    What Chainsaw Do You Run?

    I really appreciate all this feedback. I’m leaning heavily toward the ms271 farm boss with an 18” bar. I’m not the most experienced, but want something with enough power to do the work. I think this saw is a pretty good fit for the price

    Corona virus

    Living in NYC has me a little worried, but odds are that if we get it we’ll be ok. There’s a lot of dangerous shit out there...this is just the thing we are focused on. If I got an alert on my phone every time someone died from the flu or a car crash I’d probably be afraid to leave the house...

    What Chainsaw Do You Run?

    I’d be using it for the occasional projects and cutting wood. Early spring and late fall it will get most of it’s use. Probably not going to use it more than a couple times a month. I’d like to be under $400

    What Chainsaw Do You Run?

    I know there’s truck saw thread, but that’s not what I’m after. I’m looking to buy my first chainsaw. I’ve run a handful, but it’s time to get my own. I’m looking for something that’s well rounded. I fell a decent amount of small trees, and there are a couple maples of 24” or so on our property...

    camp pics

    Our cabin in the Catskills of NY. Bought it from some older fellas and fixed it up ourselves. Planning on moving from the city and hoping to make it a full time home soon (at least until we can buy something more substantial). Going to be hard to keep access clear all winter, though.

    Will market volatility and or heath concerns with the virus influence your western hunting plans

    Best thing I could do is leave my place in NYC and head west to hunt. Still a toss up if I’ll make it out this year, but that decision has nothing to do with coronavirus and the markets. If it really hits the fan I’ll be holed up in my camp in upstate NY.

    Buy Now or Later — Tires

    Did you run 265/75?? It’s quite a jump From the 245s that came with the truck, but there are a ton more options in that size as opposed to 265/70. I’m considering a c or d load tire if I can find one.

    Buy Now or Later — Tires

    Anyone tried running 265/75-16 on a stock Tacoma? Little worried it’ll crowd the wheel wells and rub when I’m off-road. 265/70-16 are hard to find in a C or E rated

    that’s a tough burn, man! Wish I had haggled that at the dealership, but I got a good price on the truck

    Buy Now or Later — Tires

    They’re P-rated. It’s tough to find LT tires in the size I’m looking for though. Might have to go Coopers instead of the wild peaks or try to fit a 265/75 on my stock ride.

    More truck photos because it’s the off season, and I don’t have anything better to do:

    Buy Now or Later — Tires

    Alright, ladies and gents, I know tires come up enough on here, so I’m not going to ask your opinion on brands. I already know I’m going with the 265/70-16 Falken Wildpeak AT3W, anyway. Instead, I need you to help convince myself and my old lady (she’s bringing me down on this one) that...

    Critters ATTACKING your game cameras?

    Had two of mine ripped down and stomped by bears last year. One of them actually ripped it down then a couple days later came back and messed with it and stomped it into the mud. I’ve found if you put them up 6-8’ or so it makes a difference. They don't seem to notice them as easily as when...

    Sing your Tikka praises!

    I’m a sucker for a wood stock, so I wouldn’t get rid of the featherweight. Why not keep it and add a synthetic tikka to the safe? I have a t3x hunter in 30-06. My experience with the tikka is that it’s a comfortable gun and shoots well. I’d like to add a 7 mag tikka t3x lite ss to the gun safe...

    Should Have Bought A Tundra

    No truck lives up to the price tag they stick on the windshield.

    Spending Money on Good Boots

    I’ve had good luck with my 400g Danner Alsea. I’ve run them for a few hunting seasons and have been happy with the comfort, warmth, and they’re decently waterproof. That being said, I hunt much smaller eastern mountains, but I certainly don’t baby them. As I’ve gotten more serious in the last...
