  1. Beautiful day to be out on top of the mountain, took most of the day but we got it done. Stand is in place, now just need to order the redneck.
  2. Now if that's true, that is just silly. What's not to like, they are cumbersome yes but fun as heck to shoot. I've heard everything from the bowhunter aficionados that the reason we want to hunt with a crossbow is because we are lazy,we are a buch of hunters that want instant gratification, we don't want to put the time in to be proficient with a bow etc... but not one valid reason to not include crossbow. It boggles my mind...lol.. I just don't get it. What makes these people tick....lol
  3. They can grow outside and inside, however those growing inside would not be visible, the "inny" tumor would either be affixed to an organ or to the chest cavity. The outward fibroma atleast those I have seen don't look like that. Just my opinion.
  4. I've seen deer with those warts, doesn't seem to be what I see in the pic.
  5. I still don't see why we need graphs and stats. , we have a slight upward trend in the recruitment of hunters, that's great. But I still have not heard one valid reason as to why we should not include crossbow in the archery season, what are you bowhunters so scared of? I have not heard one valid reason? I just don't get it. Why the kickback?
  6. I think Fibromas are mostly found on the interior of a person / animal, typically masses found on organs or affixed to the chest cavity. Looks like an old wound.
  7. Not nuts at all, but I think as parents we need to be realistic, atleast my goal is to use sports as a stepping stone to get my kids foot into a college (I'm not even concerned with MLB), sports help in getting a kid a faster look especially if they are gifted in a sport. Just a side note if he plans on going to college make sure his grades are priority as there's very little sports scholarship money and thats only if he gets into a d1 or d2 school, d3 schools offer no sports scholarship. All the money to be had for all 3 tiers is academic money (grades are key). Having said that my 16yr. old has always played up from when he was young. He tried out for varsity in HS as a freshman (his HS has both a jv and varsity program) and made the team and was a starting pitcher as a freshman and most times was facing kids 3 to 4 years older and loved it and had loads of fun and is a stud among kids much older then him. If a kid has natural talent and is gifted it makes no sense to beat up on kids that are not on the same level, does absolutely nothing to help him get better. He needs to be around kids of his equal or better to motivate him. Again, each kid is different, but if he is talented no reason why he can't compete at a higher level. Remember from this point on baseball is more a mental game, if he handles that well he's in good shape.
  8. Can't wait to get started, looks like High School ball may start up soon, first HS practice tomorrow. My 16yr. old is very excited, hes been working hard during the winter and up thru now with his travel team. He committed to a national team so alot of traveling nationally in the near future, end of May we head to Florida for a few days with the travel team, hopefully some spring HS ball then in the summer is alot of traveling, need to make sure I save alot of my vacation time..lol.. there's one tourney in Georgia in June and that alone is like 6 days of ball. Also excited for my 12 yr. old (another lefty) starts ball this Saturday and my daughter starts softball, my heads spinning already., but they all love it so gotta make it work. Pics from last weekends scrimmage, wish I could post a video, his slider is so filthy..lol Anybody else getting the kids out on the field?
  9. My sons team played against Nazier this past fall, his velo off the bump was up to 96 mph, insane for a 16yr. Old, he recently committed to Miami university.
  10. Your a braver man then me, I have dealt with reptiles my whole life and I know gators can stay under water motionless for hours on end without surfacing, my luck I would walk right on top of one...lol. and with all the invasive fish like giant pacu, piranha etc...not me..lol
  11. Lard bread for breakfast. Beyond good.
  12. This one is 8' with the splayed legs probably more like 7' high,, I will have to see how much height I can get with my bucket.
  13. Nice, I was thinking of using the bucket of my tractor to place the redneck on the stand.
  14. Not really, with the elevator brackets and PT lumber I'm all in for $375, alot cheaper then paying redneck close to $900 for a metal 8' stand.
  15. It will overlook a food plot, sanctuary and a hillside. Its gonna be way up on the highest point of my property.
  16. Yep paid $60 at lowes for a sheet of 3/4 treated ply.
  17. Yes sir, I have the cross braces but not shown in pic because the legs are coming off for transport.
  18. I built an 8'ft elevated stand today that will house a 5x5 redneck blind.
  19. I dont think anyone could answer question #1 until the actual bill is passed and rules written. As for your second question, my son recently took the online archery course and received his archery license online immediately following completion.
