At the risk of sounding like a little girl......OMG

I'll bet that in the back of most of our minds, there is that fear.... Investments gone...10.00 gas....bread lines... I've always said If wild bird #s come back to good levels, something bad will have to happen to agriculture.... GULP!!

Another I really like the looks of is the Franchi Instinct. Love that prince of Wales grip...

I can save 200.00 plus and just drive up and Hunt ruffs with you!! But then I would probably just go ahead and go out west anyway. So I'll probably do the smart thing and spend 15 k on a vehicle that gets good gas mpg., then drive twice the distance!! Sounds smart to me!!

You can eventually kill the trees by bush hogging twice a year. The trouble with that where I'm from is your habitat will quickly turn into solid fescue. Wich is terrible habitat for almost everything.

I have a bean I use for squirrel hunting, but I struggle to figure out direction with it. I can hear pieces of nuts hitting the ground ok but can't hear a squirrel rustling in the dry leaves right in front of me. I miss the insects at night and the songbirds in daytime. My low frequency is...

Good job on the pic. That one could be framed.

I used to schedule a week around a snow and cold weather when I could, I still love those conditions but now days Cloudy and low 40's feel pretty good to these old bones!!

I have the topwater pdl. They are very easy to pedal. I have more trouble getting it back in the truck than fishing out of it.

I'm looking for some everyday hearing aids that have the function of shutting down the gunshots. so I don't have to switch back and forth. Any suggestions?
