Just got back from a great fishing trip to NW Ontario with three life long buddies. Drove from IN, overnighted in northern WI, then pushed on across the border at International Falls to Red Lake where we overnighted again. Took a short float plane ride early the next morning out to the lodge for...

Here's my plan:
After thawed, poke holes in the thick areas and insert cloves of garlic.
Rub the thing down with olive oil, rosemary, garlic and a few...
For some reason, I happen to like the Ruger 77 black plastic boat paddle, stainless rifles and own several in different calibers.
Just picked up another .243 today.
After looking around on Gunbroker, etc. for comparable I paid $1,000 for it.

I've got 6 & 8 year old grandkids that have really enjoyed shooting the cheapo little bows I've gotten them but it's time to get them some decent equipment.
I want to get them set up with compounds, sights, releases, etc. just like us big kids.
