Great midbore powder. -

Well you trolled him and he jumped your case. He should have just made a complete post the first time with all the details.

Lot's of people just don't take care of their stuff and toss it in the truck bed or worse in the back of the ATV and don't tether it sometimes driving ten miles or more back to camp, and 90% of people don't put a tag on their stuff or put a business card inside of it to identify who the owner is. Laziness? Just a lack of commonsense? I don't know but I own a Ford Powerstroke and am amazed at the amount of people who spend tens of thousands of dollars on their trucks and think nothing of dropping $1000 on a stereo system or $3K on tires and rims but won't anty up for a decent alarm/theft protections system and then post "Help this truck was stolen from our house, place of work, etc" Let's get these SOB's like it everyone elses problem too.

Back Stage and Pre Concert "Events" were not too hard to get "invited " to or too crash if you brought the "goodies". Definately a different time. On another note I s[ent a lot of time at the Drags and for $2 more you could a Pit Pass and hang out with Big Daddy Don Garlits and all all the other pioneers in the 60's. I was there when Shirley Muldowney got her license as it was shown in the movie Heart Like a Wheel. Good times and memories fo sho.

Are the grips plastic ?

How many Lumens/Foot Candles and watts?

It's probably the most difficult game to cook. 95% of people who shoot them have extremely limited to zero culinary skills or a repertoire and don't care to try to experiment with them. We used to just shoot them and toss them in the bushes because we had lots of coyotes and didn't like the liver taste.

Thanks for the report goma I know that the Rut is slow from what I've heard. We had a real spotty rut like this about 7 or 8 years ago and Bulls were not very active and then the rut just vaporized and was over. I hope it doesn't turn out to be one of those years again. I've tried to retire twice, just turned 67 so I'm on the three year plan. LOL

I have a 6A tag and was wondering how the acorn crop is looking this year. I know it's been dry but hoping that the wet spring we had was enough to produce some acorns.

My tastes went to Country Rock by the time Metal became popular. Growing up on Long Island there were multiple concerts every weekend to go to plus tons of local groups that made it big like Eddie Money, Billy Joel, Twisted Sister playing in the local clubs. Joe Walsh and the James Gang played my Senior Prom in 1970. Loudest concert I saw was Deep Purple. My ears rang for 30 minutes after I left the Coliseum. Typical ticket prices in the late 60's and early 70's were $6.50 to $8.50 and T-Shirts were $9.50 I've seen the Stones, Pink Floyd, Grand Funk, Doors, Joplin, Grateful Dead, Zappa, YES, ELO, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Beach Boys, Chuck Berry, Bo Didly, Les Paul, The Who, Skinard, Charlie Daniels both with his band and also playing with Marshall Tucker, Allman Brothers, Ten Years After, Rory Gallegher, Wet Willie, New Riders, Sha Na Na, Buddy Guy, Jethro Tull, Buckingham Nicks, Fleetwood Mack, Both Winters Brothers, Sly and the Family Stone, Shaka Kahn, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, The Four Seasons, Bonnie Rait, Pat Benetar, Queen, Willie Nelson, KISS, Santana.Paul McCartney and Wings and lots of one hit wonders who were openers. I'm sure there are a few I missed. Never got to see the Beatles or Hendrix but Jimi would play at a place in the Village called The ELectric CIrcus and the cover was $2 but I was only 15 or so at the time. Didn't make Woodstock as I had a dad who was struggling to make ends meet with five kids and I had a job flipping burgers during the week and worked from 11PM to about 8AM Friday and Saturday nights for a guy who had a cleaning business which was a few office buildings and resturants and a few bars.

Soaked in local whole milkfor 24 hours, drained, pounded and seasoned. Then into an egg wash, into flour. Then dredged again and into cornmeal. Twice. Cooked in oil for about 3 minutes turning every 30 seconds. Nice and tender.

Guess he's a little butthurt now.

When chicken breast is on sale I buy a bunch. I found that wrapping each breast in plastic wrap then putting them in a gallon freezer bag works well to keep them from getting freezer burn.

If someone has an inkling to expand their skills here are a few things to try. 1. Shoot small bore silhouette. It's offhand and .22 out to 100 meters. 2. Shoot high power silhouette. Centerfire rifle calibers (no magnums) out to 500 meters. 3. Take your deer rifle and jump shoot jackrabbits. 4. Learn how to predator call for coyotes. Don't use a bipod to shoot from. Nothing like shooting a moving target offhand. Learn the habits and reactions of coyotes when they are coming into a call and what they do when they bust you. No reason to limit yourselves to what makes you comfortable with a rifle.

Pretty Bull, congrats all around.

It's worth being picky and holding out. Good Luck Sean.

Tred just passed away in an auto accident in Canada. Not a lot of details but I know for the last month or so he had an RV and had traveled to Alaska. Heck of a fisherman, hunter and all around good guy who managed to never give up no matter what cards he was delt. He is outta pain now and if there is a here after I know he is sitting around the campfire with people like Bear, Ruark, Learner and a slew of others.

"We all have to know our limitations". Some people don't know what they don't know and it seems like you ran across shooters than hunters. Each person comes up different. If there was a school for people who didn't grow up hunting that would be great. In the old days I would write a mail order course on this very subject, with steps. It's interesting to read the comments and see how others have achieved their current level. Coach, websites like this, Long Range Hunting and the fad of 1,200 yard MOA groups take a novice from 0 to 200MPH in the blink of an eye which is good but sometimes leads to limited skills and that is on the person behind the trigger.

It just takes one bull to start feeling his oats and the others respond accordingly.

They revamped the Fishing Report about two years ago to what it is now, which is basically people calling in and giving a report when they catch something.

Didn't realize Regs were out but thanks. -
I used the Trophy Bonded in my 22-250 and they worked great at 30 yards and 225 yards on a doe hunt with my two kids around 2000.
