    Here's kinda my plan

    This is right up my alley. For frame bearings I grease them as heavily as possible. I don't go through the trouble of removing shields, but do my best to pack in grease. If you find a rough one you can oil heavily, spin and wipe off, then grease. Spool bearings on a casting reel I only use...

    Benelli Banger's Crowd Pleaser Pheasant and Wild Rice

    My only problem is now I have a bottle of dry sherry and once open the internet says it only lasts a week or two. I need to find a mini bottle next time.

    Here's kinda my plan

    Pheasant hunting has caused a regression in my life, as in I brush all else aside at an opportunity to hunt. I don't see it this way, but I've got rose colored glasses on when I think about just one more chance to follow behind Skye as her tail wiggles sniffing 'round for a loafin' rooster. What...

    Driving home….

    I'm giving you a pass since you're fishing out of a boat on the winter and that's a lot of fun. If you are talking about waffling between ice fishing and pheasant hunting, then I'd say thumbs down.

    Copper Shot?

    Yeah those copper shells sound a little too rich for my blood. I'll stick with lead and bismuth. When the bismuth runs out it should be a year or two from now. A lot can change in the commodity markets by that time. If I shot a lot of sub-gauge on wpa's I'd either have a large stockpile or roll...

    Made some money off B-banger today

    I put four pheasants in the Dutch oven following his recipe as close as possible. Transferred to crock pot after cooking and brought to gun club. Ended up winning the wild game cookoff $$$. My crock was completely cleaned out. I used the dry sherry and everything. I'll make it again but maybe to...

    new upland vest

    I think what gim is getting at, there's not been a lot of vendors at pheasant fest selling things. I've been to two, and it seems to be getting better. I will check the vendor list before I go. Even if vests etc. aren't for sale, all I want are some examples to try on. If I get any info I'll let...

    new upland vest

    My filson had holes wearing in the shell pockets. I mailed it to filson in the off-season, they sewed it up for free. I think what I'm gonna do is go to pheasant fest this year and try on vests, pants, boots, etc. Hopefully a lot of these companies are there with product to try on to get the...

    1/9/26

    I'm gonna cook your recipe and bring the cockpot to the gun club this weekend. I think maybe you meant 1 cup of wild rice instead of 1 pound? 1 pound uncooked wild rice is a lot after you add the water!
