    Donald Sterling....

    what a circus. i haven't watched an nba game in years, and this will drive me further away. as the fox news reporter was saying, it's ok for an an nba player to beat his wife to a bloody pulp, but mention a racial comment in public....that's the unpardonable sin. it's more of the pot calling the kettle, er, uh, a different color....

    Pull a ford or dodge out of a ditch

    it is a great truck. i hate to sell it. it's perfect for firewood and hunting. just nothing to look at. i've got 3 vehicles in the driveway, something's got to go. my auto insurance guy is smiling ear to ear everytime he see's me coming. i'm going to sell this and my wife's minivan and hopefully put those monies towards a family/hunt vehicle, like a tahoe or a 4runner. so i can go grocery shopping and hunt out of the same vehicle. also wanting a small trailer to put my quad and dead deer or elk in, so i don't have to try to stuff it in the back of the new suv with the kids.

    Broad heads for elk, 2014

    I'll probably give the Ulmer Edge a try as well. Being a newer Mechanical/broadhead it's hard to find a ton of solid information to back them up. The things I like about this broadhead -Field point accuracy to 100 yds -Apply set screw to broadhead and use for practice -Can hit at an angle without deflection because blade swivels. -2 Blades swivel around bones (ribs) to help penetration -1 1/2" cutting diameter, seems perfect -2 blades lock on contact (turns into broadhead on contact). Blades won't unlock (close) after contact -Blades are sharp on backside, to continue cutting if arrow were to fall out -Solid broadhead tip for bone What I wish this broadhead had -3 or 4 blades -Unsure about blades swivel and not swiveling back out because of meat, fur, bone causing blade not to swivel back out. This could possibly turn this broahead into a one blade after contact with bone. Overall it seems like a great broadhead besides a couple concerns. Can anyone who has used the Ulmer Edge give additional information. i just killed a deer in january with one. it was a 24 yard shot, and the broadhead was sunken 4 inches into a rotten ponderosa pine tree after the clean pass thru. The broadhead still appears to be usable. i found true field point accuracy. i made absolutely no tuning adjustments, and shot money. The blades deployed flawlessly, and lock open. They cannot get stuck inside the ferrule, because the hinge action forces the blade to swing back out after contact with bone. the kid who works for me just killed a bull last september with the ulmer edge at 74 yards. He shot a double lung and the broadhead was lodged in a rib on the opposite side. bull went down fast. hope that helps.

    think i'm going with ulmer edges. just screw 'em on and hunt, no foolin' around with tuning. also, safety is the biggest issue. blades are completely encosed, so, to me, it seems safer. less chance of lacerating myself 10 miles from cell signal.

    undercover canned hunt documentary??

    i did not see the show, but would like to, just for kicks. the only problem i have with canned hunts is the greed it brings out in the sport. people are willing to pay to place themselves higher in the record books. and lie about it. but other than that, there's no wrong way to kill and grill an animal. stick it in a fence if that's your thing, i think i'll get mine the old fashioned way.

    ALL PURPOSE AXE ???

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJlQH93Vx9c wranglerstar has a lot of good videos on axes. i wouldn't get a fiskars, and i break my fiberglass handle on my splitting ax every year. one of these days i'm gonna spring for a real ax. there's a couple of good companies out there that make a decent ax. I've heard good things about stihl axes. they may be next on my list.

    you're getting close. let us know how it turns out. there's lots of ways to beat this if you know the law, and courtroom procedure.

    I thought those cameras in Star Valley were inoperative. Not the case? ain't a day goes by i don't see them suckers go off. keep flyin' through there, and help keep my taxes low.

    it's been done a few times in star valley. last i read where someone won, they argued that the city prosecutor could not also be a witness against you, as this was a conflict of interest. court ruled that was true, and threw it out. i'm not sure what or if the city has changed on that, but now the prosecutor cannot be a witness against you.
