  1. I'm a bit disappointed in the meat this year. 2.5 year old buck. Had the inside tenderloins tonight and they were like a regular cut of steak. On the grill 3 minutes each side. A bit tough but still good. Maybe I got back someone else's deer! lol Back to shooting young does and button bucks next year! lol
  2. and the Blowfish????
  3. Back in the day......OMG I'm dating myself, I went to this elderly gentlemen's house and listened to his deer hunting stories. After an hour and a half he gave us our certificate. I swear to this day I have done everything by the book and never shot anyone! lol This was 40 years ago life was just so much simpler then.
  4. Great article I really liked it. My daughters who have really never hunted ask me what it's like out there. I started them too late, theater soccer it all got in the way. One kid that came to the cabin at 14 is now hunting elk out west. I mentored him for two years. He shot his first deer on his first day of a deer hunt with a bow. He had come back for a few years and harvested a buck. Then went off to college. He will be back for a hunt I'm sure. I just love knowing he is doing more for our sport being 22 years old and hunting elk in the midwest. Sure I gave up stand time to be with him but it was all worth it in the end. I can honestly say that when I retire to my hunt camp in a few years I would hope to find a young hunter wanting to be mentored in the sport.
  5. This aggravates me to no end. I slow down to piss them off even further. Now to a little story. My Brother in law has a heart condition. We were talking about tailgating when he told me this. He is driving one day and started to have chest pains. Hospital was close so he drove right to it. Told me he must of pissed off a good many people driving up their ass so he could get there quickly. He then says if anyone is in a rush driving up his ass he pulls over and lets them go by. Made me think about the whole situation but...........you know the majority slept late and are rushing to work putting you in harms way!! lol
  6. I'm surprised it worked with one element gone bad. I have a Marathon hot water heater once one element goes bad the unit shuts down. Glad you fixed it, Have a nice shower!!
  7. I was at my property middle march. I found some sheds but also found rubs I didn't see at gun season. Some of them looked really fresh and had the bark at the bottom of the tree. Do you really think the deer were still rubbing Dec-Jan? I would of thought rabbits and mice would of eaten the bark?
  8. My 2007 Tahoe made it to 197,000 then needed a new motor. It sucked but I loved the truck and put in a Jasper refurbished motor. We now are at 227,000 and doing ok.
  9. Been banned in Suffolk county for a long time. You can still get them just have to pay 5 cents.
  10. Had one like that on my delivery truck. air was hissing out so what did I do?????? I screwed it in further and the air stopped! Got to a station and had it fixed!
  11. If I were to win this I would claim it under an LLC. Make all the people that I would give money to members. I believe this way you can avert the double tax on the money you give away. Too much money to personally claim it I think?
  12. Planted 300 White Spruce from Saratoga Nursery back in 2007. About 250 made it. We planted a small area of 11 trees. I let my daughter do that. We call it Michaela's forest. They are growing real nice! So is she 19 and in college!!! lol
  13. That's pretty cool. I live in Huntington and see them all the time by me. More wooded than the village.
  14. It was a good weekend. We ended up in second place. Let one slip by today up 1-0 through 3/4 of game and got called for a bad foul by the 18. They scored on the kick and then scored again with 5 minutes left. Virginia is in just about full bloom.
