    Boots for Elk Hunting?

    Get boots for the walk out, not the walk in.

    What caliber for son?

    put down the .30-06 before he gains a permanent flinch and let him run a .243 for a few years.

    Stupid is as stupid does

    Any rain in the forecast? A foot or two of extra water will make for even more enjoyable viewing.

    Rodent damage to vehicle wiring due to soy based insulation

    Uhh, it's been happening way before soy based insulation. Why do I think this is another issue the old boomers are going to start yelling about after shower heads and toilets.

    Rodent damage to vehicle wiring due to soy based insulation

    Moth balls. Never had another problem again after stashing a good number of them around the engine compartment in both mine and the wife's car.

    Rodent damage to vehicle wiring due to soy based insulation

    Yeah, I don't know about wire as food. The pack rats made a mess of my wiring harness on a '97 Ford F250. I don't think that insulation was soy based.

    Hunting season preparations, what did you do today?

    The MRI is just a formality. I'm pretty sure archery and rifle are washed out, I can't imagine holding a heavy kicker against my cut up shoulder, I'm pretty much just hoping to get on skis by Xmas. Maybe a shoulder season cow elk (I'll whisper when I say that).

    New Hunting Rig ?

    I haven't driven it but the Trail Boss is a sharp looking truck. I like that it comes with the 6.2 gasser.

    Hunting season preparations, what did you do today?

    Not today, but I scheduled an MRI for my shoulder yesterday, sounds like the rotator cuff decided to give me a big FU. Archery season over before it starts. Maybe I can stand some rifle recoil by turkey day.

    Cartridge Selection - AR

    I'm quite happy shooting stubble field whitetails with the .223 Tikka and AR. I've used the 55 gr TTSX and 65 gr Gamekings quite effectively, but mght try the 77 gr TMK this year for gits and shiggles.

    What Chainsaw Do You Run?

    Pawn shop saws: Jonsered 630 Super with 20" bar $140 Stihl 036 Pro with 20" bar $250 The 630 looked a little rough but is a great saw. The 036 was a little pricey at $250 but was like new.

    If it doesn't make you mutter "holy shit", its a raghorn.

    Training for elk season

    Forget the mask, give your body time to acclimate and take it slow - you're not playing a football game or running a marathon. Also hydrate hydrate hydrate before arriving, Altitude sickness is real and can ruin you and your hunt.

    New Truck Time - Testing and Sorting

    East Main Auto has a used Cayenne S with a for sale sign. I know Randy has seen it and I think that would be a monster hunting rig. Retire the Honda Pilot, cut the fenders, armor coat it, install oversized tires and just rip the FS roads to shreds.

    New Truck Time - Testing and Sorting

    You can shut that stuff off. Turning traction control off and putting it in tow/haul is the cheat code in my Tundra.

    Massive 488 pound feral hog shot, killed in Texas

    I've killed a lot of pigs, and have seen more dead ones at the hand of others, and I've only seen one 350# free range wild boar hanging on the scale. I've seen a few sows on the hoof that I would suspect being that size, but a boar that size was very unusual and a true monster. Funny thing...
