    Reloading for a beginner.

    I'm about 4 months ahead of you. I went with the RCBS Rebel Plus Kit. It's got pretty much everything you need and nothing that you don't. Don't go with the "Master" kit as there's a bunch of fluff in it. If you are a veteran you can get a nice discount from RCBS. Great detailed (6 hours)...

    How many days do you spend scouting a given area?

    A co-worker and I are looking to do a deer hunt in his home state of SC. We’re looking at a couple of areas in Sumter National Forest. were going to scout these areas this summer, but don’t know how long/many days we should spend at each spot. I am thinking maybe 1 full day at each site; 2 if...

    Checked off a box on the ol bucket list! PADI open water certified!

    My wife got her PADI certification in Monterrey Bay in the kelp fields. Water temp was 56º. She said it was like joining the Navy Seals there.

    Checked off a box on the ol bucket list! PADI open water certified!

    Two places that are good first dives in the Keys are: 1. Key Largo: John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park. Go with Quiesence Dive Services. They go out in "six packs" meaning maximum of only six divers so you're not on a cattle boat. Shallow dives (35-50') and a lot to see. 2. Islamorada...

    Giving some thought to moving to S. Dakota

    By the time I'm ready to make the move, we'll be buying a home and leaving the RV down in FL for the winter. I'm looking at a couple of States, but I keep coming back to SD in my searches.

    Giving some thought to moving to S. Dakota

    Thanks for all the input. I was born and raised in Buffalo, NY so know the snow and did 2 years at Offutt AFB in NE so know the cold. For Nov - Feb I'll be down in FL but will come back for a week or two of hunting.

    Giving some thought to moving to S. Dakota

    I currently live in FL, but the hunting down here is not great. The fishing however, is good as is the boating. I am a full-time RV'er (2020 44' Riverstone 39FK) and it is very easy to become a resident of S. Dakota. I enjoy hunting duck, geese, upland game, deer, and elk. With that as a...

    Underwood Xtreme Penetrator or Buffalo Bore Dangerous Game ammo?

    Thanks. Yeah, I’m using Buffalo Bore in all my other “must work” applications, and I think I’ll stick with that.

    Help Me Pick a Fish Finder

    I have a Garmin echoMAP 74sv with side-scan sonar. The resolution on mine isn’t that great so it’s more of a novelty. The other two modes are great though. Nice large screen, and with NMEA 2000 I can tie my engine into it as well.

    Ever been asked by an outfitter to show your hunter safety training course certificate?

    I keep a digital copy of mine on my phone, but I've only been asked once and that was a long time ago. Got me thinking, anybody ever get asked to show it?

    Underwood Xtreme Penetrator or Buffalo Bore Dangerous Game ammo?

    I've always been a fan of Buffalo Bore ammo, but I've begun looking at Underwood ammo. I just purchased 40 rounds of Xtreme Penetrator in 10mm for my revolver and am impressed with it. I've got 60 rounds of Buffalo Bore Supercharged lead-free 30-06 that I'm currently sighting in, and have the...
