'm typing this on my three year old S6. I have beat the crap out of it. Had to barrow my wife's phone a couple of times to find mine. Last time in the mud under cattails. I think the Otter Box saved it. Darn auto spell.

    Badlands mule deer

    A buck and two does have been in a friends pasture (four sections contiguous) for two years now. Looks like they had fawns this summer. That's at Jamestown. My brother-in-law had a small forkhorn hang out for the entire summer, but someone must have shot him because we didn't see him during...

    Crossbow

    Huntin1 I wish you had not showed me that Sig P365 I'm flat ass broke again. Picked up the Carbon Express Pile Driver 390 Wednesday, and ordered the Sig P365 yesterday. My shoulder has become so bad I can just barely crank the Pile Drive, but it shoots good.

    White Hot Powder??

    It's been ok, but perhaps the worst of all the powders I have used. I prefer Blackhorn 209.

    Bunghole Class

    I have not gut a deer for about ten years. Slit up the back and pull the backstraps, pull skin down on hind quarter and cut out muscle groups, pull skin down on front quarters and strip meat, flip over and repeat, then go for the neck meat. It's about a 15 minute job. Last slit is behind ribs...

    remember when...

    That sure brought back memories. My dad had a heart attack when I was in the seventh grade and I had to take care of the farm. We had about 80 Herefords cows and 30 yearlings. I would set the alarm for 1:00am and get up to check for new calves. It was about -10 that March and I didn't loose...
