    @NYBowhunter small world! I just checked the CMSV roster and I grew up with the head coach. We lived in same town and played little league, travel team, and through high school baseball growing up with the head coach (before I quit after sophomore year to drink/party).

    Very small, head coach is a great down to earth guy.

    I don't even want to know what it takes. House ball is enough work lol

    Yes stick with house ball for as long as you can,  travel ball / showcases/ tourny's can wait until they are teenagers and at that point can decide for themselves if that's what they want and assuming the ability is there.

  3. It's official, college made the announcement over the weekend of my boys commitment to CMSV. You guys with young kids in ball,  can't even begin to explain the work it takes to get to this point, so proud of my boys love and dedication to a sport he adores.

  4. Dremel won't do the job, I sharpen my blades with a makita hand held grinder. Usually if the blade  are bent it will leave a round mark and dig into the dirt. I suspect the blades need sharpening. Could it be that your not overlaying your passes enough and your missing those few inches?

  5. I was on a roll so I kept going, finished up the 8 x 12 enclosed shed so I went to local Mill got another trailer load of wood and started on another project. Built a 8 x 12 fire wood shed, me and my 13 yr old son put that up in one day!!!  In 2 weekends we built  2 sheds. In one of the  pics . you can see both sheds next to each other.  Nice to have  my firewood all under one roof and not having to deal with tarps.

    Just curious why you did the back wall in metal. Looks good nice job

    That's actually a wall of an older shed that my dad built, the outside walls of that metal shed were also covered this weekend in board and batten to match the new addition. Half of that wall below is the new shed and the other half was the metal one.

    I know. we're on the same page. Just meant to state that many have no choice but to hunt public land. Hunting has always been the hobby of the common man, but it's increasingly becoming harder for many to afford and trending towards the european model even if that's not what the north american model wants. 

    It's all relevant to the times,  farmers got smarter and people continue to drive up the market. Its still the common man that I see hunting by me, they just have deeper pockets or have had these properties for quite some time. Lots of down staters like my self own a large portion of the private by me, but that has been the case for a very long time. Understandably if one can't afford private, we are fortunate enough to have a ton of public lands. I see some on here that do good if not better on public then those with private.

    How many of us can afford to buy "just hunting land" that they don't build a house on? Reasonable and affordable are not the same thing.

    I'm stating that there is hunting land to be had at reasonable prices assuming your in the market for just that and obviously assuming you can afford it. Its common sense to assume that if you don't have the extra disposable income to make that investment then it's a non issue.

    I like to think of it more as "passing the time". Us "bickering" doesn't hurt anyone either.

    I used to be this guy, then it was all gone in an instant. More people hunt public land than you might think and are impacted by this. If you weren't lucky enough to grow up with land or inherit it, you might be shocked what it costs just to get 5 or 10 acres. 

    If people are willing to travel a bit or maybe not and put in the time to research an area there is land to be had at reasonable prices, you might be shocked.

    How do you like the three burner? Seems like a bunch of space. Easy to transport?

    3 burner is great can cook up a bunch of food. More then enough space to cook up food for a family of six. Doesn't get moved at all, but should be able to move around relatively easily on the 4 wheels it has.

  11. I have never used metal brushes in my bores, just use patches with solvent /oil and the plastic patch holder. Never had rust in my bores but that would be the only time I would slide a metal brush down the bore. As you indicated, it was the brush that caused the black on the patches.
