    What to do with 5BP's

    For whatever reason I can't seem to get drawn for a deer tag anymore, and have racked up 5BP's. . If you had 5BP's what would you do, and what kind of hunt should I realistically hold out for? I think trying to get drawn for 13's is probably a stretch, but what about other area's. What is something that is a prime hunt I might have a decent shot at with 5 BP's? I am now to the point I am going to hold out for a good hunt, and not waste my BP's on a normal hunt. I like coues hunting, but I think I am really more interested in a hunt with a good shot to bag a big muley if possible. Harley

    What to do with 5BP's

    I have been honestly thinking about trying to chase a desert buck too. I have seen a couple decent bucks near my dove hunting hole, and I know a lot of nice bucks are out there.

    What to do with 5BP's

    Where do I find the info on the draw this year to see how many BP's it took to get bonus pass this year in certain areas?
  4. I am probably about to move into a new house and will be setting up my reloading station again. This time I want to do it right and make it nice. Last time it was just thrown together and hasn't been all that useful or great to work at. I will probably have about 4-5 feet of my 12' long workbench dedicated to reloading along with the wall behind it. Thoughts on shelving and layout would be appreciated. Pics would be awesome. Thanks Harley
  5. Hi Guys, I figured I might drop this here to see if anyone has done this and had recommendations. I am about to move into a new house, and I want to outfit the garage with compressor air lines to various locations to have air ports available all over instead of dragging hoses all over the garage. It will be just a standard 2 car garage, so not a ton of sqft, but I want to get this installed before I move into the garage. Has anyone done this, does anyone have any good recommendations for kits or ideas on what a good product would be? I don't want to use PVC, and I don't really want to use copper unless I can't find something more user friendly and easier to install. I don't want to have to sweat all those dang fittings. Thanks Harley

    Extreme Couponing

    I avoid Walmart at all costs for anything. I don't care if I have to pay more somewhere else.

    Family sues Law Enforcement

    Dumb. The guy committed the crime, ran from the cops, and died. Sucks to be him, but he made all the wrong choices. Lawsuits like this are one of the downfalls of this country.

    20A Help

    The south and west portion of the unit is probably your best bet this year. Most of the eastern side northern side burned a few weeks ago. I have hunted 20a alot and most of my known hunting areas are torched now. Good luck on your hunt. Maybe check near Desoto mine area.

    Ditching TV?

    I have been kicking around the idea of ditching satellite TV. I am moving soon I think and would just make the switch then. I have DirectTV right now, and it is fine, but I hate the bill. I already have netflix, but my main concerns are football and kids shows. I have a 2 year old and a 5 year old so having decent programming for them is nice. The only shows I care to watch are Shameless and Walking Dead. Thoughts? Is having a firestick or roku enough?

    Looking for a Mr.Heater...Buddy heater

    Just a word from learning from past experience. When I used the BBQ bottle conversion hose last year during javalina season we had an issue. Every time I would start the heater, the pilot would come on, and every time I would turn it to high heat it would die. Repeatedly. I knew the bottle was full of fuel, but it wouldn't light. It had air in the line, and wouldn't light. I left it run on pilot for about 5 minutes, and then kicked it to full heat and it finally cleared all the air from the lines and ran fan. That was nice because it was going to be a chilly night without the heater.

    Unit 9 late rifle elk help

    I don't know if 9 is like 7E, but in 7E which borders 9, the bulls are more often found in the middle to lower elevations that time of year. I have had the late cow hunt in 7e the past 2 years, and weather is a big deal. Pray for a cold winter, and a good monsoon IMO.

    Long range scopes

    20 moa rail for sure. I made that mistake on my long range rig. I only have enough MOA adjustment to get out to about 950 yards. I don't have a ton of experience, but I chose the Vortex Viper HSLR 6x24x50 FFP.

    Ditching TV?

    I have no choice about internet, the wife sells Lularoe clothing online so we have to have that, and I work from home on occasion. TV maybe not.

    Interesting speech

    That was very good. I listened to it this morning. It is nice to see someone who isn't a "gun loving American" saying things like this.
  21. Empire Cat has other divisions that might need people too. Power Systems, Rentals, etc. I have a couple buddies in the power systems area. 1 is an engineer, but the other is a mobile repair tech now. He started in the shop fixing equipment.

    Looking for a Mr.Heater...Buddy heater

    When we were elk hunting last year, we spent 1 of the last nights in a tent. It was 15-20*F probably in a 10x14 Kodiak Flexbow. We had 2 little buddy heaters running in there. 1 hooked to the big bottle on high, 1 on low hooked to green cylinders. No CO issue. The my CO alarm never went off.

    Looking for a Mr.Heater...Buddy heater

    I bought a CO detector that I keep in the tent because I am paranoid. I don't really think in a tent it is an issue, but learning the hard way would suck... I have been in a cab over with a little buddy running all night with no issues. The only time we had a CO issue was when the RV 4 feet away from us was running his generator and that was leaking in. The exhaust was literally right next to us though.
