I have an ebike (Radrover) that I use sometimes to simply transport myself, weapon and small daypack back to stands on back of the farms, etc., typically under a mile one way in relatively flat farm country. Mostly just ride the thing around on the county roads for fun.
Don't think the...
Internet was out so no TV. Pulled out the old classic "A Treasury of Outdoor Life" which is an old collection of their best magazine articles, going way back.
Great book.
Also re-read Horn of the Hunter by Robert Ruark.
I've trapped a bunch of them and they can be violent, mean little SOB's in a trap.
Often wonder if I'm gonna get them shot before they pull loose and eat me.
It aint a proper whitetail video unless it includes:
* Heavy metal loud intro music
* A scantly clad young gal in camo hunting with the boys
* Accessing your stand via a UTV or electric bike
* Hunting out of a $4,000 fancy elevated blind
* "I smoked him!!" after the arrow is released
* A phony...
I can't hardly choke down any of the craft beers, Natty Light or Old Milwaukee taste better to me. Good old fashioned American beers, thanks.
On the other hand .... with exception of the real sweet stuff, there are not too many liquors I don't enjoy.
Yep, the 401k gurus and financial planners at annual meetings always tell you to plan on needing 70% of what you are spending during your last working years.
100% Or more is a much better plan.
My dad (now 93) talks about a lot of friends and acquaintances that went through this.
Retire prematurely, living big and large, second vacation homes, extensive travel, new cars, golf memberships, dining & partying, etc. then live a lot longer than they had saved for and wind up in their...
I got out at the end of 2017 at 57. Still have a little part time paying work helping out with a company I sit on the board of directors on, but that only takes a couple days per month. Also have tons of little projects to keep me busy living on a farm. I enjoy just plain old physical...
Don't own any of the low end bolt action rifles that fill all the box stores, but as far as the lower cost rifles go ...... Savage, Remington, Mossberg, Ruger, etc.
I think Mossberg looks to be built as well or better than the rest.
If I was purchasing an excavator with brush mower or forestry mulcher, I'd be sure to get something big enough so you have some decent reach.
Problem with the mini's and these tools is lack of reach.
Comparing Student Loans to PPE Loans is silly.
It's true many of the PPE loans handed out were un-needed and and also true that very few will be paid back by the borrowers. The industries that really needed this help were retailers, food service, travel, motels, etc., however they gave the...
After reading all of this and discussions with my whiskey consultants, we have elected to forego the bacon wrap in fear it will flame up.
I like the idea of basting, letting it get a nice "bark", then wrap in foil.
Thanks!
So I've got a nice hind quarter (minus lower leg / shank) in the freezer from a nice whitetail doe to do on the rotisserie in a couple days.
Here's my plan:
After thawed, poke holes in the thick areas and insert cloves of garlic.
Rub the thing down with olive oil, rosemary, garlic and a few...
