And you thought shooting TSS rounds were $$$.....

Your "can't live without" could've been worse. Just thank goodness it wasn't an M-1 Abrams. I have a buddy who once collected crew served German weapons from WWII. YOLO, then you D.

In the UK "moderators" are usually used by game "stalkers". They are contentious and some landowners won't allow the use. I've got a 30" or so barrel extension that screws into choke threads on 12 gauge shotguns mfg'd by Mossberg ( brand adored and covertly coveted by VAturk...

Alabama Chufa employees working hard to impart burning leaves scent on first order of camo clothing.

If that don't put tears in your eyes....

You just spawned another idea. Edible camo clothing. Especially for the boys that will "process" the clothing with the burning leaves smell. This has come a long way since the discussion began. I just hope someone name Jordan isn't tuning in.

Ya know, a real marketing tool for the camo pattern would be if the Alabama Chufa pattern's cloth could be impregnated with the smell of burning leaves. I don't believe any of the other turkey camo clothing mfgs. have hit on that idea. Not for deer because they would stampede the other way trying to...

Buds. Lots of buds.

Hunter movement and loud hollering could cause a problem, possibly spooking birds in the enitre tri-county area, especially with live fire ants.

This should be the official camo pattern. I see a lot of this stuff in the woods. I'd be itching to get a camo pattern with these leaves replicated. You'd be able to blend into a huge patch of this stuff. Put a few of the real leaves under your hat band to really get the full effect. http://www.pois...

Had to look up Idiopathic, just didnt figure Gil to be that down on himself.

Idiotic is also appropriate.

Tommy, is a Technician ham radio license required to fly those planes? gil

Chanterelles,that is. We drove to Clarke County to move daughter to another apartment. Before heading home, she took me to her mushroom grounds. Before dark in about 10-15 minutes, we harvested a pound or two. Penny for scale.

I did. She loves wild birds.

That's much better than the other way around.

My daughter tortured me last night with the texted photo of a meal she cooked 250 miles from me. Snipe, dove and quail with sauteed chanterelles she picked, arugula with pear and shallot vinaigrette salad, and roasted potatoes. She raided my freezer during a visit earlier this month for the birds. h...

Hope it goes well. Sounds like you are in good hands. Once the numbness is in your foot, it's time for the knife. How'd you rupture it or do you know? Gil

My problem wasn't severe as yours. I had radiculopathy into my hip, but not lower leg and numb foot. I also used a goofy-ass chair similar to the one in the Walmart link below. The chair works. Sitting is one of the worse things you can do to your back. The photo is of my stand-up desk which I still...

I ruptured L5/S1 28 years ago. Doctor wanted to cut. I slept with a pillow under my knee on the side of the pain, used a stand up desk at work and avoided sitting as much as possible. When sitting, I had a back support. Did a regime of exercise that strengtened my stomach muscles and walked a lot. I...

Only Zimmerman knows what happened that night. If he was faced with the decision to shoot or be killed, that is one thing, and was entitled to self defense. However, he could've avoided the situation by listening to the 911 operator who told him to stop following and leave it to the police. I don't ...

You are preaching to the choir. That's me, up here in the loft, wearing the camo choir robe and a head net. The single biggest expense in my turkey hunting is gas. The closest hunt i have burns 5 gallons--$17 +/-. The furthest is 150 miles round trip--$35. Last season on my Ga. limit I shot 3.25 oz....

Fishing is good. There are pompano in the surf.

Gil is right. I loved my Ithaca. The only reason I sold it was cause it can slam fire. I'm down to 5 Ithacas. Two 16s, two 20s and 28 gauge. It has been more than 25 years since the last Ithaca made could slam fire. Without a doubt, my "go to" field guns for dove and snipe. My 20 gauge we...

Well, since you liked the BPS, you'd love the Ithaca M37 which is the oldest designed pump still in production. It ain't cheap, however. The price is about what a Wingmaster 870 costs (not express). Suggested MRP is usually beat by a local gunshop which Ithaca will sell to at a discount. The quailit...
