There were israeli Troops and police all over the place . When boys turn 18 , they have to join the army for 3 years . The girls , 2 years . It was nothing to see these guys all over the country with weapons slung over their shoulder . They looked like Boy Scouts with guns . We were told not to get caught taking pics of them with their guns ! Nothing like riding along in a tour bus and seeing an armored vehicle with a 50 cal machine gun on it ......... It was a great trip . Got to soak my feet in the River Jordan where Christ was baptized . We went to numerous places . The food was great in the hotels . Did a lot of walking !

I just got back from the HOLY LAND . We visited Many places in Jordan and Israel . We were supposed to do an extended tour to Egypt but that was cancelled out prior to leaving the USA . Later about the trip . Got a lot of catching up to do .

Yeah , I was thinking of the overall width . The way many of the bows are made , they could have 18" limbs and be less than 17" wide due to the curvature , etc ..

I could never stand the smell of a cigar and wondered how folks could smoke them . To me , it smelled like the Land Fill was on fire .

More of a Technically Bill . If the regulation means A to A then the Tac 15 wouldn't be legal . But .....if it's overall length is outside to outside , it would be okay . Gotta find out before dropping $1600 on one .

Question: Is a crossbow and a bolt defined in the new law? Answer: Yes. The crossbow must have a stock with a working safety, and a minimum limb of 17 inches. It must have a minimum peak draw weight of 100 pounds, and a maximum peak draw weight of 200 pounds. The overall length (butt of stock to front of the limbs) must be at least 24 inches. A bolt (the term used for the "arrow" shot from a crossbow) must be at least 14 inches long (excluding the point). Is the minimum limb dimension the overall length or is it axle to axle . The PSE TAC 15 has an A-A of 16.75" ......

Oh yeah . The Marlin 39A 22 that I bought was from "Hughs Sports Shop" in Dansville . It was one of the 1st Army / Navy type shops that I had ever been in ........

I bought a used Marlin 22 model 39A in 1955 when I was 14 years old . I still have it and the only thing I ever did was replace the front sight that was broken when I had bought it . Killed a lot of woodchucks with that gun .

I was expecting something similar to that ..... ;D

I put a 1.5 X 4.5 Bushnenn Sportview on my NEF Huntsman . I'm good out to 150 yards . That git 'r done !

Welcome to Hunting NY ..........

Nothing smells worse than walking out of a building and have to walk past 3 - 4 people milling around blowing smoke . But .......... as far as the Government goes ....what a turn-around . It wasn't too long ago our government was subsidizing the tobacco growers !

I bought one of those Electric Fly Swatter Tennis Racquets at Harbor Freight a couple years ago . The directions say not to touch the wire mesh when holding the button . I tried it on a couple flys and not much happened . I figured it wasn't working and touched it with my finger while holding the button down with my other hand . Kaaa-zaaaaap ! Holy crap . That bugger puts out a charge ! Lesson Learned - follow the instructions !

Welcome to Hunting NY

I agree . It was the ethical thing to do ! Better to have someone tag it than to leave it lay there .

Real nice buck ! Congrats ........

Great pics Wooly ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/thumbup.gif[/img]

How many times can you re-invent the wheel ? The same thing gets said over and over with just enough of a BS change to make it look like something else !

The only thing the "Cash for Clunkers" did was to get a lot of Obama bumper stickers off the highways ! http://www.downsouthhuntingforums.com/images/smiles/2cents.gif[/img]

[table][tr][td] ONLY A MAN WOULD ATTEMPT THIS [/t] [table][tr][td] Just try reading this without laughing till you cry!!! Pocket Tazer Stun Gun, a great gift for the wife. A guy who purchased his lovely wife a pocket Tazer for their anniversary submitted this: Last weekend I saw something at Larry's Pistol & Pawn Shop that sparked my interest. The occasion was our 15th anniversary and I was looking for a little something extra for my wife Julie. What I came across was a 100,000-volt, pocket/purse-sized Tazer. The effects of the Tazer were supposed to be short lived, with no long term adverse affect on your assailant, allowing her adequate time to retreat to safety...?? WAY TOO COOL! Long story short, I bought the device and brought it home... I loaded two AAA batteries in the darn thing and pushed the button. Nothing! I was disappointed. I learned, however, that if I pushed the button and pressed it against a metal surface at the same time, I'd get the blue arc of electricity darting back and forth between the prongs. AWESOME!!! Unfortunately, I have yet to explain to Julie what that burn spot is on the face of her microwave. Okay, so I was home alone with this new toy, thinking to myself that it couldn't be all that bad with only two AAA batteries, right? There I sat in my recliner, my cat Gracie looking on intently (trusting little soul) while I was reading the directions and thinking that I really needed to try this thing out on a flesh & blood moving target. I must admit I thought about zapping Gracie (for a fraction of a second) and then thought better of it. She is such a sweet cat. But, if I was going to give this thing to my wife to protect herself against a mugger, I did want some assurance that it would work as advertised. Am I wrong? So, there I sat in a pair of shorts and a tank top with my reading glasses perched delicately on the bridge of my nose, directions in one hand, and Tazer in another. The directions said that: a one-second burst would shock and disorient your assailant; a two-second burst was supposed to cause muscle spasms and a major loss of bodily control; and a three-second burst would purportedly make your assailant flop on the ground like a fish out of water. Any burst longer than three seconds would be wasting the batteries. All the while I'm looking at this little device measuring about 5" long, less than 3/4 inch in circumference (loaded with two itsy, bitsy AAA batteries); pretty cute really, and thinking to myself, 'no possible way!' What happened next is almost beyond description, but I'll do my best. I'm sitting there alone, Gracie looking on with her head cocked to one side so as to say, 'Don't do it stupid,' reasoning that a one second burst from such a tiny lil ole thing couldn't hurt all that bad.. I decided to give myself a one second burst just for heck of it. I touched the prongs to my naked thigh, pushed the button, and... HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. WHAT THE... !!! I'm pretty sure Hulk Hogan ran in through the side door, picked me up in the recliner, then body slammed us both on the carpet, over and over and over again. I vaguely recall waking up on my side in the fetal position, with tears in my eyes, body soaking wet, both nipples on fire, testicles nowhere to be found, with my left arm tucked under my body in the oddest position, and tingling in my legs! The cat was making meowing sounds I had never heard before, clinging to a picture frame hanging above the fireplace, obviously in an attempt to avoid getting slammed by my body flopping all over the living room.. Note: If you ever feel compelled to 'mug' yourself with a Tazer, one note of caution: There is NO such thing as a one second burst when you zap yourself! You will not let go of that thing until it is dislodged from your hand by a violent thrashing about on the floor! A three second burst would be considered conservative! A minute or so later (I can't be sure, as time was a relative thing at that point), I collected my wits (what little I had left), sat up and surveyed the landscape. [*] My bent reading glasses were on the mantel of the fireplace. The recliner was upside down and about 8 feet or so from where it originally was. My triceps, right thigh and both nipples were still twitching. My face felt like it had been shot up with Novocain, and my bottom lip weighed 88 lbs. I had no control over the drooling. Apparently I had crapped in my shorts, but was too numb to know for sure, and my sense of smell was gone. I saw a faint smoke cloud above my head, which I believe came from my hair. I'm still looking for my testicles and I'm offering a significant reward for their safe return! PS: My wife can't stop laughing about my experience, loved the gift and now regularly threatens me with it! If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!

I think part of the problem is the damn Media . They keep saying the price of gas is going through the ceiling . If people hear that enough , they accept it as fact and the rich , greedy gas companies jack up the price .

Someone had sent me an e-mail some time ago that gave locations of known oil locations in the US where we have never drilled on shore . It said we have more oil than we could ever use . I had deleted it when I was cleaning up my mail . Has anyone heard of this before ? Could we have that much and if so why not drill ?

When this hits 98 pages I am going to Lock The Thread ! ???
