    Fixing social security

    Right. If it's on the internet and if the government tells us it's untrue, then it's gospel. Sorry, at this point in my life I don't believe shit. I will stick with my gut, which has rarely led me astray in my 57 years in this planet.

    Fixing social security

    I'd happily take what I paid into it and what my business paid into it on my behalf (which I owned) interest free. Also, here is a novel idea. Stop robbing it. And instead of funding crap like monies paid to Ukrainian oligarchs, pay back to SS all the f'n money you stole. Problem solved.

    Clear pictures of wildlife?

    I should also note I have a 1.6x magnifier. It comes in so handy for wildlife photography. Focus becomes more finicky as well as heart distortion. But it has been a game changer. I picked it up used on rokslide. They will pop up once in a while.

    Clear pictures of wildlife?

    There's a lot of choices. I'm using a sirui st124 with a va5 fluid head. It gets the job done. It will shake a bit when the winds are high, but I can stabilize it by hanging some weight.

    Clear pictures of wildlife?

    Kowa88. Samsung phone. I use voice commands to take the pictures. Take a bunch of pics, tweaking focus each time. Lock the focus on the camera and use the scope's focus knob. Good tripod. Remove anything on scope that can move like straps and covers that may be dangling. Mornings are best...

    First bear

    We got a length of 7' 4". Didn't get a width. We will do it when the hide comes back. I think that will be a while.

    First bear

    Official measurement completed for B&C. 21 2/16. He made the all time book. Puts him in the 8th largest for Montana. Only eleven bears in the all time for Montana (I think). Pretty cool.

    Fly Rod help

    Middle of the road, lot of bang for the buck, Orvis Clearwater series. It's just a good rod. Not sure if you need a reel and line, but the whole thing can be had for 400 bucks. I flyfish year round on the Yellowstone. I put in a lot of days and I'm not kind to my equipment. I use a 6wt as...

    Davis Tent

    The tent came a few days ago. Finally had a chance to take a look at everything. I'm impressed. Everything right down to the bags for the poles are just well done. Can't wait to set it up. I just need another ten emt pipes to get delivered to my local hardware store and I'm good to go. Plan...

    Montana Mule Deer Mismanagement

    We took a hike yesterday in some rolling hill country not far from Big Timber. The number of coyote tracks were incredible. We are thinking of bringing the caller and a couple rifles there next week.

    Spend my money on a chronograph

    Not even worth debating. Garmin Xero. It has made everything obsolete. Ya, it's that good. I own one. It has made the process of using a chrono actually fun. Stupid easy to use and dead nuts accurate. App works flawlessly as well.

    Water bladders

    I never clean mine. I have one that has to be ten years old. I throw it in the freezer after using it. It lives there until next time it's needed.

    Water bladders

    Thanks all! Good to here. @Stone_Ice_1 , I have been using bladders for mountain biking for decades. When it's really cold I blow into the tube, forcing all the water out of it. Stops the freezing problem. Also works if you have a mouthpiece that tends to dribble. Just blow air into it.

    Water bladders

    Those of you using water bladders in your packs, no condensation issues, clothes getting wet, etc? I just sewed up one to test out.
