    Over / Under Shot Guns - school me on proper choke set-up

    No copper or nickel plated shot is still considered lead shot. I shoot the bottom barrel first. Bottom barrel is choked modified, the top full. I also like coarse shot for pheasants, so I shoot 5 shot, maybe 6 shot if huns seem likely. This is in a 12 gauge Beretta 686

    Is 'Useful electric snow blower" an oxymoron?

    We just don't get enough snow, most of the time, to justify a snow pusher. I agree it would be the more efficient tool for the job.

    Football General Talk

    That reminds me of a story I heard from Carson Palmer, I think. He was with the Cardinals and during a scrimmage, he declined to pass to a certain receiver. Bruce Arians asked him why he did not throw the ball to that receiver. Palmer said he did not think the receiver was open. Arians...

    So, McCarthy is a "great" qb coach. I guess based on Arron Rogers' assent to stardom. They were known for always being on the same page during their time together in Green Bay...oh, I guess not. So, if he is great qb coach, explain why Dak is bad, and Trey Lance is so bad, he can't get on the...

    I guess I'm left to answer my own question, This years Cowboys team is quite similar to most Jets teams. Maybe they should do a jersey swap.

    Just asking, how great a coach does it take to have a 1 and 6 record at home?

    I really love how you tried to slip in McCarthy as being a great coach.

    Do you think AI is developed well enough to have Trump and Putin look powerful, bare chested? Biden, I could handle him...just draw a stick man.

    Tariffs and Potential Inflation

    This has troubled me for... decades. I was fortunate to get hired at one of the refineries in the Billings area. Those sort of jobs are in very limited number in today's world. We cheerfully pissed away blue collar manufacturing jobs, beginning about the time I reached adulthood. It is really...

    Really, he came in leading with an elbow at about the height of a man's knee, if he was upright. That is an unusual tackling technique. I think he did exactly what he intended to do. At best, he was hoping to hit him a split second sooner. Football is a very violent game. The players accept...

    Yellowstone Park in June, any suggestions on where to stay?

    We took our son and daughter to YNP when they were young. I think it is the favorite family vacation we ever took. When our daughter was in college at Missoula, I met her near Great Falls and we went to Glacier to hike each summer. One year, we did Yellowstone. She surprised me with a retirement...

    Yellowstone Park in June, any suggestions on where to stay?

    This is excellent advice on every point. There is a reason it is so crowded. There literally is no other place in the world like it. It is not every day that government gets things right, but saving this park, has been a gift to humanity, for generations.

    Mobile tagging/reporting

    Every statistics class teaches that you do not need every last data point to get a good picture of what is going on. Businesses use that routinely for quality control and other process issues. Therefore, I do not have a problem, per se, with the phone call method that Montana has long used...

    Joe Kapp, whose passes often had a bit of wobble to them, leading to underthrown passes to a wide open Gene Washington. He could be a poor mans Josh Allen, he was not afraid of contact. His helmet had a single bar for the face mask. The Vikings from that era remain my favorite teams, although...

    As I said, I have long memories of the Vikings saga. Norm Van Brocklin was the coaching the Vikings when I first began to cheer for them. He wasn't the greatest coach in the world but he was fairly witty. He once said, iirc, we're not very big, but we are slow. He said Dave Osborn was tougher...

    If there was a Vikings fan seniority list, I would be towards the top of the list. Their first few years were pretty rough. I was a fan when Bill Brown was the full back. I really became a fan when Dave Osborn, a North Dakotan, became their half back. It has been unrequited affection ever since...

    Direct tv is our provider and they and the Fox station reached an impasse a couple of years ago. So, I will miss the Cowboys Giants game. This is one of the few silver linings that comes to mind.

    elk hunting record

    I have never kept a record of how many consecutive days of not seeing any elk, but there have been years, when seeing anything was difficult. This past summer, while getting up very early to run bird dogs from horseback, I saw a very nice bull, twice, at the edge of an irrigated corn field...

    I'll plead guilty, it was just teed up so perfectly. Good luck if you elk hunt this weekend.
