Rap ..... Can't really get into it. Basically, I call it "chanting" rather than music.... lol. however it has even crept into country music now.
and successfully destroyed it............

here's some reviews that are on Amazon.

You just cannot cook a bird while it's alive.Pigeon breasts taste very good
one that you found and had no idea when or how it died?.........I would hope not.
-
maybe I'm missing something, but why would anyone play with dead birds?

Pellet's my friends 40lbs per day =less than $4.00 for the entire day's heat
yeah, as soon as my woodstove needs replacement that's the route I'm going.....almost made the jump this year, but as long as I don't mind lugging the wood and the stove is good, I'm gonna stick with it.

Ran out of last years left overs and another cord i got in January. I get jeeploads on weekends from my BIL. Its a PIA. This summer I'm ordering 3 cords.
order early, green wood is usually a lot cheaper....or better yet, get a hold of a local tree company willing to drop off unsplit logs from local jobs, I did that last year and was getting it for $50 a cord dropped off.
-
you really can't blame a guy for trying............best part is, the add will probably wind up getting answered by a few.

I remember them all...
Our outhouse only had two holes...One bigger than the other. Perhaps it wasn't "state of the art"...
I assume that the purpose for three holes was so that the PILE didn't get too big under any given hole.
was the smaller hole cut into the side of the outhouse?

The snow actually is what kills them. When they fall off a deer and drop on the snow, they usually die.
that's a new one, so after this year there should be none left.......good to know.
-
I went out with every intention of buying a Stoeger at one point........then I went around and handled them side by side with a bunch of others, needless to say I didn't buy one.
-
There is an easy way - sharpshooters, birth control, etc.
both been done down here this past year........and the people doing the sterilizing were pretty much as effective as the sharpshooters in the amount of deer they were able to get, If it turns out to be successful, I'm sure there will be more to come.

Access is the main reason we cant get it done Steve just like you said and like i said before i know this is natures way of thinning the heard and i am fine with that. Get me into some private spots that are loaded with deer and i will gladly do my part and shoot as many as the land owner would like. But im not going to do it in the areas that i do hunt where the problem doesn't exist.
John
exactly, it really falls on the hunters to adapt to the areas they are hunting and adjust what they kill accordingly.....you really can't apply a blanket harvest agenda in all areas.

This is just natures way of thinning out the heard. Personally if i'm hunting and have a 25-30lb fawn come by i would not think about shooting it. How much meat are you really going to get off of one of those? 6 or 7 lbs if that? The adult deer are doing just fine down here haven't came across one that has died yet from winter kill and have put on a lot of miles already this winter. These guys that are out there shooting 10-15 does really think they are going to stop this from happening and they are not. Do i agree with thinning the heard yes but no matter how much you thin there will always be fawns that wont make it when we have winters like this where there is a hard snowpack and the deer cant get through the snow to the food below for a long period of time.
John
when I spoke with the Biologist, he more or less said that they were more concerned with the destruction caused by over browsing in some areas and not so much about the deer not making it through the winter......
-
Don't think I would want to shoot a fawn with spots , let alone use a tag on one.
I'd rather have tag soup.
I've never seen one with spots while hunting, and we get another tag when you check one in, so it's not a loss of a tag.

Textbook scenario where doe fawns and bb fawns should be targeted during hunting season. I am sure more than one hunter passed them this season in LI. Now look.
not me, I figured two or three little ones add up to one bigger one when ground up into chopmeat..............I'm well aware why they keep handing out antlerless deer tags down here, and am happy to do my part.
-
Do tick numbers take a hit from cold weather?
I don't believe it kills them......they may slow down, but a warming period in January or February will get them active again.
-
I've seen fawns being checked in out in Montauk druing the January season that weighed less than 30 pounds, they didn't even appear to have fully developed winter coats......I can't imagine a deer that small could survive some of the brutal cold we've had out here the last few weeks, not to mention that some places out there have terrible food supplies even when there is no snow cover.

We're not talking about the whole world outside of the hunting community. We're talking about the world of firearms collectors. I can assure you, they know about every famous person that ever owned a firearm.
Did you know Mel Torme had a million dollar firearm collection?
I do now, but was the value inflated because of his name or because that's what it was worth?.......but I think Rinella has a ways to go before he joins the company of some very well known............Hemingway's Westley Richards double rifle was only valued at about $80,000.00, but sold at auction for $295,000.00.
-
Not at all. Just trying to inform the haters and doubters, who seem to have something against someone who may just be the best ambassador for hunting our sport will see in this century.
Or maybe they're just jealous it won't be Ted Nugent.
Rinella is far from a nobody..and I personally wouldn't use that term for anyone else in the hunting industry that has made a name for themselves. I just don't see the world outside of the hunting community seeing a huge value on anything they may have owned or even knowing who they are.

Come on.......Name me ONE TV hunter/personality that has made it big whose gun might be worth something.....??
Who's the biggest name in tv personalities now, hunting wise, Shockey? WTF do you think his gun might be worth? NOTHING.......Jim Shockey was famous long before he was a TV stud. He was a pretty darn good writer long before he was on TV.
Michael Waddell? Not many that probably make what he does finacially but WTF do you think one of his guns will be worth someday? NOTHING...........
They are nobodies.........
yeah, it's a pretty small community of people who think that "hunting celebrities" are really that important....in the outside world something they owned is not worth more than it's value as it stands alone. But, if you took a gun owned by Ernest Hemingway, John Wayne and the likes,there is no doubt that a name like that attached to it would bring in big dollars.

they really don't look that emaciated.....wonder if they froze with some of the brutal cold we've been having.

where were those found?

I took the picture with Mike Iaconelli at the Suffern show in 2013. I am willing to print a hard copy and ill autograph it and ship it for $75. I will only sell 10,000 copies. Who wants a copy?

I don't even know who that is........

There is the possibility that you could find a double that shoots regular slugs accurately......I imagine that's what was used for years before rifled barrels and sabot slugs were introduced.
