Ted gets over the top and may not be politically correct but he sure as heck stands up for the 2nd Amendment ! He says what he feels and makes a lot of people cringe . I don't particularly care for him as a person but he makes the stand for Gun Rights clear enough !

I figured it might be fun to join the rest of you guys that do this, so I started this thread to log my outdoor activities. I'll post about all of it, from hunting to camping, fishing, shed hunting, etc. Whatever I do outdoors. I think it will be interesting to go back through and look at how much time I spend outdoors.

As far as the Draft Dodger label goes, many young men opposed the Vietnam war, with good reason. Many were war resisters, more than they were draft dodgers. If you want to hold all who avoided the Vietnam War up as cowards, you need to include Geo W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Newt Gingrich, Dick Cheney, Mitt Romney, Pete Seeger, Muhammed Ali, etc. During the years when the draft was in effect, you could legally avoid being drafted by volunteering for any branch of the military, including those that (back then) had little chance of ever seeing combat. That included the reserve component of all branches, plus the National Guard and Air National Guard units of every state, plus the Coast Guard. Thousands went to Canada and were eventually pardoned, because it turned out the entire war was immoral and unjustified and no one would argue any longer with any man's desire to resist fighting in Vietnam. My uncle was a Lt Col jet fighter pilot in Nam in the USMC when I turned 16 during the Vietnam war, and once told me if I got drafted to go to Canada. When I asked how he could say such a thing, his reply was, "I don't think there should be a single boot on the ground over there. The only way to fight that war is the way we do it. Drop out of the sky from 50,000 feet, unload all of the ordnance and hit the afterburners the heck outta there!" He had three tours in Nam at that point and he was dead serious. "Any man who wants to go to Nam to fight is a Goddam fool!" he said. He was a brilliant USMC officer, with a geat deal of war experience from WWII, Korea and Nam. Today, I believe more than ever before, that he spoke great wisdom then.

The interview has been edited. At the 19 second mark and the 23 second mark, the continuity is broken. What was said by CBS at these two points that was edited out? Sounds like they are playing a tape that has been doctored to make Ted look like he is exploding for no reason. I trust CBS about as far as I can throw a baby grand. Nobody has a right to pass judgement on Ted. That's for God to decide in the end. Judge not, and you will not be judged.

I think NYAntler, WNYBuckhunter and First-Light got it right... While I love his passion about the 2nd ammendment and our rights he has a huge target on his back with the media and anything he says that can be deemed wrong or improper is blown out of proportion and sesationalized. Rather have him on my side than against I just wish as a rep. for hunters he was a little more level headed. The poaching charges in Alaska do not help our cause and as a rep. for the NRA he should have known better...

Look, the majority of the news agencies out there are anti-gun and pro-sensationalism. They are going to jump on any opportunity to say Ted is a nut case. If the guy farts too loud, they report it. The people that feed into it by acting like a 13 year old girl with some new gossip to share just make it worse. As far as that album cover goes sits, I guess you dont know much about marketing yourself or portraying an image in order to do so. You must believe that professional wrestlers really are who they portray on TV and at wrestling events.

Hey NYH I would definitely check the spine of the arrows that you are shooting with the new bow, It really sounds like the spine is off just my opinion and yes I now what a opinion is lol

Welcome back home mister! In 23 years Elmira has changed a tad... instead of being a town with 2 prisons, it's now a prison town.

I never noticed any noise until I shot one day wearing my hearing aids . I could hear a noise with the metal Ultra Nok . I don't hear the D-Loop . I said ........ I don't hear the D-Loop !
