Those look like Beman ICS Whiteouts. I loved using those. Can’t find them anymore. I wish there were more offerings in white.

Just to update I went with cutthroat single Bevel and also got some grim reaper mechanicals which will most likely go on the xbow

Nice. Which Cutthroats did you go with?

I use one early bow season when it’s warm. I too have gotten a bit too much of the “smoke” one time putting it under my seat on the foot platform. Now I hang it next to me instead. They work well.

I love the BAR Shorttrac. The model is the Mark 3. Same design as far as I can tell. All of mine are absolute tack drivers. The A bolts and BLR’s sit a lot more now.

Stuff starting to happen here. Corn, cucumbers, peas, peppers, and tomatoes and pumpkins. I was way behind and got the ground plowed with old 3 bottom Allis chalmers trip plow, then disked and planted over Memorial Day Weekend. I know everyone says tomatoes and peppers gotta get started inside, but I spend much more time on my deer food plots than my human food plots. Got about 4 hours in it all in.

Definite teacher shortage right now. She’ll be able to find something that she really likes.

Thank you! I reached out to the seller.

Any friends who have a .223 bolt gun to borrow? Not to hunt with, but a stepping stone. Louder report, but very, very mild recoil. Then move up to .243, .257 Bob, .260, or even 7mm-08 as others have suggested. Plugs and muffs will go a long way too, in addition to form. A lead sled might be a good thing for the introduction too.

The value of American made vintage scopes price wise has gone through the stratosphere in recent years and it does not seem to matter what make they are, across the board commanding big bucks is the rule of the day.
I picked up a Winchester model 52 bench rifle 20 years ago that had open Olympic sights, my eyes had just begun to start going south so I mentioned to the dealer I may want to mount a period scope on the rifle in the future. So he pulls out a used Redfield 20X 3200 target scope in very good condition and offered it to me for $100 which by the way was the going price back then. Fast forward to today, that same scope now easily goes for over a grand if you can locate one for sale.
I am constantly scanning ebay for good American made scopes and the days of getting them for a song are long gone. If you can find a nice one for a half way decent price my advice is buy it because they are only going to continue their upward climb in value.

I’m seeing that now. Makes me cringe to think how many I sold not too long ago now that could sell for triple what I got. I remember shooting NRA 4 position small bore and using a 20x Unertl scope. They were considered “fine” but were often traded out for newer, even Chinese stuff. They bring crazy money now. This was only about 15-17 years ago.

It’s for an older Savage 99. I’ve got a bunch of matte VX3’s, but I’d like a gloss finish for this one if I can find a good deal. Everything I’ve seen on EBay seems to be pricey. I’d entertain the compact line, Vari-X II, Vari-X III, or even a fixed power. Hoping to find one that someone’s had sitting around for a while that they’d part with.

I’m looking for gloss finish Leupold. Prefer Vari-X III or ultralight but will entertain others. Thanks.

If you want new, I’ve had good luck with titan attachments. Palletforks.com
I found my 6’ set sitting out for sale, but they can typically be found on Craigslist.

Where do you get your fertilizer? I’ve gone the custom mix route before, but it was very expensive.

I was on the quest for a decent SxS in 20 gauge. Ended up scratching the itch with CZ Bobwhites in 28, 20, and 12. They’re really nice for the money.

Is in good shape for a 98 and purr's with 263k miles on it.deff not something looking to get rid of anytime soon as has more sentimental value as it was my grandfathers.am happy to hear the reactions on how these trucks run though!!!!put it on road 2 weeks ago and so far am happy with it.playing around with evap issue now,going to start going down the list
That’s great! I hope I didn’t offend you at all saying I’d be interested in buying it. I read it was your grandpa’s and knew it wouldn’t be fit sale. Was more trying to reiterate that it’s a cool truck. Enjoy it! They’re a lot easier to work on than the newer ones!

That thing is in great shape! Those 4.3 pushrod v6’ers are great! If you wanna sell it, I’m interested!

all depends on sun etc, but if its low sun and not great ground , rye in the fall, imo spring planting take more work, to keep weeds out
Most is pretty opened up for light and the soil is pretty good.

How did the WI Fusion work for you? I have a bag that I plan to use for a backyard plot that I want to seed in the next 1-2 weeks. Need to remove a few small trees in the next week and hopefully it dries up a bit. If I absolutely have to, I'll wait until late summer to plant.
I don’t have a lot of experience with other stuff, but I loved it. Used it for the first time before they changed to name to Fusion. I really only went to straight clover this frost seeding time to give me more herbicide options than with the chicory in there. Thinking I’ll overseed some other goodies in spots later this year too.

I posted earlier about my two larger clover plots, but I am also planning for small kill plots and trail plantings this spring as well. What would be some recommendations for this application? These would be more about trying to encourage deer to stop and hang out for a minute or at least go by this way on the way to the destination plots.

I buy some Chinese chestnut from tractor supply each year. This year I ordered a bunch of stuff from Chief River Nursery. Should be shipping soon I suppose.

I am frost seeding whitetail institute clover into two stands (one 5 acres, one about 4) of what was Fusion (chicory and clover) that was planted 2 years ago. I’ve only ever mowed it, never applied any chemicals to it. What would be the best to spray this plot with once it dries up enough in a month or so to drive a tractor on it?

Been using Aliengear for a long time now. I wear their belts (Bigfoot Gun Belts) too. I’ve tried a lot and like these the best.

Beautiful. I am on the list for the new Tuffhead Evolution. I ordered some Grizzly Stik Samurai 200’s just in case they don’t come through in time.
Have you purchased a leather strop yet? I have the KME sharpener, but need to get a strop.
