    What bone saw do you recommend??

    Last time I needed to cut through bone I used a cordless reciprocating saw. If you are worried about weight (I know you said you weren't) this stuff is awesome. https://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html?pgguid=30e07aab-7b6a-11d5-a192-00b0d0204ae5 I think the Wyoming Saw is what you are looking for.

    BoreSighting with Muzzle Break Installed

    I haven't used a boresighter in over a decade. I brought a large roll of freezer paper to the range instead and slapped a 1" dot on it at 50 yards. If your initial shot is off more than 16" at 50 yards I don't know what to tell you.

    Lion Hunter's Nightmare

    Before reading the story I looked at the pictures and said "barbed wire." I had a German shorthair get ripped open a couple of times on fences. Nice thing about having a wife who worked in the operating room is she can stitch up a dog without the vet bills. Hounds have to be some of the...

    Black bear gutless method?

    I've used the gutless method on bears before, works just like any other game. Yes, they have tenderloins that are worth cutting out. I try to use nitrile gloves but I don't always have them with me. If I don't have gloves I try not to touch my skin until I've cleaned my hands.

    Bears o'plenty

    I don't think any other big game meat varies as much as bear. The flavor is very dependent on their diet. Mountain bear that's been eating acorns, wild grape and berries tastes a lot different than coastal bear that's been fattening up on salmon.

    Need some load development opinions

    From what you describe this could be a heat issue. As you shoot, things heat up, metal expands, and something tightens up and affects accuracy. Once the accuracy starts to go let the gun sit for an hour to cool then shoot again to see if accuracy problems remain.

    Retirement: When would you like to retire? Do you have a plan to get there?

    I'm planning on being semi-retired by 60. I don't think I'll ever fully retire. Some of my investments (Commercial realty and ag.) mean I'll always have some work to do, and I'm fine with that. I'm currently 50, debt free, and enjoying life but I can see slowing down some. I want to get my...

    Anybody else muzzleloader hunting this year

    Heck yes, I'm hunting muzzleloader this year. Give me six inches of snow, 30mph wind and single digit temps during the late muzzleloader season and I'm in deer hunting heaven.

    Big Bass

    I know, you were expecting a seven pound largemouth. Frankly, I don't care if I never catch another largemouth. This is a yellow bass, and at around 12.5" it's about as big as they generally get. I think the state record is around a pound and a half. My daughter pulled this one out of the...

    What type of hunting knife?

    I've used 420, 440, O1, ATS34 and S30v. I'm not picky but my go to is a fixed blade with a clip point in ATS34. Blade length is a little over 4", brass and diamond wood handle. I don't think I've ever had to sharpen a knife during a hunt, including the softer steels.

    Boat Paint Scratches - Tips Please.

    As far as priming, follow paint directions. Some paint designed for aluminum (like the one I linked) doesn't require primer. Instead you acid etch the aluminum then just apply the paint. I used vinegar, as suggested by the manufacturer, to etch my boat before paint. It worked great and has...

    Boat Paint Scratches - Tips Please.

    If you want it to look like new you are going to have to spend the money on the paint to match. Of course you're going to have to sand it and fill it, then sand some more, then buff it. You'll have to buff the entire boat or it won't match the one really shiny spot where you touched up. Or...

    Why do you hunt?

    Someone who has never experienced the thrill of the hunt can't possibly understand why we do it.

    Favorite catfish bait

    #1 for me is night crawlers. #2 is cut bait, specifically, I like using carp. I've also caught them on cocktail shrimp, hot dogs, shad, minnows, leeches...hell, I think their may be a longer list of what they don't eat than what they do. Oddly, I've never had luck with stink bait.
