    What kind of gun is good for a cabin person living deep in the American boonies?

    Can you aim and shoot it with one eye even?

    My philosophy about gender in language.

    The lady in the pink blouse was in the supermarket with her little boy in the wagon. (this sounds proper)

    My philosophy about gender in language.

    The word GIRL should not be used any more often for a young female than BOY is used for a young male in the English-speaking culture. Formal gender words should not be mixed with informal gender words. Formal gender pairs: man and woman boy and girl lady and gentleman man and girl (a grown...

    What kind of gun is good for a cabin person living deep in the American boonies?

    A flintlock musket? A dragoon for horse or mule back? How about the Hawken 50 like Jeremiah Johnson found on the dead man? What kind of gun was that that the boy in Old Yeller used to put down the dog? Seemed like a fine old rifle to keep above the door in the old homestead.

    The critter squatting is even hairier than the critter laying down.

    Old yeller dog. Black-mouth cur. About a versatille American boonies dog as there ever was.

    What kind of gun is good for a cabin person living deep in the American boonies?

    A Henry Long Ranger in 223 Rem/5.56 NATO might be great for fox, coyote or coon in the hen house. A 12-ga. with slugs or a Governor with .45 Colt hardcast should take care of Squatch or bear. Savage 99 in a deer caliber like .308 or .3oo Savage might cover wolf, cougar, deer, moose and elk...

    What kind of gun is good for a cabin person living deep in the American boonies?

    The Mossberg 500 I have is my dove gun. I also have a Remingtom 870 police pump 12. That should be a lot of gun for many duties on farm, ranch or rural homestead. Different shells make this gun quite versatile. I also have a Smith & Wesson Governor. Great holster sidearm in much of woodsy...

    What kind of gun is good for a cabin person living deep in the American boonies?

    Tom was out hunting trophy "toms" if you can believe that! But all cougar jokes aside.....oh, you though I meant longbeard turkeys......well, anyway..... On other gun and hunting forums but I've been getting booted out of there or having my threads deleted. I was hoping to get taken seriously...

    What kind of gun is good for a cabin person living deep in the American boonies?

    I was wondering while watching the first five minutes of the video posted here. There is a man living out in the North American boonies with a hound dog, a bluetick I think, and at least one horse. The horse spooks of course when a big wild animal comes near. The dog, seeming like a coward...

    Supposed "food shortages" in America and higher food prices. How do they affect hunting?

    Meat, dairy and eggs are essential to the strength and health of my own human body. My body doesn't fare well on just rabbit food. I will hurt badly without significant animal proteins.

    Supposed "food shortages" in America and higher food prices. How do they affect hunting?

    America has a serious case of Bidenitis. There might come a point in time where folks will take food, livestock and game outside of the realm of law and regulation depending upon how rotten things really get.

    Supposed "food shortages" in America and higher food prices. How do they affect hunting?

    Is this situation driving YOU to hunt even more than usual? Are more Americans now going to take up hunting to get meat? It's a tricky question. Higher gasoline prices may deter some from outdoor activities also.

    Who here lives and hunts in New Hampshire or other parts of New England?

    In short, life is MORE than just a BEACH. New England, then, might just not be worth it even living close to an ocean. Oklahoma where I live now also has horrible summer humidity not to mention flash floods and tornadoes. Boise, Idaho climate is dry as a bone but real estate there now is...

    Who here lives and hunts in New Hampshire or other parts of New England?

    New England then is probably not the best hunting area in America. Doves are out there right off the bat. It might be a better area for fishing, snowmobiling, beach-going and boating. Maple syrup production is the thing there too. Probably little public deer lands in New England. I would only...

    Who here lives and hunts in New Hampshire or other parts of New England?

    Here is a good video for Lyme disease mitigation. Deer ticks are most active during the warm summer season. My dogs and I would most likely NOT be out of the woods during the heat season and so more water activities like beach-going, boating and swimming would be in effect during that season...

    Anyway, I want to hear from New England outdoorsmen.

    Who here lives and hunts in New Hampshire or other parts of New England?

    I don't care for the climate in the South except maybe for the beaches in Florida during the wintertime. The tornadoes, high humidity and hurricanes are not my bag, and neither are the alligators. I much prefer to say something like POCK the CAH than say something like up the road yonder...

    Who here lives and hunts in New Hampshire or other parts of New England?

    I can only smile that the law in New Hampshire observes my RIGHT to do so anyway. Pirates may come ashore at any time. Then what about 'Jaws'?
