Introducing Kit Carnesi an 8 week old female yellow from Close Corters Labs PA.

Dry cured for 14 days. Then cold smoked with maple. 8 or so hrs of smoke then a day or two rest in the fridge. Repeat until I got the color I like. This batch got a total of 26 hrs of smoke.

Will you marry me ??....

Too bad I was hoping for bacon at the reception!

Enjoy they go from that size to this in a very short time

And this shows the young man the right way to do something, even if you don't believe in it. Later in life, he'll have choices to make............

He legally can not take possession until paperwork is complete. So says Andy the DICK-tater. But hasn't your nephew really owned that gun since birth????..........................

Ice goes in whiskey glass.....

My idea of ice fishing is sitting in my boat in 70* with an ice cold beer in hand!

Think you have to both go and then he does the background check and everyone goes home happy. THANKS A LOT CUOMO YOU D-BAG! Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I think there is an absolutely legal way to do this Dom without a dealer. Not sure if your father or mother is alive but a rifle or shotgun can pass between parents and children/step-children without any check or paperwork. from you to your father or mother and then to your sister/brother and then to your nephew. all with no checks or paperwork. 100% legal.

No need to criticize the thread Val.

I must say some of us here are not very respectful of our lustrous leader I see; D-bag, Dick-tater which seems to have an emphasis on Dick, & up yours! Well I am here to say we need to add A-hole, & a few others ! lol jmo.

BLT City.........

His opening line, "Nice to meet you. I am Hung."

Last day in Florida and I was on fire. Should have been fishing this spot the whole time instead of trying to find new places. Can't wait to come back for spring pompano Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Never read a book, never will. Never studied for a test either. Too boring for me. I'm shocked I've made it this far in life, but I guess my mathematical skills have carried me.

Yes Sir purchased long before safe act.I just wanted to make sure we do it the correct way.I like the old way just a shake of the hand and done but those times are gone when it come to firearm/gun laws

What ? Not The Little Mermaid ?

As much as it sucks do it the legal way. You both go to a licensed dealer he gets a background check and then legally owns the gun. I think the most a dealer can charge for this service is $15. Make an evening out of it and stop of coffee or hot chocolate afterwords to celebrate .

Looks like the blade is on backwards. If it isn't on properly the collar will not screw on all the way which may be causing it to fall off. Also the two ears on the plate need to set in the corresponding notches in the housing so they will not move when the retaining cover is screwed on over it

I'm looking forward to some ice fishing this year. I am a little particular about the ice though. I wanna see 6" of good ice before I venture out. For some reason fish seem to taste better when taken through the ice.

You're entitled to that opinion. But I for one am not a big fan of making knee-jerk laws on the coat tails of tragedy. As stated before, do you think any of these "accidents" would've played out any different if the law was different? Nope. They wouldn't. If it makes you feel better to think it would've then so be it. You're putting blame on the wrong thing, it's on the person that pulled the trigger, not their watch.

Guess I'm just an old fart. I do not pick and choose what laws to obey. As much as I detest these stupid NY regs, I will comply with them until they change. It would be just my luck to be the one hunter checked and have illegal equipment confiscated. No thanks.

Hide the shoes ... What a cute Pup.

I think I mentioned earlier this year that the bacon, mayonnaise and white bread sandwich is a hunting lunch favorite for me. Man that would be the gourmet version.

This should have been named 55 pounds of heaven

Needed to get better at off hand for a hunt in October and shot a pile of 22 at 2" steel targets at ranges of 25 to 75 yds during the summer. 5 to 20 shots a day and 5 as fast as possible reloading and hitting a 50 yard target. (1.5-5 power scope at 1.5 both eyes open) I'll be curious to your results as we are opposite of physical build. I tend to really pull a gun tight to shoulder to roll with the shot as I'm shooting typical heavier kickers (30 magnums and in this case 375HH and 458 win mag). Wrap my sling into my support arm and choke up on my grip as I like a muzzle heavy feel, keep my weight forward on front foot to allow for recoil. Equipment wise my triggers are light and crisp which I think makes off hand easier; use the tip of finger on trigger. Shot the most ever offhand on hunt, and made a nice 150yd snap shot at a smaller animal with confidence.

Bacon, with a side of bacon.

Pulling the 6" wide head of an angry Northern Pike through a 6" hole in the ice can be pretty exciting. There was a time when I lived for that as much as any other outdoors experience.

Well it was -22 this am and the drive revealed people out on the ice at case and Cuba lake.. guess hard water season has begun.. crazy basterds.....

Better? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Potato soup pic this week

Champlain bound! Hoping for some good ice and to not freeze to death in the unheated camp.

Integrity is taking the correct action whether or not you agree with the law. Lets hope this young man receives this weapon and learns all the responsibilities that accompany weapon ownership.

Just remember you can hug and pet the puppy all you want and the other half won’t blink a eye...

Dang it I'm to late to input my useless children's movie knowledge. It was a pretty good movie though.

Ive heard of guys doing it, but I dont know first hand of any. Doe tags, sure. In fact, my daughter signed hers over to me once she was done bow hunting, in case I needed them, which I didnt. I also dont know any women that buy a license and dont hunt, or let their husbands use their buck/either sex tags. Other than news stories, I dont listen to much on facebook as far as those stories go. People are worse on there with made up stuff than a bunch of little old ladies in a sewing circle.

Youre missing out man! Our New Years merg will be in the oven at around 1pm, ready for the table by 5! (None of this is true)

I am retired and consider myself to be an average middle class Joe, from what I am seeing and understanding this tax reform bill is going to put some money in my pocket doing exactly what it is supposed to do. Al

Shorter seasons IMO create a sense of urgency in hunters. Participation rates in shorter seasons are higher per day average, hence the minimal drop off of harvest numbers compared to lengthy seasons. Cut the season by two thirds or so and you still get 90% of the harvest totals. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Was with a buddy on 81 one time in the winter and there was an accident ahead and we stuck there for 3 hours with 6 other people in a passenger van . Everyone was making calls home etc to let people know where they were. Well my buddy and I were going on a winter trip on the weekend with some other guys to my camp to play cards and drink and BS. Well his important call was to his brother to tell him what to bring. He leaves a message..... " You need to bring enough bacon for 7 people for 3 days" and he hangs up. The van is silent..... They all thought he was ordering bacon for us for 3 days cause we were stranded. And we're wondering who was the person that wasn't getting bacon. But his brother brought 10 lbs of bacon and I cooked it all and yes we ate it. Cause it's bacon.

The guy cashing me out at Costco was named "HUNG". Yeah, you try not to laugh at that one with your Mom and young daughter standing right next to you!

I've got a sign in my kitchen that says " either you like bacon, or your wrong".

The girlfriend made fresh guacamole tonight for a snack treat. Alton Brown's recipe as a guideline.

Remember when that huge sheet of ice broke free on Erie and some of the guys fishing on it declined to be rescued? Ice fisherman are a "special" breed...

I thought they were trying to clean up the Hudson ???

Bacon, potato and cheese pie, one of the best things i ever made

I remember (long ago) my Dad telling me... it's not what you make, it's what you spend! Several states (such as my home state of Florida) have no state income tax. Coming from NY, it was a welcomed treat.
