These are what’s going on it

Ruben's must be in the air Had great day yesterday. Spent the morning with the family while some Venison Pastrami was in the smoker. I grilled some Rubens for dinner

Just wanted to show these off and brag about my stepfather some. Tom's newest hobby is a little leather craft. He's been showing me bits and pieces of his work the last couple times I've visited. I found the old knives in my cabinet. They were my grandfather's knives that I'd saved years ago. Neither had a sheath so I asked him to make me some. I stopped by today and he was proud as punch to give these to me. He even thought to dig through my camping gear stored at their place, find my hatchet and made a cover for that too. Tom will be 75 in a couple days. Don't know how he's made it the last 25 years being married to my mother but I he's a survivor! Thanks again Dad.

While waiting for my two mounts to come back from this past season I decided to get some old fence post and make a base to hang them on instead of the wall

Homemade pasta carbonara with guanciale and chicken parmigiana.

Our big 8 made it he will be a good one this season

I found a few old photos of Joe, and the "confirmation" message of his new place:

Time to update for 2021 turkey season scouting and beyond! Hope all your woods times, are good times! Will need a Mod to pin this.

Homemade Arancini and potato croquettes.

Typically it was used in a procedure called an “Addadicktome” back in the 40’s and 50’s. They command a very good price on the secondary market.

Tonights Early Dinner before work. Found some beautiful imported pappardelle at Pellegrino in Albany. So I made Pappardelle Bolognese with venison sausage and fennel.

Corned venison Ruben sandwiches, good god these turned out so good! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Get our stock here, http://www.fingerlakesaquaculture.com/ Good guy. Nice fish. Get your minnows established first. We submerged some pallets about 3 feet deep with longer legs on the deep side to level them. Minnows reproduce on the bottoms. Ours is spring fed, supports rainbows.

I don't think deer age gives a confidence index with results vs matson lab but if a deer has been eating off a corn pile all year or there's really mild winters like down south CA analysis sometimes doesn't work well. Cementum deposit rings are harder to make out. Doesn't seem to be that abnormal. It's a good idea to pull both sides if you see it has an abcess or compaction to make it favor a single side giving it uneven wear. Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk

haha pulled some cameras yesterday. This sums up my squirrel hunting season pretty well

Lot of inference to draw from a one second in time photo.....

Alive and free? LOL! After the govt sics the military on it's own people, you will feel free? You will find your face under a jack boot forever. That is the mindset of people from NY, but not from people in most of the country like the south, Texas, Oklahoma, Arizona, Montana, Wyoming, New Mexico and many other free states. The law won't help you either, because it's not going to hear any cases regarding gun rights. They will be gone. And they will be taken to make you comply with everything the left plans to force on you from there on, because there won't be crap you can do about it then. People who believe this fight will be an open field battle between the military and Americans are clueless. And I don't believe the govt thinks that will be the case either. That's not even close to the method that will be employed by Americans who refuse to be "RULED". Besides, not all of the military will follow unconstitutional orders from tyrants controlling the govt, and most veterans will not side with the military when the govt comes after them. This leftist government is about to start the most vicious uprising in the history of this land, and it's not about disarming everyone, it's about total control of disarmed citizens. Over in about an hour? It will never be over, until every man who wants to be free, or every tyrant is dead. Any war against gun owners in this land will have NO Rules of Engagement. Wish good luck to the gun owners who comply in the hope these tyrants will leave them alone to cry and moan in the future, because it won't.

So its between 2.5 and 9.5? Seems hard to argue with that. Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk

Chef sushi night Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Checked the two totes tanks yesterday around noon. The first had barely 15gal. Checked today around 3PM, and the first was full, and the second had 50gal and the sap was flowing fast. Temps were dropping fast, so I don't think the second tank will gain much. I'll collect in the morning, and start boiling as soon as the head tank is full. Figuring we'll have 450+gal of sap. Tomorrow isn't supposed to get much above freezing with the high winds. So probably not much sap flowing Tomorrow.

My buddy makes a banging venison Ravi with ground meat. I have made venison brociole and really enjoy it. I also like venison sausage in tomato sauce-adds something Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Early St Patrick’s day dinner reubens and cabbage steaks.

Was a beautiful night, saw a few rabbit eyes glowing but that was it. Found that my blind that made it all fall and winter blew away, so I sat there in the chair a lot more exposed than I would have like, still no return vocals so nots sure it mattered. Went back for a hike and prep work today and found it about 800 yards away hung up in a hedgerow, looks to be undamaged too.

I thinks it's great idea too. The useless still spend the money and they make my earning power go up. Stoner at work complains he hasn't received a raise in 5 years. I asked for more money after 4 months, and I think I could have pushed for more. I'll take it right out of his wallet.

Did a little hike and cooking today in the woods.

If you just stand against a tree and dont move deer will walk past in bow range ,movement makes them skittish.

Two Joe's passed away peacefully, late in the morning, on November 21st of last year. One was a long time hunting and fishing buddy of mine. He was a year younger than me, and we had been friends since grade school. He died in a hospital, after a short and sudden illness. I know for certain, that he is in a better place now, because the big Guy himself sent me a confirmation message (I had sent up a prayer request, after hearing the news). Since this six-pointer may have drawn it's last breath, at exactly the same instant that my buddy Joe did, I decided to name it in his honor. Joe is not my biggest buck, but he now occupies the top spot on my trophy wall. I moved him in from out in the barn today.

That term is a pet peeve of mine. THEY make it sound like dealers can just hand guns over the table for cash at "gun shows"

What is the "GUN SHOW LOOPHOLE"?

So when the laws change and what you own makes you a felon....what are you going to do?

My brother lives in Manhattan Beach, California. Every third house there is a TV, Movie or sports star currently or has been. But I can tell you it's considered very rude behavior to gawk, stare , point or otherwise bring attention to them. Most of them off their performance platform are pretty normal people with pretty normal lives.

Thought it was Bernie without mittens.

Would candy corn or an over abundance of salt in its diet cause “unusual wear”? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Go GoPro Go! another +5% pre-market. We'll see if this holds up. If this continues, I'll be forced to pay for both of @sodfather's daughters weddings and buy a house in Scottsdale with @Chefas my personal butler!

Make sure you post up final project. I'm doing a barrel pedestal for the three bucks I took this year. Still not sure how to tie it all together. most of the barrel pedestals using the mounting bracket leave the base alone with no habitat. Yours looks similar in thought, using the fence posts as the feature supporting the mounts. I picked up a barrel and a week later I saw someone turn a barrel into a whiskey bar, opening the barrel up. My head is spinning, lol.

That's some very nice leather work!! Dressed up those old knives and your hatchet nicely! Great work from Tom!

Chef and Rob, those sound great. Using venison for the braciole is brilliant. I think my go to Venison with tomato sauce is Bolognese style using ground meat or ground sausage. I love the tomato-less style of Bolognese too. My cousins camp has a special camp recipe with includes several slices of hot banana peppers and it is really good!

Ya just can't fix stupid!!! If I was the one standing next to him, the range officer would have been the least of his worries. I've mentored many new shooters, and given many hunter ed classes. And suffice to say, any time I made a safety correction, that person never forgot it! Also hunted a time or two with idiots. But only once, as I never hunted with them again!!!!

I lost track of a camera about a year and a half ago. It’s a Browning strike force 850 HD. I didn’t think anyone stole it, just thought I got forgetful. I looked for it when I went on card changing rounds, but I kind of gave up on it. Today we were burning some deadfall and limbs and out of the corner of my I eye I spotted a tiny glare under the leaves. Turned out to be my missing trail camera. It was about 95% covered up with leaves and twigs, and in a spot that I thought I left it at, just a couple of trees over from where I thought. First photos were from Sept 29th, 2019. In early October ‘19 a small buck raked it off the tree and pawed it around for 10 minutes. Left it face up. In mid October a Opossum came back on three successive nights and covered it with leaves. A little more each night until it was covered up. Probably pissed on it too. I picked it up today and it took a photo of me. Freaking Browning cams and Duracells. Killer combo.

Holly hanna.. that's ridiculous.... I thought for sure a bucket of 22lr would be worth $1000.00.... maybe next week.

French toast and venison country sausage. Charlie had a scrambled egg.

Built a new bench and used some left over vinyl plank flooring for the top. I didn’t like having my presses bolted permanently to the bench. So I had some 2 inch squared tubing laying around and I bought a harbor freight receiver hitch that bolts to a bumper and bolted it to the bottom of my bench . Drilled a hole and welded on a nut and installed a thumb screw to tighten when I install the press . Welded a piece of angle iron to the squared tubing and bolted on some left over pieces of 2x6 for the press mount. Works pretty good I’m very happy with it z
