Got out on Oneida for a few hours today, popped one hole and never moved. 25 perch and 2 eyes, 7 short eyes also. Got nasty this afternoon so I left them biting! Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

Highly prized fire starter for all you survivalists. Only $8 for a full sandwich bag. Includes a variety of colors. I will even throw in free shipping to the lower 48. Don’t get caught without this specialized lint.

Turn back the clock and the same words you typed could have been written for the passage of the safe act. No idea about how to implement it or being written by those that knew nothing about firearms sure didn't stop them from running a vote through in the middle of the night.

AOC looks at her globe and says it has not moved at all.

Tastes like chicken, the dog. Not the deer. Hunted fallow in Spain, very good table fare. Took one of mine to the hotel I was staying that had a bistro type place on first floor. They made a couple dishes with that and a whole neighborhood showed up for one heck of a party. They did up my mouflon sheep too. Honest, of everything I have eaten in the cervid family, whitetail is on the bottom of just about any game I have tried. A 13yr old tahr (type of goat) is right there too. Also on the dog thing, everywhere but here, having a tracking dog is part and parcel to ethical hunting. Dog goes right in the field with you, not just when you can't find something. Some of the dogs I have hunted with track 4-500 animals a year. Especially true on game ranches in South Africa. The dog gets to track even bang flops, just to keep in practice. With hunting dogs, running baboons with specialist dogs is the single best time i have ever had afield.

Several fellows on the Airedale board use their dogs here in the states to recover Deer, had this photo sent in from a hunter in France using his dog to recover Deer in the same way done in the states, Fallow Deer instead of Whitetails. Al

Are "Hunting" and "Liberal" mutually exclusive terms? I'll respond literally. No, they are not mutually exclusive. My wife would argue that I am definitely a liberal hunter. Saying I hunt what I want, whenever I want, as much as I want, and never ask her about it. I would argue that I am definitely a conservative hunter, I only hunt certain species, only when in season, never as much as I would like, and always tell her when I am going.

Absolutely have to see it that way. Almost all serial killers start out killing small animals. Your desire to hunt may just be symptom and first step that you are a serial killer. Denied!!!!! NEXT

I am the same way. I actually clean as I'm cooking with items I am done with. And I don't have OCD - people just need to learn to put everything back where it flipping belongs lol.

Each year after age 60, my world tilts a little more!

Not Humorous but .....

Thank you for the heads up. I left work 10 minutes early took the 25 min drive and was able to get the 243 ammo for my sons rifle.

So the earth's magnetic north pole has been moving rapidly away from the USA. Its magnetic field must of moved as well , this field protects us from the suns radiation. Yet no one talks about it in the terms of global warming or climate change seems the further its shifted the worse the warm up has been... Perhaps because there Is no money to be made on this, seems like the heavy investors in "green" energy are also the ones calling the shots. Add to this the amount of plastic in the oceans acting like a solar cover and global warming can be tossed out of the carbon conversations. Always follow the money.

Similar statements were made prior to SafeAct and yet here we are..

Walmart in Hamburg has a good supply of 20 gauge high brass lead bird shot some 243 7 mm and 3030 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's too hard to funnel billions of dollars to special interests in the name of magnetic pole shifting.

Where’s our Biden supporters on this ? I would like to hear what they have to say .

I think that global warming has more to do with the natural cycles of the Earth than it does with human interference. Do we have an impact? sure. But I don't think that we caused the atmosphere to warm and I don't think that our actions will prevent it from continuing to warm. The Earth is in a warming part of the cycle, and in a few hundred or a few thousand years, it'll cool again. Is another ice age in Earth's future? probably. According to Wiki, we've had cold spells in 1650, 1770, and again in 1850 that were like mini ice ages. People just need to "chill" out and stop throwing money at things that we can't control.

I tossed in Chinaman , just for entertainment purposes..... One great thing about the FD was everyone got along ,if you can do, the job that’s all that matters , and nobody is all touchy-feely about BS . My retirement party was MC’d by a black guy , attended by black ,white ,male, female ,Hispanic, gay , straight and even a vegan . One of my favorite drinking partners is a bi racial, lesbian, just wish she’d not chew tobacco and spit in a glass .

Hunted either end of the Quebec caribou season and the winter animals were good too. Ridiculous cold. Shame those days wont happen again with population crash. Have had red deer in Portugal, Spain, and New Zealand similar to elk imo. Axis deer is also outstanding, and you'd rank it right up there. Have had moose from various places and it never has disappointed. Top 5 overall in no order, Caribou, Kudu, Zebra, Moose, Springbok Top 5 eating deer family Caribou, Moose,Elk, Axis, Fallow

Please remember the rule: No thread crapping

I owned a cleaning business for 29 years. I’d have gone broke if everyone thought like you.

Wow..... You guys have lights that turn by them selves too....Nobody in my house ever turns them on but they are always on......LOL

I pray that you never ever need them. Its like having car insurance. You dont think about it until you need it and if you dont have it than you are SOL

Nope your normal!! My ocd is me constantly turning lights of in the house where someone was but never turned them off.

Wow it is officially off season. We are talking about doing dishes and house cleaning.....lol. And we are 3 months from turkey season.... And have to add that the other popular thread is the poles shifting. And not fishing poles.....c'mon spring.

Here is an Orwellian prediction. Let's for sake of argument say that the government has successfully removed all firearms from civilian ownership (and no one is manufacturing their own using 3d printers or CNC machines). Crossbows will be next, and compounds bows after that. It ultimately isn't about firearms, per se, it is about disarming the populace. For those of you who think this is far fetched and our government would never do that, remember history and that our government has embraced slavery, enacted many laws and policies for the purposes of discrimination, exterminated native americans, deliberately infected them with smallpox, internment camped Japanese citizens, deliberately infected the Tuskegee airmen with syphilis, deliberately exposed soldiers to nuclear bomb fallout, told first responders the air at ground zero WTC was safe to breath,....TBD

"money can't buy happiness" ....but it sure the hell can get a lot out of your way that makes one unhappy.

This actually is not funny, but sad for America, and here is why. This is MSNBC, part of the MSM. This is parody and belongs on SNL, Colbert, Maher, etc not the MSM. This is precisely why the Right does not trust the MSM and considers them Fake News.

Explains why I keep getting lost.

I am very left of center in my beliefs but love hunting. Mostly with a bow though i can take or leave the gun hunting. I grew up in Germany and as an outsider i have to point out that the gun craze is a strictly american cultural thing. I think it is a little cray cray personally,but how one grows up of course shapes ones values. I never in my life was in a situation where I thought that i needed a gun. I realize a lot of people on here dont get me,but that's fine and a fairly mutual feeling. I dont claim to be right or wrong and people have to figure out their own belief systems. That is the beauty and also the ugly side of living in a democracy. There is whackiness on both extremes,but generally the more moderate majority keeps things in check. If you dont like some folks posts here dont read them. I dont engage with a few characters on here because it is pointless.

Stopping work on the pipeline makes Warren Buffet happy . The billionaire owns the railway and the cars that haul the oil via the railway . Buffet is a staunch financial supporter on the democrat party .

Oh, I so wish we could freeze this thread in time before someone comes to muck it up with common sense and intelligence. This is one beautiful collection of nonsense nuggets.

Every person who has ever lived. Every time we "mansplain" something to our significant others, every time we lay down the law for our kids, or think that we know what's better for someone else than they do. Power simply magnifies the ability to exert control. It's human nature. And if we recognize the tendency in ourselves to dictate rather than discuss, to assume intractable positions, to demonize those who don't agree with us, and to harness righteous indignation - maybe we will have a fighting chance of beating our own nature.

I lament the good old days when you could go out as a lab, have a few beers, and not have to worry about every word you say potentially offending someone. But the pendulum has swung, and this is the fallout. Believe me, I get it. Even a comment regarding how we need to talk through our minor issues before they become major issues can cause offense, somehow. But I also recognize that at 53 yr old, I'm a dinosaur, and I actually think it's important to try to appreciate other folks viewpoint, I don't want to cause offense inadvertently. Plus, I like my job. So it's dot the i's, cross the t's, by the book when it comes to my professional life. This Biden executive order feels like more of the same to me. It only applies to official federal documents, and the intent is to reduce potentially offensive language. That seems at face value to be reasonable. But like most things, I suspect that it will be weaponized for political purposes, and that makes me sad. What do they say about the road to hell being paved with good intentions?

Today Dick sporting goods in Batavia had 20 boxes of 9mm ammo $16.99 20 rounds. 20 boxes of 308 and 45 19.99 20 rounds.

Stupid full moon. So glad I’m not hunting tomorrow morning!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'd love to sit down with you too and look at pics and listen to your experiences. I've had moose, excellent. Caribou, yrs ago, probably 30+, so really don't remember. Elk is darn good too. The best I've tasted, black buck from Texas. Unfortunately, all these critters were taken by others, lol.

Let's all remember some basic FACTS we were taught in elementary school. The earth is approx 4 billion years old today. The earth is heated by the sun and its proximity. The whole earth, all of it, at some time was a tropical rainforest and dinosaurs roamed. Some cataclysmic event occured that caused a global ice age and killed off the dinosaurs. Glaciers than reshaped the earth and melted. So if our proximity to the sun has not changed (moved further away) than logically the earth would be warming post-the cataclysmic ice age event. This warming would be to its natural state which logically would be a tropical rainforest, since that is what it was prior. We have only been recording weather patterns since 1880. That's 140 years of known versus 4 billion years of unknown. Consider 140 years to earth is less than 1 second to our lifetime. The glaciers melted and so will our polar ice caps eventually as earth warms toward it s prior natural state. Mother nature ALWAYS gets her way! Man's abilities are laughable compared to hers. Is global warming real? YES Is global warming caused by man? NO Can man mitigate global warming? Not a chance.

Yes, it's all in the eye, more precisely sensitivities, of the offended. In this instance, the offended person does not need to be a "Chinaman" (which is an offensive moniker), or chinese at all for that matter. They just need to be offended by the language. While we should not be using labels that are offensive, this "offended my sensitivities" culture has been weaponized to hurt people under the guise of virtue.

I had my wife take the course at our local Sportsmens Club - https://www.rcsportsmensclub.org/ She asked me to sit with her and help her but I declined because I wanted her to learn as much as she could without listening to me , the Instructor had her fire a Black Powder gun and a couple rounds of .22 , she was thrilled to no end when she received a 100 on her test ! And yeah I've been hearing about it ever since , but she did it on her own !

When one assumes, they are Intellectually superior they get bored and do things like joining a hunting forum hoping to prove to others they are the superior beings and above the rest by bragging about who they swap spit with and how much more intelligent they are than the rest of the herd. Instead of contributing anything they spend their time trying to make others feel inferior and take cheap shots at ones that don't look at things their way or think like them. Their opinion is suppose to be yours and if it isn't you are stupid or worse. Pretty sad way to spend your time, This about sums it up: "The trap in having a superior IQ is you may know you are smarter than others, but you might not be smart enough to realize that you are still mostly stupid."

Oh my, should I get down on my knees and kiss your ring superior one? What we have here with the Versatile "non hunter" is a perfect example of a sockpuppet account, having operated a message board for close to twenty years I can spot them a mile away. A sock puppet or sockpuppet is an online identity used for purposes of deception. The term, a reference to the manipulation of a simple hand puppet made from a sock, originally referred to a false identity assumed by a member of an Internet community who spoke to, or about, themselves while pretending to be another person. The use of the term has expanded to now include other misleading uses of online identities, such as those created to praise, defend, or support a person or organization, to manipulate public opinion, or to circumvent restrictions, such as viewing a social media account that they are blocked from, suspension or an outright ban from a website. A significant difference between the use of a pseudonym and the creation of a sockpuppet is that the sockpuppet poses as an independent third-party unaffiliated with the main account operator. Sockpuppets are unwelcome in many online communities and forums and should be banned!
