    "Good to a thousand" mentality??

    my only experience with the "over a thousand club" the gun was sighted in for 1000 yrds -- great sendero 300 win mag top of the line optics/scope. the gun was accurate! human error was the problem - even when gun was Clawed - the sightest bump-grip-flinch-wind still effects the point of impact -squeeze the tripper wrong - yes even trigger pull can change everything guide put a guy behind the set-up took 6 shots for him to "join the club" even though it was acctually 965- lol it was still a marginal hit but he had his 90 in buck down latter hunter admitted - crosshairs where all over the place excitement- buck fever whatever - same guy probably would of made a marginal hit at 100 great to have the confidence and have an accurate rifle to do the long range shooting / hunting but not everyone is capable sounds easy to turn the dial hold and shoot - still lots of variables even for the most experienced of shooters big difference between those who can and those who think they can !

    Alamo fish reports

    In the fall - Nov. -- Dec. fishing can be tough -- we normally just slow troll shorelines with small cranks - pick up bass and when we hit the crappies - stop and try to find the school or at least turn around and go thru same area agin . lots of places to tube fish on Alamo - we normally fish the West banks. coves / shorelines as this tends be the river channel side on the upper end -- with mostly shallower water along east side best times are March - Apri for all spieces and hope to hit the shad run!

    freezer type

    I like buying them at estate sales Fridgedaire upright- 15 cu ft 2015 - $40 Amana upright 14 cuft 09 - $50 but then I didn't have an elk at the butcher waiting to come home either so I can watch for these to show got to swap out my ancient 20 yr old -- 20 cf er tomorrow before it has any problems - runs great - no complaints other than had to thaw it once every 3 yrs - door handle gone etc. never liked digging in the bottoms of a chest plus the bigger ones took up way to much room if you have it plugged to a gfi outlet - make sure you invest in an alarm for your freezer - if power goes out - they will not reset by themselves - seen many a load of good game meat tossed cuz of a power failure and guy didn't even know anything till bloody stinky mess !! if your just storing hides and heads - sometimes a chest will work better for that and should keep longer during power outage
  23. where do you come up with this!?? I've carried both bow and rifle many a times - there is nothing illegal about it. now had you added - during a bowhunting season - maybe but here agin there are many hunts going on - if you are in the field during a bow hunt with a bow only tag - then perhaps this warden could interpet some violation but it's noncence to say you can't carry a rifle and a bow while hunting please find out which warden stated this information now if the question as about the new law where they specifically stated that during the bow hunts down south where you are carring a pistol for personnel protection during an archery season then here if the question was asked about carring a rifle instead of a pistol - then the way its stated - no rifle
