    Milwaukee heated jacket

    I bought one for my wife. She is a school teacher and is the envy of all the other teachers during playground duty. I'm 6'5" or I'd get it from you. Would be great in a tree stand

    Bows down. Hail to the leader! March is good stuff.

    Game Processor / Cooler near Patagonia or Sonoita???

    I bone them out and have gallon and 2.5 gallon bags. I try to keep all the muscle groups together. The hind quarter hams are too big to put in a gallon bag and still close it. I use 2 of those and probably 4 or 5 gallon per coues.

    "Good to a thousand" mentality??

    I can shoot 1000 yards, easily. On the side of a box of 22lr, it says they can shoot 1.5 miles. I cant hit shxt, but I can shoot 1000+ all day long.

    the best part of the story is one of the guys working with us was a vet that was the commander of the Armys sniper school at Ft Benning. Jason just smiled and nodded.

    "Good to a thousand" mentality??

    I work part-time at a gunshop over by Intel. We have had several engineers tell us that they wanted to buy a 338 Lupua and a high-end Vortex (400max) and were going to shoot long distance. One guy told us he had never shot anything but a handgun but since he was an engineer and he knew the math involved, he would be good out to 1500yards. His shooting mentor was a Youtube guy that "offers training much better then what our Military Snipers and LEO get." We tried to talk him off of his perch but he probably just bought his setup from someone else. What I learned from these guys is "Shooting long distance is just math, anyone can do it."

    Be sure to read the fine print of the Guide Contract. Full service could be way more then bargained for.

    Brittany's first bull

    Great video. Looks like it was an awesome hunt. Congrats Brittany! only thing that worried me was all the kissing. Most guides don't require that, right?

    I got the tripod head about 30 minutes ago. I only have one complaint. This deal went to quickly, I didn't have time to get home and hide it from the wife! Thanks again. It looks better then you described it.
  15. a good friend of mine shot a nice mule deer in Nevada during a muzzleloader hunt. The deer was running straight away from him, he just pulled up and shot. The buck went down. He runs over to it and sees it is missing one of its antlers and sees it on the ground with the ball smashed into it. He went to pick up the deer's head and it opened its eyes and started to stand up. He had knocked it out. Since it was a muzzleloader hunt, and he ran over to it, he never loaded a second shot. He then tries to wrestle it to the ground and kill it with his knife. His brothers are all laughing and watching. He finally stuck it and was able to kill it. His kids told him he had killed a duck, half doe half buck, just like on the Disney movie Open Season. That deer is now known as Elliot.
