  2. Just picked up son's first mount from Fish and Wildlife Unlimited in Oakdale, NY. This guy had a big body but a small 6pt rack. Nevertheless being his first I had to have it mounted. Took about 3.2 months from drop off in November to pick up. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

  3. TRUMP EXPLAINED ! Trump supporter or not, here is an attempt to explain what is going on. When was the last time you could vote for the ideal candidate? I'm old, and I always voted. I can't remember ever thinking any were if If you didn't vote for Tweedledee you got Tweedledum. That's the way it was folks. Now consider this . An interesting analogy. You've been on vacation for two weeks, you come home, and your basement is infested with raccoon's. Hundreds of rabid, messy, mean, raccoons have overtaken your basement. You want them gone immediately,so you hire a guy. A pro. You don't care if the guy smells, you need those raccoons gone pronto and he's the guy to do it! You don't care if the guy swears, you don't care if he's an alcoholic, you don't care how many times he's been married, you don't care if he has plumber's crack...you simply want those raccoons gone! You want your problem fixed! He's the guy. He's the best. Period. That's why Trump . Yes, he's a bit of an ass. Yes, he's an egomaniac, but you don't care. The country is a mess because politicians are playing games and we are all sick and tired of Tweedledee and Tweedledum choices. The Democrats are killing us, the Republican Party is gutless, liberals don't have a clue, and illegals are everywhere. You want it all fixed! You don't care that Trump is crude, you don't care that he insults people, you don't care that he had been friendly with Hillary, you don't care that he's been married 3 times, you don't care that he fights with Megyn Kelly and Rosie O'Donnell, you don't care that he doesn't know the name of some Muslim terrorist,...this country is weak, bankrupt, our enemies are making fun of us, we are being invaded by illegal's, we are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo and Hamid is a special group with special rights, to a point where we don't even recognize the country we were born and raised in; AND WE JUST WANT IT FIXED !. Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what the people want. You're sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, and sick of illegal's. You just want this thing fixed. Trump may not be a saint, but no person or company he has ever done business with has come forward and called him corrupt, or hard to do business with. He doesn't have lobbyist money holding him, and he doesn't have political correctness restraining him. All you know is that he has been well educated at the university of Pennsylvania Wharton Business School, seems to have boundless energy, has been very successful, a good negotiator, he has built a lot of things, and he's not a cowardly, deceitful, professional, politician. And he says he'll fix it. You don't care if the guy has bad hair. You just want those raccoons gone. Out of your house!. Now!!!!

  4. I always tell my clients to buy either Delta or Moen products when it comes to plumbing fixtures... they are the only brands with readily available replaceable parts... you can even still get the parts for older Moen and Delta fixtures at your local hardware store. It saves on having to change the entire fixture later on, especially bath fixtures where the controller would have to be changed if the fixture fails... which means tearing apart the wall to get to the controller.

  11. Thinking back at the age of 16 I got my first deer. It was a spike horn. I shot him, gutted him, drugged him out, ate him and had him mounted. All by myself (I shared some meat) This was 36 years ago. He hangs among the giants at my camp and will always be my most special mount. (BTW he spent 4 years ay college with me in the off campus living. How he survived I don't know or….remember!)

  15. The wild game dinner was delicious and I just remembered I didn't take any pics. We had coleslaw, corn, mashed potatoes, venison stroganoff, venison meatloaf, marinated venison tips, and venison soup. For dessert was every type of pie you can think of, they had it there. Man am I stuffed. Now to wash it all down with an ice cold beer. Great night with good friends and a top notch presentation by world champion turkey call maker Gary Anderson. Wish I had won the drawing for his call. Sounded awesome.

  16. Thanks all. This is something we will both cherish for the rest of our lives. I did tell him that the next mount has to be really big to justify the cost. He already has his sights on the big eight pointers that we caught on camera last season. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2

  19. Before the tragic boating accident wherein all of my guns were lost, I had several loaded firearms scattered around my 800 square foot home. Adult visitors were told that every visible gun was loaded and that they were not to touch them. Children have never been welcomed into my home without a leash and an attending adult.

  23. Well on a related note; the simple little light fixture for the bathroom has also been a struggle. I wasn't apposed to buying a light fixture at a BB store as much as I was the plumbing fixtures so we (wife and I) had been to HD and Lowe's a bunch of times but NOTHING really struck us as the "one" for us. I know it's not too big of a deal and we shouldn't sweat it but neither place had the right one. Well today I shot over to Shanor and browsed a bit. http://shanorroyalitelighting.com/ A lady I was acquainted with a number of years ago worked there. Thankfully she was in and we made small talk for a few minutes reacquainting and then got down to business. 3 minutes of browsing and I said the magic words......"I'll take THAT one". The price was a bit higher than a BB store but the quality is better (from what I can see) and the finish appears to be much better. Win/win/win.......... My wife just got home from work, now we'll see if I can keep it. Stay tuned..............................

  27. I love my BLOW up JOBBERS. I use the ones that go over your neck and a lot of guys use these ones for early season fishing with the mandatory pfd wearing requirements http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=1547466&destination=/catalog/product.jsp?productId=1806463&type=product&avad=55963_cac10b6a&WT.mc_id=al41227&Subid1=SID&subacctid=41227&subacctname=41227&adname=Custom+Link&adtype=cl&adid=NA&utm_medium=AFF&utm_source=41227&rid=12&WT.tsrc=AFF they work like a belt and are much better than wearing one of those doofy looking orange rectangle pfds over your neck to get in the way of everything. There is also this one. The same exact style just a different color and a little bit cheaper http://www.cabelas.com/product/cabela-s-essential-2500-belt-pack-pfd/2181514.uts?destination=%2Fbrowse.cmd%3FcategoryId%3D153181080&No=0 You Can't Beat My Meat!

  32. I like to say Trump, if he's elected, will be either the best president the US has had in a very long time, or the worst. No middle ground on that one, it's a big gamble like putting one's life savings on black at one of his casinos!

  36. I think the "Bugbuster" scopes are designed for air rifle recoil. I've had one on a .22 for several years now and it's a lot of fun shooting CB caps at grasshoppers or dandelion stems. Paralax adjustment down to about 9 feet. ;-]

  38. We also did Applebee's tonight. I thought the cedar salmon was great. My daughter was quite pleased with her kid's meal (macaroni/cheese/chicken), especially the Oreo Sunday. The wife had some type of taco combo deal that was pretty good also. I might have been a little short on the calorie count with just the salmon & vedgies, but ended up ok with a tall draft beer and after cleaning up their leftovers. The food quality and service were good and the prices fair.

  42. Congrats to your son on his first buck and that is a fine looking mount. I always regretted not getting my first one mounted, a busted up 7-point. I didn't have the cash to do it back when I was still in school and my dad was not all that into hunting. He is a skilled woodworker and he made me a nice little plaque to attach the antlers to. Many years later, my friend had large buck mounted by a taxidermist who did a poor job, using a form that was much too small and looked way out of proportion with the huge antlers. A few seasons later, he killed another large-bodied buck with a smaller rack. This time, he took that, and the larger racked mount to another taxidermist. That guy made him a great shoulder mount from the fresh cape and the big antlers, and a European mount from the smaller antlers and the fresh skull. I ended up with the left-over mounted cape, to which I attached my first buck's rack. My dad made me a beautiful walnut plaque for the back, and it turned out pretty good. There is nothing wrong having shoulder mounts made from smaller antlered deer. To me, it is more about "special" antlers than it is big antlers. Obviously the first one is special, probably more so than the one with the largest "score". For me, the first one with a bow was worthy (coincidentally another 7-point), as was the one with the most points, and the first one at camp. It is important that the cape/form size be in proportion to the antlers and your son's buck looks just right in that respect.
