Always always bring a first aid/survival kit.

I was going to suggest bring the Benelli along. You never know.

Or snowshoes.

Instead of manning up, sent the wife. Pathetic.

Shame you had to go to that extent. Nobody wants to be an a-hole, but some people will just push you to that point, then badmouth you.

Exactly. We had a tidy sum set aside for renovations/updates when we purchased our current home. Very shortly after this property came up for sale very near by, and my wife was actually the one who wanted to purchase the land (cash outright) versus home projects. PLUS, paying out $1100-1200 in...

You're doing all you can do. There's no shame in that.

Great buck. Nice job.

Everybody wants land to hunt, nobody wants to pay the purchase price, school and property taxes. Politely but firmly inform them that any trespassers will have the law called on them. Post your property legally. That means all inside and outside corners to define boundaries, and on straight...

Hang in there man. The 2nd rut should be around the 4th. Spending as much time in the woods as possible maximizes your odds.

Understood.

7mm-08 is not hard to get along with. Plenty of punch and reasonable recoil for the power. I use Hornady American Whitetail with the 139 gr. SP in my Ruger American. I shot a mature doe facing me once, center chest. Bullet exited just in front of right rear hip. For all I know it's still going.

My fave cartridge.

IF anyone is interested, today is the last day of Trulock's Black Friday Sale. 25% off, $50+ order= free choke tube case, $100+ order= free shipping I couldn't resist the Buy 3 get 4th free, and ordered 4 Precision Hunter tubes for my Benelli Monte 20 gauge.

Sat from 6am-10am today. Fresh snowfall yesterday, this morning was 23 degrees and cemetery still. Saw nothing, not even a bird.

Please do.

Amen brother

Well played sir. Well played.

Truth

That's funny, since the Establishment came up with the term 'Sex Offender'.

Yep, the first thing the wife and I do, before our Thanksgiving meal, is give thanks for all the hatred and violence in the USA. You got us pegged.

Man, you are old. Remember Goldie Hawn all painted up, dancing in a bikini?

Up to you man... I've fixed more than one firearm I've purchased, that wasn't right from the factory, cuz I hate the hassle....it's MY firearm, and I will give it personal and individual attention...I am VERY detail-oriented and...I will fix it right, the first time, with upgraded parts, for...

For whatever this is worth to you D.... I'd 'fix' it myself, with upgraded parts. You have the knowledge, experience and the parts sitting there. Personally I hate sending things back, unless I absolutely have to.

That is curious

Found this link: https://www.beretta.com/en-us/beretta-choke-tubes-identification-suggestions-/ Scroll to bottom Although the data presented by Beretta is applicable to their choke tube systems, one could reasonably conclude that they have use the same system of "stars" to mark the barrel with...

Well, funny thing about shotguns is when it comes to most "standards" there aren't many. You've done quite a bit already. If it was mine I'd search online for a digital copy of the owners manual, and nose around on some forums. You're prob on the right track with 3 stars = Mod and 2 stars =...

A point or two for your consideration... Many Italian (and Continental) shotguns are metric therefore have bore sizes that differ from American, for example 12 gauge US standard about .730", Italian .725" My Benelli 20 gauge has a bore diameter of .625. I'd suggest purchasing an inside...

My wife and I were in the shooting house from 6a-10a. In that entire time we heard a total of 6 shots, all distant and spaced 20-30 minutes apart. Never heard a quieter opening weekend in my life. Saw 3 or 4 gray squirrels, 2 very close so I know that we were doing a very good job sitting quiet...

The view from my office today Only saw 2 gray squirrels today. It was the quietest opening day I can remember. Only heard maybe a dozen shots all day.

1 in 3 people polled approved of him? Pretty freaking scary.

Truth The bucks have very large racks Boatloads of black bear Elk hunting by lottery

Absolutely. KY is pricey in the hunting license dept., but a saving grace for me is I qualify for a senior sportsman at age 65.

For the Xbow, NYS differentiates between a bow and a Xbow because an Xbow has a trigger (and not to mention a rifle stock). $15 muzzleloader 'privilege' gets you a Bow/Muzzleloader either sex tag. With an Xbow in the Southern Zone that allows you to hunt the last 2 weeks of Early Bow season and...

Don't need one for xbow, just a muzzleloader stamp.

As for me I saw nothing today but gray squirrels and the flick of an ear just above the stone wall. Cold this morning 30 degrees. I sat as still as a stone til 10am, home til 2p then back out til sunset . I've seen the same 3 bucks on the trail cams, 1-8 point rack nothing to write home about...

Show'em what you're made of kid

Best wishes to everyone tomorrow for a safe and successful 2021 Xbow season.

I can't wait to see her unseated as Speaker of the House.

Yeh so. The property owner that borders ours came right over onto our property while we were out there cutting wood, and introduced himself as was proper and cordial. Mutual and exclusive permission to track a wounded deer onto each other's property. We have opened and improved trails together...

Amen to that. I voted NO to so many bond issues in the 80s....

Well, cheating's cheating.

Ima shake the Magic 8 Ball, and it says...take a hard look at the hand SCOTUS dealt to the state of Illinois.

I bet they wish she was wearing a mask

If I see this to fruition in my lifetime, I will truly Rest In Peace. Please Lord, let me live to at least June or July, to hear this sweet music with my own ears, to feast upon it, with my own eyes. Edit: Alito, suggesting the Sullivan Law was rooted in racism against Irish and Italian...

Thank you for posting that.

So long sucker. Don't let the door hit ya in the ass on the way out!

My wife called VA @ about 11a when she got home from work yesterday. Her words were "Don't piss off the mama bears", re: the Trans kid raping 2 diff girls in 2 diff schools. Also paraphrasing McNumbnuts re: parents have no biz telling schools what to teach. Exactly who's in charge here? .gov...
