    Minnesota DNR investigating deer believed drowned by pontoon driver

    Let's not jump to conclusions. This is actually much safer than how they usually hunt deer. #blazeorangebulletproofvest

    Useful Stuff and Useless knowlege

    Use Mother's mag wheel polish and buff the foggy "lens". It smooths the surface and removes the fine layer of foggy plastic. I always have a jar of Mother's polishing compound on hand. I use it for trigger jobs on Glocks, ARs, etc. Just polish the metal contact points. - - - Updated - - -

    Winchester SX3/ Shotgun sale?

    For what it's worth, I got out for couple rounds of skeet with the SX3 this morning. Very windy, modified choke, 1 oz 6 shot (kept it a little closer to what I'll be hunting with). Shot a first round 14, then 11 in doubles. I suck at skeet (there are witnesses) so it was nice I was able to come...

    What a evening

    Best hunting post so far this season. It's going to take a hell of a tale to beat this one. Well done, dad. Congrats. Thanks for sharing it with us. Let me be the first to say, "I don't see a tag in that picture!" ;-)

    My dog is going blind PRA

    I don't have much experience, but my initial inclination is to work easy fields with soft grass, solid ground, and little barbed wire. If you've got a whistle, you can be his eyes. As a kid we lost our springer to a heart attack/stroke when dad gave him one last hunt after years out of the...

    Winchester SX3/ Shotgun sale?

    Update: Winchester is running a factory rebate program on guns purchased between 8/1 and 9/30 so I get $75 back on the purchase of an SX3. I picked up a brand new 28/12/3.5 for $790 all said and done. It can be had for a little less but I paid the extra $25-50 to have it in time for the...

    Keep it classy Hollywood

    Precisely. I'm disappointed in you all. The takeaway from the "journalism" Guy cited should not be that all TV personalities are closet 'Sconies (even though they are). You're missing the forest for the trees. Quite literally, if you dig a hole, catch a fish, skin a deer, start a fire, or turn...

    Winchester SX3/ Shotgun sale?

    I heard the fine for hunting quackers with lead is about $75 and a non-criminal violation. That's tempting. Alas, what would I tell the kids? Daddy is a rotten apple? Nyet.

    Winchester SX3/ Shotgun sale?

    I thought of a 4th reason for 3.5" shells: flock shooting snows. You ever jump over a dam or out of a corn field on a flock of snows? A wall of white gets up in front of you and all you can do is hold the gun out and fire 3 times, then go collect a dozen birds. More steel in the air = more dead...

    Winchester SX3/ Shotgun sale?

    wait, so you never use 3.5"? I don't get out to hunt too often and I seldom get out 3.5" shells, but theoretically, I can think of 3 reasons for 3.5" shells: 1. The bird continues its forward momentum as the string of shot makes impact. The shot cloud is longer and will therefore cover a...

    Winchester SX3/ Shotgun sale?

    Go bounce BBs off a 20 lb Canada with 3" and tell me if it's desirable. :-D Stopped at Scheels to chat with a sales guy. Even on sale they're not within $100 of what I'd pay online. I don't mind spending money at Scheels, it's the kick in the nuts I don't care for. Guy told me the 3.5" black...

    Winchester SX3/ Shotgun sale?

    I'm inclined to agree. I took that short little 20g beretta out for doves this weekend and I'm in love. Only thing it's missing is a raised rib. I don't believe the M2 comes in 3.5" so I'd have to look at a Super Black Eagle II. My only hesitation with a Benelli is the added recoil from the...

    Winchester SX3/ Shotgun sale?

    I need to buy one this week. The ol' Franchi warhorse just isn't cutting it. Does anyone recall if/when Scheels runs a sale on SX3s this time of year? Anyone care to talk me into a different 3.5" 12ga?

    Things I Dont Need But Want

    One of those Hoyt carbon bows. Sure they're like $1300 new, but they can be picked up used for like $600 online. I haven't bow hunted in a few years but the thought of an extra deer in the freezer and a bow that's basically as good as it gets has me really considering an irresponsible purchase.

    Equality

    THIS^^^ At the risk of hurting some feelers: Marriage rule #1: don't have sex with people you're not married to. Once you cheat, you can never uncheat. I understand we all have faults and weaknesses, but all you had to do was not have sex with people other than your wife. But maybe that bar...

    Thumbs up for LEOs

    Here's a fun idea. I'm sure Lycan is warming up his thumbs as we speak! https://sayanythingblog.com/entry/thumbs-up-law-enforcement/ Yesterday wasn’t a very fun news day, so here’s something of a palette cleanser. Anger at law enforcement has been something of a theme of late, and my good...

    Eating Drum from the Red

    Holy smokes, that's life altering right there. I had no idea when I woke up this morning that MSA would pronounce cold water drum superior table fare to walleye and perch. The whole world is upside down!!!
