    Ha!! You guys crack me up!! I'm still around. Keeping an eye on you miscreants is damn near a full time job. No snowden or masks on my fingers.

    Pickled Sausage

    Never heard of such a thing. However, in the few experiences I've had making pickled meats, fat was always the nemesis. Fat doesn't seem to pickle very well due to the pickling solution not being able to get into the fat. With that in mind, you may want to find or make some very lean sausage...

    Skull dark after boiling?!?!

    Here is some of the displays we've done. The blue and red ones are plain felt and the ones with the plaques are in leather with rope. They might give you some ideas on how to enjoy your trophies. The tag goes in the back. Good Luck!!

    Favorite deer rifle

    The older I get the smaller the caliber I seem to like. Getting punched in the shoulder and having my ears ring to shoot a deer just isn't as appealing today as it once was.

    Skull dark after boiling?!?!

    For the horns, just screw them onto plywood in the configuration you want, put plaster of paris over the bone up to the burrs on the antlers. Shape the p.o.p. to resemble the forehead of the deer and let dry. Sand down the burrs of p.o.p. and clean out any that got onto the horns. Remove the...

    2020 Rut Thoughts?

    Knowing what caliber of buck you require, I have NO DOUBT you would have taken either one of these guys. They were WIDE from antler to ass. Both were impressive critters. Didn't even think of filming. It was the kind of thing you just sit there slack jawed and watch. Nature at it's finest!!!

    2020 Rut Thoughts?

    Watched two HEAVYWEIGHTS battle it out over a doe last evening just off the end of my driveway, so I'd say the rut is still ongoing at this point. Two BIG 10 pointers and I mean BIG boys. These bucks were 5 and half years old or better and boy did the dirt fly. They were twice the size of the...

    Anyone make pemmican?

    It for sure needs some "jazzing" up, no doubt about it. After doing some research on recipes, I decided I could add the fruit and other stuff when I break out the main block. Seems the fruit and other additives shorten the shelf life of the pemmican significantly. I did see honey in one...

    Anyone make pemmican?

    I dug this thread up from the archives as I made some of this the other day. Not Bad. Wouldn't want to have to live off this, but it's not bad. VERY rich due to the beef fat. I didn't add any fruit or other stuff as some other recipes call for. Just meat and fat. I could see where this...

    Time dilemma: Hunt now or wait

    I love it when a plan comes together. Duckslayer100 told me he could only hunt in the morning which SUCKS for the stand I wanted him in due to the fact that the deer wander all over the place with no rhyme or reason. Sitting in the morning usually ends up with a guy listening to snorts...

    Time dilemma: Hunt now or wait

    If you want, just come to my place and shoot your deer. Got LOTS of does coming in every day along with a few small bucks, but nothing over 75 inches. Take whatever tickles your fancy. Give me a call (you still have the number right?) if you want and I'll do what I can to help fill your...

    Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (EHD) in SW ND

    EHD vs. CWD. Which one KILLS more deer?? Which one is guesswork based on speculation, few actual dead deer, and results in MORE regulations as compared to which one is based on LOTS of ACTUAL DEAD DEER FOUND which results in fewer deer tags available??? Oh don't mind me, I'm just an old...

    Ice fishing...In October?

    I was going to post something about cold water safety and evaluating between the worth of walleye vs the worth your life, but given how those kinds of posts are met with ridicule, admonishment, and sentiments of unmasculinity, I'll refrain from such foolishness and just say "Good Luck!!"

    Lightweight treestand

    This will sound a bit off, but bear with me. The most portable tree stand system I've ever seen consisted of a pair of tree climbing spikes and a ratchet on seat. The whole system weighed about 6 lbs. The guy that used it would find a tree he wanted to set up in, strap on the tree spikes, and...
