    Black Bear Hunting for a New Hunter

    Its enough for close range baiting but I'd pick some ammo that will together very well, ideally you want penetration even if it hits a shoulder going in that goes all the way through the other side. They can be notorious for entrance holes plugging up and being harder to find if you don't have...

    Solar Energy Comments due April 18, 2024

    Can only speak for my local area, but there's been a dramatic shift on an analogous (in my mind) subject--crypto mining--lately. Huge support--new jobs, more money carried the day with locals for some time. Then as they realize all the associated problems--noise, HUGE power consumption...

    Solar Energy Comments due April 18, 2024

    Or have a hope of at least listening to us. Those stuck in extremes have p poor listening skills, unless it's something that justifies their existing bias.

    US Forest Service reduced funding for 2025 implications

    Lots of timber sales using GNA in my state. Not all are beneficial to hunting or fish and wildlife.

    US Forest Service reduced funding for 2025 implications

    Brother used to work as an auditor at the DOD contract audit agency. I feel confident in validating the worst rating for efficiency in all of government.

    What The Hell is Science-Based Management?

    And attacking the science when it doesn't fit a desired result or belief says something about values.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    The pandemic led to increased wages across the country. Some states raised minimum wages in there too. The pandemic allowed people to work from home (which saves some HUGE dollars) and opened up employees eyes about mortality and other job options--and accelerated the pace of retirement in...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    Stocks like Gevo are highly prone to policy changes. I'd sure watch as things approach in November! DJT is not going to be your friend! Any higher risk I take is in mutual funds, which since they hold multiple stocks spread out your risk. Still try to keep 90 percent or more in core/long...

    Bigger cut, market reacted down yesterday---doom and gloomers out in force. Then it's up A LOT today!

    Traded please close

    This a good deal at the original asking price based on what I see. If the seller is willing to take a bit less you'd be hard pressed to find a better one. Holding out for a 250-3000 or I'd be all over it. Someone take the temptation away!

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    If you are talking about the chance of Congress not getting it's act together and starting that kind of default, I might agree with you--except in an election year even they aren't that stupid--well maybe they are, but one thing you can count on, they want their side to win elections. One side...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    I see people making dire warnings endlessly. Even with the cheating and insider action that goes on playing wall street is easy. Buy good investments--or better yet good long term growth mutual funds or index funds--and hold them. As you get closer to needing the money you might want to...

    Peep sight trouble

    This is the principle of the peeps success...the eye does want to center the sight. I'm wondering if the OP is trying consciously to keep both in view....my eyes aren't able to use open or peeps effectively anymore but when younger I shot my Williams better after I removed the hood over the...

    Colorado relocating wolves.

    Who investigated your wolf depredation claim? What did the investigation involve?

    Colorado relocating wolves.

    From the perspective from a state that never lost its wolves and has been supporting 3000 or so of them for years, it's interesting to see parallels we went through 30 to 50 years ago being repeated.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    The likelihood of the US defaulting on its debt is extremely low. Even models continuing the current policies show it would have to grow greatly from its current level to get concerning. Not to suggest current policy is sustainable it's not, but the folks most pushing a false imminent crisis...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    What is it? 18 months seems like....since this warning was trotted out. Made a LOT of money in the market since then and sure am not alone. I do think being positioned in a more mixed position is wise for short timers, but more for the growing potential in bonds than fear of an equity slump...

    game sled, roll-up/packable type any good?

    Been using them for years for deer. Used them on smaller bears too. They absolutely allow you to drag easier than without them, not sure where those comments are coming from unless people aren't putting the slippery side down. Ideal if you have brush and logs to drag through and over. On snow...

    Kenetrek Gaiters $15 at Midway

    One for me and a couple for my son in laws too--thanks for the tip! FWIW if anyone shoots a 358 winchester they have winchester factory ammo for that very spendy hard to find caliber on sale for 1/2 off too. Might never see that again!
