    What won't you hunt?

    It would be easier for me to list the species I am interested in hunting. A lot of that is that realistically I won't be traveling outside the US to hunt and I'm almost 50 so the chances I could take a lot of different hunting trips is very limited. So I have a list of species I would like to...

    Ben's semi-live 2025 hunt thread

    Well I had two nice days of spring woods hunting, but ultimately no turkeys. Tuesday was super windy and I thought maybe I heard turkeys, but I also thought maybe I was just trying to make distorted goose sounds into turkey sounds. Like I said it was super windy and I couldn't be sure of any...

    Ben's semi-live 2025 hunt thread

    Sunday night here. I just have to make it through work tomorrow and then I will be on my way out to my parents' house to sleep so I can get up before the dawn Tuesday to try to get a turkey. I have to come home Tuesday night for a band concert for my youngest and then I can hunt Wednesday if I...

    Tariffs

    Just a follow up from my earlier post, looks like my company is expecting our cost of goods to go up this year by 23%, higher in some areas and lower in others. But our total spend on the goods we buy will go up 23% this year over last year. That's a big hill to climb.

    Tariffs

    My current employer is floundering do in large part to the fallout from inflationary price increases back in 2023 that were mismanaged. And we are just now beginning to get tariff price increases from our suppliers, so I am sure that is going to help that situation out. I am looking for a new...

    Ben's semi-live 2025 hunt thread

    I had the official first outing of my season 2025-2026 on Saturday. I was a little bummed that I didn't get a chance to close out my prior season with a coyote hunt but February was just too busy. But I have a game camera that needed a new antenna and a new piece of public I wanted to scout for...

    Gobble gobble Spring Turkey 2025

    As for my plans, I have three Illinois tags. I have a tag for the county my parents live in. I a hoping that I can hunt the woods I got my turkey in 2 years ago. It is the 1st season so I plan on taking a couple days off work to hunt that tag since there are no weekend days in that season. I...

    Gobble gobble Spring Turkey 2025

    I spend a lot of time thinking about this question. I probably overthink it to be honest. I always feel like decoys look so fake, but I try them. I tend to put them in vegetation where they can be a little obscured because I think they look so unlifelike. I have tried just a hen, hen and Jake...

    Elon on Joe Rogan

    The company I work for has some great employees and provides some great services/products, but we have had a series of CEOs in the past 7 years who have been less than wonderful and our market cap has decreased by half in that time. Just because a person is nominally "running" a company it...

    Elon on Joe Rogan

    I enjoyed Joe Rogan on Season 1 of News Radio. Anything after that is a hard pass from me. In my opinion there is no redeeming qualities to Elon Musk or the illegal work he is doing at DOGE right now. This work should be done by Congress and with majorities in both chambers, there is no...

    Little things that bother you. OCD or poor design?

    I'll look for that. Lord knows there are features that I don't know even exist. I miss push buttons and tuning knobs.

    Woodworking Hunt Talkers?

    Can't wait to see how this one turns out. I have a new mantle project underway. I am moving at a glacier's pace though.

    Little things that bother you. OCD or poor design?

    My truck doesn't have a key (push to start) and the light inside the car stays on for like 60 seconds after you close the door. It says on while the door is open. And there are a lot of beeps and boops that happen for no reason. All I want is a stealth mode where none of that happens.

    Little things that bother you. OCD or poor design?

    This might be a little off topic, but I am always bothered when I pull up to my hunting spot in the pre-dawn darkness and shut off my truck and I can't open and close doors without beeps and boops and every light turning on. There should be a stealth mode button that I can push that disables all...

    Woodworking Hunt Talkers?

    I did another spoon. I really love the smokebush wood. It has such interesting grain and beautiful color. I started another smaller one and I keeping eyeing the other pieces I have on hand. I might be carving a bunch of these this year.

    Coyote hunting over turkey decoys?

    I have had a lot of coyotes come in to turkey calling. I used to get up set because I felt the coyotes were ruining my turkey hunts, but now I have decided I need to be on the lookout so I can shoot the coyote before it busts me. As of yet, I have never been successful shooting a coyote, but I...

    A Short Story About Landowner Permission Not Being Simple

    I have noticed that often times landowners don't even really realize that they have the right to decide. They don't want to be the bad guy and want everyone to just get along. So whoever is the bad egg can push the issues and make things uncomfortable for everyone else and then the landowners...
