RIP Garmin Inreach … iPhones to allow satellite messages in ios18
I thought that was the original roll out but with IOS 18 others would as well but I think you are correct. I think I got confused because the 14 and newer phones could do emergency SOS already but then with IOS 18 they can text as well and I thought it was IOS 18 that was allowing that but the...- npaden

RIP Garmin Inreach … iPhones to allow satellite messages in ios18
Somewhere I read that Apple is using the GlobalStar network for this. Same as the SPOT devices. When I was buying my InReach almost 10 years ago the Irridium network that InReach uses was considerably better than the GlobalStar network that SPOT was using and that's the main reason I bought an...- npaden

Meat slicer recommendations
My slicer is probably the least used of any of the processing equipment I have ever bought. It's not a way top of the line one so maybe if I had one of those I would use it more, but then I would need space to put it because those are heavy and huge. Mine is a $150ish one that specs out okay...- npaden

AFRICA! Bucket List nears... September.
You can download a VPN app for free and use it to tell Hunttalk you are from somewhere else. That’s what I did when I was in South Africa and was blocked. Kind of seems pointless to blacklist countries if someone as IT illiterate as me can just run a VPN on my phone to get around it but I...- npaden

Fun Discussion
On a bull that size you might be able to get 30 pounds of neck roasts and another 5 or 10 pounds of rib and brisket meat. I kind of think the rules should say that you have to take the neck meat. That's quite a bit of meat and generally really good for roasts or at least burger. Probably not...- npaden

Colorado gun case rules for ATV/UTV
The soft gun case I was using had the zipper go bad and so I was looking for something to replace it and was looking at some of the covers that could be used while backpacking also, but not sure if that would meet the requirements in Colorado if we had one in/on the UTV or ATV. The regulations... -

Back to New Mexico - Archery elk this time
I got hung up on that too. I wasn't sure if this was just one person or two? My cousin who is also my girlfriend who is going to be hanging out with me and the wife. If this had been a Utah thread it might have been a go. Good luck. That is some pretty country and you should see plenty of elk.- npaden

Labour Day labour...
At first glance on my phone I thought the spare tire for the trailer was the front tire of the UTV and it was hanging off the trailer deck. Been raining here so haven’t gotten much of my to do list done.- npaden

2024 Colorado leftovers and reissues
Seems like my luck lately. I guess that just gives them all another year to grow. I probably wouldn't have been able to get it bought anyway. I still have yet to ever get one to the checkout phase.- npaden

Need some HuntTalk wisdom on 5th Wheels
It is all prepped and ready to go for the generator with the button inside the trailer. The Onan fits in there perfectly. All wired up with the fuel lines already run and everything. Just got to get it put in there. My first toy hauler I got used about 6 years ago had the generator and...- npaden

Roth for a kid?
In the first post he gave the age of the kid. 16. The 24% tax bracket starts at $100k in 2024. Not a lot of 29 year olds making that in taxable income (not gross) and for sure not a 16 year old. The 12% bracket ends at $47k in 2024. Not a lot of retired folks making less than that...- npaden

Roth for a kid?
Okay, I have other things to do but I did some math. So let's say the kid has a lot of other income some how and actually owes taxes. Even crazier let's say he is all the way up in the 22% tax bracket. He takes $5,000 and invests it in a traditional IRA and saves $1,100 of taxes. He leaves...- npaden

Roth for a kid?
Does 2 + 2 = 4 for everyone? Seems like the same math to me. If you need me to I can work the math out for you. Assuming the same rate of return and the same tax rate the end result of a Roth vs pre-tax is identical. Like I said, the question is almost entirely about tax rates on making the...- npaden

Need some HuntTalk wisdom on 5th Wheels
Evidently it is the near perfect time to buy a 5th wheel toyhauler. The dealer on the new one I was looking at from the start called and asked where I was at and I told them I was strongly leaning toward buying the used one I just posted about above and they asked if there was anything they...- npaden
