    NM draw is open.

    I applied for a muzzleloader tag for first three choices. But not necessarily because of the rule change, I just wanted those tags.

    Hunting Turkeys in the Gila

    My observations from the past few years is they're fairly active on the south side of the forest when the season opens. The higher country has had more snow this year than in recent years. Not sure if that means they'll be slower to get active up there or not. Usually by mid-April we're well...

    Home Inspections

    Depending on what state you're in, a septic inspection (in addition to a clean out) may be required separately from the home inspection. It was when I bought in NM and the seller was required to pay for it. That was just the tank, not the drain lines. Another item on our last home purchase (as...

    Lithium vs AGM battery for camper

    Good info. One more question, can AGM be mounted inside the camper, such as under the dinette seat where my inverter is located? I know the old style lead acid batteries needed to be vented, seems like maybe AGM do not? If I'm paying for lithium, I'd definitely put them inside. I'd worry about...

    Lithium vs AGM battery for camper

    I'm interested in hearing experiences with lithium vs. AGM batteries for a camper or RV. I'm looking to upgrade my old marine battery to something with a much higher amp hours rating to allow for extended use while on trips. We rarely if ever stay at camp grounds with shore power. Seems a 200 ah...

    Woodworking Hunt Talkers?

    Cedar lined white oak blanket chest. The oak was milled from a tree on my family's farm in the early 90's. Took me far too long to make a suitable place to store afghans from grandmothers and great grandmothers.

    Maximum hearing protection and tinninitis

    I've been visiting an audiologist lately to get hearing aids (way younger in life than I would have imagined). I asked about hearing protection for shooting and working in the wood shop. She took a custom mold of my ear canals and sent the molds off for custom ear plugs. They are far superior to...

    Bird dog PSA - Grass awns

    Dang, hoping for a fully recovery for your hunting buddy. A few weeks ago after getting back to the truck and my pants looking like this, I spent two hours at home picking awns out of my dog's fur. And again the next night. I know I still missed some. There are more quail at that spot but I...

    Paying a moving company worth it?

    I've moved a bunch, the last three times on the government's dime including up to AK and back. I will reiterate what others have said, get rid of what you don't need before you move it. Seems in my case that outdoor items take up the most space. Certain items a moving company generally won't...

    How Clean is Clean, Muzzleloaders

    Years ago I had a TC Z5 muzzleloader. I shot it at the range one day, didn't clean it as thoroughly as I should have, and put it away for months in the safe. When I went to shoot it again the barrel was pitted something fierce. That was with the old style Pyrodex powder which I no longer use...

    Home Heating Questions

    When I lived in Alaska the state had a home energy rebate program. As part of the program they conduct an energy audit, gave you some options on where to improve energy efficiency, and then conducted a post-improvement audit after you made your upgrades / fixes. Your rebate depended on how much...

    Seed removal from clothing

    What tips do you all have for removing seeds from clothing? Not sure what kind of grass I got into today but the seed heads were brutal. Sharp enough to pierce skin. Anything that works quicker other than individually plucking them out? P.S. the walk was still worth it.
