  1. Ya that double X can be hard to figure out , so I don’t bother . If things get desperate I’ll try bait plots and cell cams .
  2. Inflation is a regressive tax, hurts the low earners the most. Young people starting out and older retirees on fixed incomes ,for example . Our daughter is a nurse her husband is in the skilled trades ( union guy ) it’s a struggle to replace his car right now even with two decent incomes . Fortunately he has a work truck and gas card . Food , gas, home heating is taking a larger portion of the budget and increasing monthly ,they put off home improvements to focus on saving for a used car . Our kids never had an issue buying a solid used car, two year old Civic , the sporty model low miles was 16k when our daughter bought it a three years back . A relative just bought a TEN YEAR OLD Camry for 15k !!! and that was after an exhaustive search , contrast that with the one year old Corolla SE our other daughter paid 17k for ,before we built back better .
  3. Ya getting the burner set right to maintain the correct pressure , and monitoring it is easy yet a pain at the same time .
  4. Thank you for making and posting the videos ! Enjoy your camp ,and I hope ya shoot a nice deer .
  5. Do YOU need any specific ammo ? I may go,out to my place today and see what they got . Getting a specific brand and grain can be problematic though ,so,keep,that in mind . I offered to get ammo for a guy at the gym , he said “30.06, Remington Cor lok 168 gr” I said ok maybe I can get some 30.06 ….. they got tons of ammo but not every configuration at all times . Hunting ammo at this time flys off the shelf .
  6. Ok today we’re going to can 10 quarts of chicken soup , the online info is all over the place . Some raw pack , others say to cook the soup, then can it , that seems redundant,I mean when I can just chicken meat I raw pack it , so why cook it first when using it in soup ? Thoughts and experiences appreciated. We may do a batch of each just to see .
  7. It’s a pain , if you shoot a field point into the ground you’ll hit a rock at some point. There are plastic disposable bolts you can launch into where ever, they’re like a buck or two each . I bring an old Block and shoot a FP into it .
  8. I haven’t seen a doe yet this year , 3 sits ,maybe 4 idk for sure . I did find some decent sea glass the last two days, that’s hunting to !
  9. I just sit in a tree . Never even thought about barometric pressure and frankly wouldn’t understand it . I barley pay attention to the wind , thermals I do wear them when it’s cold .
  10. My buddy joe has had multiple bucks in good light every afternoon sit over the last week or so including the big moon thing . Always lacking one more step , bad angles , noisy stand etc. it’s nuts what he’s been seeing . good luck .
  11. 40 minutes Webster to Canandaigua ,is a pain after a few hunts . I envy the locals that walk into their homes by the time I walked to the truck .
  12. Shoulder issues pushed me into buying one and I was grateful, but I enjoyed my compound more , so the following year I bought a compound I could draw . Fast forward a couple more years and drawing issues again , resting , popping ibuprofen and the pain is gone ,we’ll see on drawing in stand this sat . Its great knowing I have a back up plan even if it’s weeks away , enjoy !
  13. So TF also shut his alarm off today , that confirms my choice as correct . Ill be out 2x this weekend , each with a guest , one , some doe killer from downstate and my cop neighbor who’s never hunted before, although he’s shot tons of them . The beauty is neither knows which stands produce and which don’t, and I get help dragging mine !
  14. I’ll add a pic in a bit . Myself I cube it , opps chunk it up,into idk 1x1 inch pieces . Once you open the jar it’s pretty tender, still in chunks but chews easily . I would say it comes out like little pieces of pot roast meat pretty much . Great for stroganoff, casseroles ,tacos , can’t recall if she used it in soup yet . looking at it in the jar ,well tastes better then it looks in the jar

  16. That’s ok , it’s actually in jars… canning is the process. I bought another 20 pounds of chicken yesterday, @ , $1.69 a pound ,today I’ll break it down to small batches and vacuum pack it , already have 30 pounds canned in quart jars. Tomorrow we’re going to make and “can “ 8 quarts of chicken soup ,I’ll use some of the frozen chicken we already have . ( fifo ) Later on we’ll make and can chili , and once I shoot a large bodied buck, ill can 30 pounds of him , toughest cuts become tender and taste great . Other Pluses are, no freezer needed , keeps longer then frozen meat , no thawing needed for quick meals . You can also add favoring and spices right to the jars for a variety of different tastes. your mistake is categorizing it with spam , which fried over a campfire is pretty good though …
  17. Never had many spiders, I think the mice keep them away . They contain your scent and movement , dry and warm is a plus . One of mine you can only see and shoot in one direction anyways ,so you loose nothing sight wise , the other overlooks where a sanctuary boarders a field , about our hottest spot , I don’t really care about seeing behind me to much . i shut the alarm off today not feeling it , I’ll be out this weekend .
  18. If freaks means lower inflation , lower crime rates ,energy independence , fewer illegals crossing the boarder , less drugs crossing over , a fat 401k and no new wars , well get your freak on ! Being slow walked into WWIII and nuclear Armageddon as our Pres says , not so much .
  19. They’re nice ( I have two ) but I a seldom use them ,mostly with my daughter as she gets cold . It also allows me to watch , as she isn’t always focused on the land , more the phone . I share that one with the guy behind the land as well . Good luck today fellas ,I’m running errands and going to a park with the Mrs
  20. This is how it’s done ! Stucco sides ,tin roof ,swing down windows bolted to a trailer .
  21. They always post the gun and ammo they take off criminals here . It’s always a miss mass of hard ball, like they get a couple rounds here and there . This guy has what looks like a Critical Defense HP in the pipe , some hardball, and those with the groves are Ruger APX which is a good round , this is probably the best ammo I’ve seen in a pic.
  22. Dicks Webster, it’s behind gun counter , the first responder military place i go it’s behind a counter as well , last I heard ( like a month ago ) Sportsman warehouse had it roped off and an employee gets it for you . Local gun shop I went to , to have him remove a screw I screwed up,it was behind a counter . I’m not aware of any local place where you can go grab it yourself,but then I just shop for ammo at one ,if I’m in another store I may look out of curiosity.
  23. Attn Rochester area . Good inflation beater price on chicken , I’m grabbing 20 pounds maybe 30 not sure , I’ll can some and vacuum pack some .
