Yep store bought...I think some peoples idea is that if it comes already infused with that solution you will either make it to salty or that it is simply unnecessary since it is essentially already brined.
Interesting. I'd be curious to get the final details on what happened. If he was hiking with a round in the chamber and something happened or if they were doing some sort of an "elk drive".
Did you make sure to get a turkey that wasn't basted in the 8% solution or whatever they add? I'm looking at my turkey and it says basted with up to 8% turkey broth, salt, sodium. From what I'm reading it says don't brine if you do that. I'm thinking about running out to the store to get...
Is anyone else still refreshing the leftover list? I think it is engrained in me to do it every hour or so and I'm going to have to ween myself off of it haha.
@TheNorthStar I was curious how you have liked the tent since you purchased it. I bought it and got it in the mail Sat, pitched it and it is smaller inside then I expected. I'm 6'3" and not very skinny and I think I'll need to lay diagonally in it. I was really hoping I could use it as a 2...
I didn't realize Billy Joe Shaver passed away at the end of October. If you like Waylon, Willie, and the old Outlaw guys then you have definitely heard songs he wrote.
Hahah yeah there was a rebate running if you bought the BX 5 Santium's you could get their tripod free. @schmalts gave me a hell of a deal on the binos where I couldn't pass it up but I think that rebate is done now....
I'd do exactly what @SnowyMountaineer recommended as well. I have the Vortex SS Summit tripod and have the same issues you are having. I recently got a Leupold tripod that was free with a rebate and it has the fluid panhead (I think that is what its called) and it is really nice. If you are...
Even though its car camping we usually try to keep our mornings as dish-less and quick as possible. This year I premade breakfast burritos which kept us full for longer then expected and wrapped them in foil so they only took a minute or two to heat up in the foil(eggs, egg whites, turkey...
Heck yeah! It had to be nice for you and your kids to get away and not have to wear masks for a bit. Appreciate your honesty about not being 4 miles deep and doing 3000 feet of elevation gain to. I'm trying to get my dad to burn some of his deer points and will share this story with him...
Any reason in particular whey you chose custodial accounts? Once they hit 18 or 21 depending on your state they have full control at that point and can use the funds on anything.... think they might choose funding spring break over retirement? I like your idea of letting them choose some...
I saw this sad news story today. https://kdvr.com/news/local/hunter-fatally-shot-near-kremmling/
They said the incident took place an hour and a half before anyone could call for help. Just a reminder of how important an InReach can be. I always struggle with trying to balance making my pack...
Congratulations on a successful hunt. Do you mind sharing what the written warning was for? I feel like you did everything right here and I would have come to the same conclusion that the calf was probably what you shot the day before given how it was acting.
I'm not sure if anyone else posted this but I saw a news story related to the Cameron Peak fire and what some of the collared elk did in response to it. I haven't listened to the podcast yet but there is a short youtube video in the link as well...
