Re: Drumming

During an insomnia bout early this morning, I was listening to the BBC this a.m. and they had on a woman who specialized in recording and studying elephant vocalizations in the low frequency range which is impossible for humans to hear. Apparently some folks can feel it in their chests. It's even lo...

Re: Meet Molly

Pete, great to have a new dog around. Get ready for the Big Chew. My 3 1/2 year old Brittany, Abby, will be joined by a half sister from a recent litter. Abby and Willa have the same pop. Willa is 7 weeks old but the breeder wants to keep the pups together for 12 weeks. Abby has barely grown out of ...

Re: Ocellated turkeys

A buddy went to Central America with an outfitter. He got his bird and Montezuma's Revenge aka Turkey Trots at the same time. Don't drink the water, eat fruit or raw vegetables. You have been warned. None of the above is on my bucket list, Kemo Sabe. Speaking of bucket, he didn't make it to the buck...

Re: Project .410 Stage One Complete.

Red, I thought your little bolt action .410 threw a heckuva pattern. If you need to raise the comb to view the dot with your cheek resting on the stock, you can do it with pipe insulation split on it's axis and taped to the top of the comb. Or you can spend 20 bucks and get the neoprene job. Gil

Re: 20 ga recoil

Here's a recoil calculator: http://www.omahamarian.org/trap/shotshellenergy.html Comparing an 8 lb. gun versus a 6.5 lb. gun shooting 1.625 oz. yields 20 foot-pounds of recoil versus 24.7 foot-pounds of recoil. I'd rather carry the lighter gun with slightly more recoil. With a bird out front, I doub...

Lot of folks pulled for CC, including me, but several triple crown winners won against big fields of fresh horses. That's why the TC is rare and there are only 11 winners The owner of CC needs to get over it. He lost.

Chanterelle season begins

We had a lot of rain this week and temps are rising so I was wondering if the chants would be popping out. Went to an easy to check spot this afternoon and was glad to see they are out. They'll be around through September. Gil http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m278/photo205/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-06...

WW, I first heard "sac-a-lait" many years ago on a 3-day pass from Fort Polk. I went sac-a-lait fishing on Toledo Bend and night-fished the still standing tree tops of the reservoir and caught the crappie out of them. ;) Gil

Give the man credit. To kill turkeys with a noisy band playing loud music in the tent and moving around like Miss Nelson's kindergarten class, that's quite an accomplishment.

Re: Yellow Flies

The deer flies soften you up for the horse flies. At least the horse flies are bigger targets to swat and not nearly as plentiful as deer flies.
