    Venison Stock

    Eventually I'll fork over the money for a canner, I know I'll use it enough. Wish list is just a little too long 😆

    Not acidic enough for a safe water bath canning

    Venison Stock

    Biggest decision I have to make now is whether I want a stock or consumé. Picked up a pack of a dozen Quart wide-mouth jars with lids for only $12 at Tractor Supply a couple days ago. Original plan was to 3/4 fill the jars, let cool and then freeze. (Read: too poor for pressure canner).

    Bend Over

    I'm still in the camp of chiropractors are BS. When you get cracked and popped, endorphins are released by your body. Sure you feel good then, but that feeling goes away. Next thing you know, you're back at the chiro forking over $50+ a week

    Another Year of Memories Made

    The blind was not what I originally had expected. Someone had gone through the trouble (and I mean trouble) to bring a floating blind back into this oxbow. A boat hide was lean-too'ed off the back. After dropping decoys quickly we pulled up and got into the blind. There were battery operated...

    Pick me out a set of waders

    How do they fair warmth wise up in WI? I've been unsure about them and other similar options due to them being totally uninsulated in the body. Are the boots themselves insulated?

    Pick me out a set of waders

    Breathables with a zip out liner. Last set were Frogg Togg Chesapeakes that lasted 2.5 seasons. Just bought a set of FA (I believe the Acuta's). Only one hunt in them thus far, seems comparable to my Frogg Toggs but I caught them on sale for $170 vs $450 they want for the new version of...

    Another Year of Memories Made

    The next morning was Kentucky's second annual Veteran's duck season. Me and Nathan went out to a new spot a buddy of his had told us about that neither of us had ever been to before. I'm not usually fond of doing this, but have had absolutely terrible luck at picking out spots to duck hunt. We...

    Another Year of Memories Made

    I gathered up my stuff and climbed down. I started slowly sneaking towards the other stand. Stopping to attempt to glass every couple steps, preferably near larger trees. Nathan's stand is located in a small valley along a shallow creek bottom, with two hilltops converging near by. As I get...

    Processing Time - Start to Finish?

    Welp from 5 to 8 I finished up what turned out to be 3 quarters (don't ask how I miss counted 🙃) Tomorrow I'll stop by the local butcher and get a bag of beef fat and start measuring out for 10% add in. I used to be a firm no-fat-added kinda guy, but have slowly adopted adding in some fat.

    Perhaps I can invest in a better grinder
