    Are we haggling over the wrong things?

    Was thinking about this the other day. Billionaires and investors have been increasingly converting their stocks into long term assets that have a fixed supply (land and to a lesser degree, houses). You can imagine a scenario where the US begins to look like Europe with our own "landed gentry"...

    Are we haggling over the wrong things?

    Yes, definitely projecting my worldview, which is based on 40 years of experiencing most of what life has to offer, including indulging in my own "freedom", and many many years of contemplation and, I'll admit, much naval gazing. I've traveled, I've done most things. And in the end all is...

    Are we haggling over the wrong things?

    Affluent countries have lower than replacement fertility rates. Most of their population growth (including the US) is from immigration. And the growth they are experiencing from births is increasingly driven by immigration. This isn't xenophobia (I'm perfectly happy to replace white people with...

    No Optics on ML in NM 2023

    It really depends on what the management goals are. In my state there isn't much limited entry. We have a long rifle season. Tons of tags. All this because we have too many deer for the amount of habitat (and cwd). Many eastern states are like that. For ML season u can use pretty much any new...

    Why does it have to be this way?

    I'm a dark meat guy and I love a turkey leg. Deep fried turkey is also really good. My dad makes the best pecan pie in the world. Corn casserole. Sweet potato casserole. Dressing with cranberry sauce. Never eaten much wild game at Thanksgiving but my Mamaw would sometimes fry squirrel for me...

    History of Eastern and Western Style Antler Point Count

    OK my theory: When hunting gained truly mass appeal post WW2 the US population was concentrated in areas where WT deer existed but in small #s compared to now. Like 10% of what they are now (in the east). So during the 1950s it would have been rare to see a 1.5 or 2.5 year old main frame 8...

    Sorry, I thought I used enough sarcasm quotes to make it obvious I was joking. Satire is notoriously difficult on the internet.

    Well happy friggin election Oregon... :(

    Haha, no u simple minded pleb. What you fail to understand is you are using this thing called the "slippery slope fallacy". You see, sophisticated hunters know that some rights must be given up in order for us to keep other rights that are more important to us. Those rights will NOT be...

    I think I hate ATVs.

    In my state u can't take them off established roads on public land. IOW, u can't take them anywhere u can't also take a truck (except for a handful of established atv trails). Sometimes people will go around or over the mounds and gates but it works for the most part, rendering them superfluous.

    Starbucks Strike

    I don't really care either way about unions. Some are probably really good and others have probably suffered from a great deal of mission creep. I belong to a trade guild of sorts that does a LOT of lobbying that does matter to us. As a thought experiment, what would happen to innovation...

    How to hunt if you can't stomach gutting

    I realize we've given up on the OP, but I've found that if I do the gutless with the goal of maximizing meat recovery (not just 4 quarters and backstraps, but flanks, inner loin, ribs, etc.) I end up spending about as much time around the guts as just straight up gutting an animal. Maybe I'm...

    First animal harvested..now I’m meat skittish

    In all seriousness it seems u are most concerned with risk of contamination due to a pregnant wife. I remember when my wife was pregnant we were very cautious about that sort of thing. Over time I've become more comfortable handling and consuming meat that is cooked more on the rare side...
