    air cooker?

    My wife says she wants an "air cooker" instead of using a deep fat fryer. Can someone clue me in on this, how it works and maybe what brand, where to find one? thanks

    F'n Trespassers!!!

    I know a guy who puts up some sort of ADT sign or something. Some type of deal that says it has a security system or camera or whatever. He doesn't...but puts them out anyway and said it has reduced trespassers a ton.

    Winter dog travel

    Ive had toppers on all my pickups except current one. I miss having one badly. You can throw so much in back and not worry about blowing out or getting stolen. Great for dogs too. The added weight in back actually makes pickup ride tad smoother as well. I'm debating getting another one too...

    Chicken Coop

    Do you guys have any simple plans for a chicken coop? We had our first 4 chickens this spring-fall. We enjoyed them but just had cheap coop for them. Is now too cold so gave them to a friend with a large number. We plan on getting 4 more in the spring but I will build something warmer so we...

    Mule vs Whitetail

    Problem around my area is I highly doubt you get "Your" deer. I skin, butcher, bone etc my own animals. But I take the meat to the locker for processing. With the high numbers of deer brought in I highly doubt you get the deer you bring in. Probably all mixed up so I don't bother aging etc...

    who is your most hated QB in the NFL

    #1 Cam Newton. He is such a freaking baby. Actually I believe he is emotionally unstable. His mood swings are nuts! #2 Tom Brady...probably because he's good, but also think he's a sneaky cheater and a pretty boy and #3 Aaron Rodgers. Yet I love him too. But he's a spoiled baby. I read...

    Mule vs Whitetail

    To me they taste the same depending on geographic location. East river deer taste better due to more corn, beans etc. West river mulies or whitetail taste more sagey. I prefer the east river taste. Many people don't realize that the sage grass is very healthy. Very high in important...

    Problems with inconsistency

    I had a 25.06 and used to shoot the same round. 117g Superperformance. That round did not shoot well. I did not like it and could never get it consistent. Most reviews of load says the same. Quite honestly, it may be too fast. Fast rounds often do not pattern well. But I've never had it...

    Iditarod Scandal with Dallas Seavey

    In reading several articles it does sound like sabotage. Think the only dogs that tested positive are ones he dropped. None others did. I agree PETA. However, what is the big deal with this drug/med? It is suppose to help an animal with arthritis. They prefer and animal suffer? It's not an...

    Good wolf medicine?

    When I was in bear camp a few years back a guy shot a younger black bear. Not sure of weight..maybe 100-125lbs? He killed it with a .300. Not sure round either but it left so much damage from exit hole the pelt was useless.

    Good wolf medicine?

    I agree with 270 and 130g bullet. I have pals that have been up there hunting over bait. Said wolves are fairly tough. My reasoning is always that if I am paying for a hunt..I want odds stacked in favor of knocking down animal with minimal tracking etc. Put them down, worry about pelt later...

    Unexpected "Icks"

    Back in my sinful days me the boys would go down to the local well and would chew like rats and drink like pirates on shore leave. There have been many a times that i'd be sitting with two bottles in my hands. One for drinkin and one for spittin. Sooner or later they'd get about even. I would...

    243 or 308 "reduced recoil" for youth

    I vote .243. That is now what my son (12) shoots. I believe it forces me to teach him correctly. Meaning I want to expose him to good ethical shots. Closer shots, Trying to keep shots within 225 yds or less. 243 is excellent for that range with minimal kick. Heck I started him at 10 with a...

    Coyotes

    in the northeast part of SD where I live there WAS a large population of yotes a few years back. They got so bad and were causing some kerfuffles with farmers etc that state trappers came in and trapped and flew a few areas. They dang near whipped them out in this area.(starting to come back)...

    Wolf attacking Moose in a lake in Ontario

    That's really interesting video. That wolf was relentless. I see how deer don't stand a chance.

    Dog blind for field hunting?

    Like I said and a couple others. Your dog doesn't need anything. Just teach it to lay still- period. A state trapper once told me that when he flies he can pick out goose hunter blinds no problem. Said they are usually camouflaged up well but he can pick out profile rather easy. Hence..birds...
