    Winter is sure wearing on the deer!

    It's only mid January and the deer are hitting the bales in the backyard pretty good. That usually doesn't happen until late February or March when they're scrapping the bottom of the food barrel. The half bushel of corn along with the bales should get them by, but if any more show up, I'll...

    Anybody use these cranks before??

    I bought an old tackle box to use for tools and these things were in it. They are Matzuo brand and have flared gills. Weird design and I've never heard of them or used them. Are they any good? If someone has used these, how deep to they run and did you like them? Thanks fellas! Stay Warm!!

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    Decided to do something a bit wacky this weekend and it turned out AWESOME!!! Gained a couple dozen pounds "sampling" the finished product. Just thought I'd share a few photos. Try not to drool on your keyboards. (Grin) Oh and this is NOT all the meat. Just a sampling......

    Blizzard?? What Blizzard??

    I think the weather folks were a bit over exuberant on the warnings. We got a nice 3 inch blanket of white this morning, very little wind, and a balmy 27 degrees. Hope it stays like this. I can handle these kinds of winter weather warnings. Very Not Bad!!! Hope all is well out in NDA land...

    Shed a tear and cracked an extra beer yesterday.

    We were down into the 50's in the house yesterday morning and I was FORCED to start the furnace. You all know what that means so I won't expand. I was hoping to be able to hold off until after deer killing, but Ma Nature has other plans I guess. Cold is expensive.....and SUCKS!!! Cry session...

    How many men still know how to butcher???

    In the last few years dealing with youngsters and hunting in MN, I've come to realize that VERY FEW of those that deer hunt know how to skin and butcher a deer, let alone a cow, hog, or other big critter. Most seem to take their deer to a locker to be processed. Many know how to breast out a...

    Now I feel a bit of what Viet Nam Vets must have felt.

    I didn't understand before, but I do now. To leave your families behind and travel to a foreign land to fight, to be in fear for your life, to sweat, to cry, to bleed, to watch your brothers die and not know when it was going to be your turn, to mourn their loss, to return home to a different...

    Were anyone's ancestors just a bunch of Schlubs..........

    Some of my family is big into genealogy stuff and it never fails that "we" or "they" are descended from some "royalty", nobility, or somebody famous, but can't prove it with documents or facts. Talking with other folks that do the same thing for their family, they too, all seem to have royalty...

    Question for those with painted skulls.

    We have some folks that want to paint the skulls of their trophies, but we don't know if the chemicals we use to whiten the skulls will jack up the paint over time. Any of you members of the peanut gallery have any insights into this?? Thanks in Advance!!
