    I agree. Probably would leave some money/perks on the table if he does this, but I think the best thing he could do is to release a statement that says something to the effect of "I'm no hero, I am simply a person who got put into the very unenviable position of having to chose to defend myself...

    Tires- recommendations

    I picked up a set of Sumitomo Encounter 10-ply a couple years ago for my f250. With a little over 22k on them, I am liking their performance, what I see for wear, and how they handle. - - - Updated - - - If I remember correctly, the Sumitomo were several hundred dollars cheaper for a set than...

    Vortex Diamondback 10 x 50

    LOL, I believe that is ridiculously true. I bought a Vortex scope for my kids' 243 and still can't be happier with it. Other than it convinced me to buy the same level of Vortex binoculars. My Nikons have also had coating issues, but this pair of Vortex binocs have gone downhill quickly...

    LOL, that's some truth right there.

    Vortex Diamondback 10 x 50

    I'll be testing Vortex's warranty here directly. The coatings on the inside of the lenses is bubbling off. Fricking terrible to try and look through at this point. I suppose they are 4-5 yrs old now(?). - - - Updated - - - This is on a pair of 10x42 Diamondback binocs.

    Weather Bucket 2021

    The roads around Bismarck/Mandan were ridiculously slick this morning. Speeds were limited to about 20-25 mph when in 2WD, and about 30-35 when in 4WD. Took forever to get out to our hunting spot, but it was worth it. The deer were out and about! On the plus side, it gave my son an...

    Water Heaters: Tankless vs Traditional

    Sheesh, 9.5 gpm is enough to supply water to roughly 4, maybe 5 showers at a time. Why would a person go with such an upper end water heater?

    Tires "AGAIN"

    Over the past couple years I put Toyo on my Toyota, and Sumitomo on my truck. The Sumitomo are a very under-priced tire for what you get. They are easily in the same conversation as my Hankooks, but at a little over half the price. The Toyos tho? I don't think I'd put those unbalanceable...

    Getting pumped: Deer opener!

    Damn, you former easterners turned human had me thinking. I am damn sure I have never filled my tag on opening day, much less in the first hour. I need to get better at this shit. - - - Updated - - - Hell, I can't even get a mental picture of the buck (might be a bad assumption, but read...

    Getting pumped: Deer opener!

    Exact opposite where I have hunted in 3E2. The fawns are far more plentiful than the adults. It's weird seeing a herd of 4-7 fawns with no adults. - - - Updated - - - Pretty sure I have never seen that before, but I have seen a couple of "fawn" herds this year.

    2021 Big Buck Contests

    I will win, nothing. My muley doe with the ML was enough fun for me. My daughter on the other hand, she may have a chance at something. p.s. Tumbleweed's big buck contest is on Dec 4th.

    Yellowstone

    I know what you mean, I was overseas when the Simpsons, Seinfeld, and SpongeBob became popular. I still don't get it...for the most part.

    Hearing safety--Something to think about

    Yeah, the odd part for me is that I always test well when having my hearing checked. They're...you're fine. So the lifelong lack of being able to listen to someone in a loud environment has always puzzled me. BTW, I've never been a loud music kind of guy. I think I was in my late 40s when I...

    Hearing safety--Something to think about

    I generally don't wear hearing protection while hunting, but I wear it religiously when target shooting or operating heavy equipment. So far, so good...I think. I hear very well in quiet settings, but in noisy places I often think I have trouble holding a conversation with people because I...

    Getting pumped: Deer opener!

    My first deer rifle was a Rem Model 760 chambered in 270 win. Fucking thing blew the action out to the right the second season I used it, I suppose I was 16 at the time. While I didn't get hurt, it left enough of an impression on me so that I will never again shoot a Rem pump rifle.

    Meter Weekend

    I love catching pike, they put up a great fight! That being said, I keep few of them. Just not great at removing the bones. If I wasn't as good at catching walleyes as I am, I'd be better at cleaning pike.
