Enigma

I'm going to rip and strip this year. Gutless baby. I'm on your side lol.

You nailed the shiplap. The matching heights on the entry door and stairwell window are sweet. Planned I'm sure and that'll look tight when you're finished. I just see exstension jambs in your future lol. Tedious as you probably know but eh, doing it right is always worth the time. Pics! More pics!

Nicely done. I had a flashback or three when I saw the lathe and plaster. Pure evil stuff. Please post up some pics of the moulding when complete.

Welcome aboard

And my apologies to 2012_taco for hijacking his thread. Where is he by the way? Taco! Are you done yet? Inquiring minds want to know how you made out.

Haven't had time to listen to the entire episode but I don't disagree with what I've heard so far. Very informative. And I don't disagree with your opinions on aging venison and not butchering until rigor-mortis has passed for the best quality. We just hold different views on the process. FWIW I encourage you or anyone else that hangs a deer to investigate the "tenderstretch" hanging technique. A simple alternative to traditional hanging that makes a huge difference in meat quality imho. Your's may differ lol. I'm sure we'll discuss this again in the future. In the meantime, best regards.

Feeling quite well this morning actually. I appreciate your concern for my well being. And my hope for you is to contunue learning and educating yourself on hunting related topics with science and fact, rather than old wives tales. Good luck to you as well this season. Best regards.

Much informative info there. Thank you.

This sounds appealing and I will listen to it later. TY.

I could find it myself without doubt. I'm just trying to ascertain where all the "experts" on this forum go to get there info. I always looking for other's perspectives on how to get it done. Appreciate your comment with respect to Wolc but the constant self aggrandizing "experience" he spews daily could negatively influence a new hunter. Why's it so hard? If you're always presenting yourself as an expert, yet post anecdotal shit with no evidence but are then are asked to support your position and cannot, well . . .

10 minutes of time I won't be getting back after reading those articles. One unnamed author and a woman with a BA in literature. More fluff.

Appreciate that but I was asking for a credentialed source. Something with citations, perhaps peer reviewed. A blog on venison care from an apparel company doesn't really cut it for me. Pun intended.

I'm not asking Chef. I'm asking you. And "seriously though", since you're an expert on rigor mortise and meat care, I'd much rather have you direct me to a "google" article specifically supporting your claims. Preferably from someone credentialed in meat science, preferably with repeatable and non anecdotal evidence. It'd save us all time . . . Thanks

Can you cite a credible source, other than yourself, to support these statements? Thanks.

Process that brute asap. The sooner he's in the freezer the sooner you can go kill another one! Seriously, your venison will be fine just like it is. Happy eating!

What town in 6S?

I disagree. They were not forced. They folded like a cheap table. An example of weak capitulation to group think. Bunch of crap.

Who didn't enjoy getting scoped by your 12g slugger while you sighted it in lol? The muzzle blast from a ported Mossberg slug barrel is obnoxious as well. I carried an NEF Ultra slugger for one year. Not horrible to shoot but so so heavy to carry. For some dumb reason though I like putting 3 1/2 turkey loads down my 935. I guess I think if I'm getting walloped the bird is too. Twisted logic I guess.

Nice deer. Congrats on the bow kill! You did the right thing by shooting him again. Forget about the knife business. Keep shooting until they're dead. I tried to stab a liver shot buck once. Once lol.

"I'm together with your plan"

TTT. Trades welcome on this piece. If you're a varmit hunter I would trade for some decent coyote pelts (raw) that I could get tanned. Perhaps a red fox as well. Also trade for Ruger 1022 parts, Mossberg 500 parts or what have you. Like to get this in the hands of someone who can use it so make me an offer. Thanks.
