I have a huge heart for pit bulls but enough is enough people need to stop trying to adopt dogs that are too far gone. And I am sure some will argue that any dog can be fixed, and I pretty much agree i just know that 99.9% of people do NOT have the time to train and work with them to make them good dogs. I have had a few over the years and they all turned out to be great dogs but it was constant work. Now that I am older and have real life things to deal with, training a rescue is just out of the cards, it just is too demanding its sad but a lot of the dogs should be put down not put in homes. I feel bad for you dog, and hopefully she is not scared, I had a big pit grab my little lap dog luckily my girl grabbed our dog before the pit bit her... she was a little "off" for a few weeks but then went back to normal. I hope the same for your dog.

Proficiency - How good do you think you are?
Carbonelement replied to RoadKill44's topic in General Chit Chat
i would bring my bow to the bow shop if I shot 5 arrows and there was a 6 inch grouping at anything under 45 yards. I expect the arrows to be touching at that distance and if not i would think there was a major issue. It blows my mind that someone thinks if they can hit a pie plate they are ready for the woods. I see it in archery shops all the time people "sighting in" with 5-8 inch groups and thinking all is well. At 20 yards (most indoor ranges) the shots should be touching fletchings no ifs ands or butts! I could see if it was user error on one out of 10 shots. but if all the other shots are not that close I believe the person has no business in the woods. -
that is 100% a cherry tree... just so you know

biz hate to call you out, but what do you do that is so stimulating to the brain? I bet that dumb garbage man has quite a bit more brain stimulation that one may think... lets face it he is the laborer, marketer, runs the books and has to balance the budget. much harder then showing up to work for a company IMO. and not to mention he has to have at least 100K in equipment. I will say this we are all peasants, just grinding away. being part of the ultra wealth of the USA is 100% out of reach for anyone on this forum and anyone not born into it. The people on top like to stir the pot and have all us poor people thinking this job gets paid too much that job is menial and they make too much, meanwhile Hillary gets paid 600k for a speech? go figure

this show gets worse and worse each year...i will probably go just cuz and help a few buddies at their booths but god that place gets old quick.

thats what happens when you get mouthy...and put your hands on someone. A buddy of mine 6'3" about 280... was mouthing this little guy in a bar and the kid told him he was going to die that night...everyone laughed. He was walking to his car and that little kid ran up on him and literally gutted him and sliced a major artery coming off his heart. He was a decorated green beret and had a nice k-bar with him. My buddy lived but spent a lot of time in the hospital. you just never know. Look at the guys in the UFC, some of them are walking the street at 150 lbs and would kick the shit out of anyone we all know. The top military in this country is trained by professional fighters around the world. Its always the little guy who is quiet but not backing down you must watch out for... a big dopy meathead is just that and will get smack up 99% of the time.

also here is a tip for any of you salt water guys.... i bring a lot of bunker and bluefish on offshore trips and if you fill the cooler with half ice and some sea water and use baking soda and sea salt they will tighten up and stay fresh for over a week. I have done week long tilefish trips and keeping the bait in this solution will guarantee you fresh bait the whole time, the leftovers I dumped were in better condition then most peoples bait on the first day
-
what kind of fishing trip are you going on? I have done many multi day and up to 7 day trips in the middle of the sumer and had no problems keep fish fresh in ice. Commercial guys keep fish for weeks on ice. Also if you put the fish in a cold brine it will last many days. Just fill a cooler with ice and dump a box of salt in and it will be fine. A yeti is a good option if you can buy one or barrow one. I never understood guys who spend thousands on fare/rods/reels/tackle and bring a cheap broken down igloo to keep the fish in?!?!?!? Makes no sense to me. Best thing to do is gut and gill and pack the fish and make sure the water can drain. just put a couple 2x4s in the bottom of the cooler and pack the fish on top of that.

domestic puppies and older dogs are more susceptible to e coli, and its not much to worry about. Do some research and many vets will agree that raw diet is king. And freezing the food greatly reduces the chances of a lot of bacterial infections. to each is own i guess, but i would rather give my dog raw then 90 percent of the food that is available
-
i would love to hear why the wife disagrees Edit* and when you feed raw, you must include organs and bones... chicken bones are very good for dogs, they are not as strong as other weight holding bones such as legs from beef/deer.
-
raw diet is by far the best thing for a dog. as for kibble there are a few really good ones like buffalo, holistic, some of the merrick and others. there is plenty of info out there on what breeds should be eating what. I looked into this with my last puppy and was shocked with how much garbage is in most dog foods. Anything you can buy at a grocery store is almost guaranteed crap.

stick with it, and spend some "extra" time looking for another piece. Could not hurt to have more places

I Think I "Want" a Bigger Hammer!

Super bowl : post your rants and raves here
Carbonelement replied to turkeyfeathers's topic in General Chit Chat
beyonces performance was a joke... Next year Id like to see dancers in 3 Ks. Could you imagine the uproar!!! -
i read a study that was done by some hospital where they basically said any person that got shot once had like a 90% survival rate and any person shot twice had abt the same % death rate. I would have said carry the 9 because it has more "balls" but after that I say carry what ever you can snap 2 quick rounds off and keep close together. I have a few 9s that make awesome carry guns in the summer but being that they are small they are not very accurate. But hey most self defense scenarios are within like 12 ft so i'm sure anything will do the trick as long as it goes "bang"

if the buck of a lifetime grew that big in the area, to me it is 100% proof that it is possible, and if one did it another sure can. believe me i would not be able to pass up a "Giant" in my area id def shoot it if it was considered a good buck. but i know I am killing my chances for it to be a beast. I hunt Southern Illinois and there is a group of guys who consistently kill 180+ class deer, and they consistently pass 160s and 170s. One thing is for sure a deer stops growing as soon as it is dead.... 100%! cannot be argued. so if you want to shoot the buck of a lifetime pass on anything that isnt. (easier said then done!!!!) I would never stop hunting no matter what I killed in the past.

congrats on the kill

They say its the "Religion of Peace"...
Carbonelement replied to burmjohn's topic in General Chit Chat
it was religious until his comment but ppl will cry that they dont want to read and it will be moved! -
stick to something with thicker bark stay away from birch and beech trees, and just make sure you dig the climber in. I like to jump on the edge lightly to really make sure its dug. Be careful with the ash trees this time of year, if you dont remember seeing many leaves dont climb it. when the ashes die from borer insects the bark tends to peel right off. it can get slippery!

its very funny to see how jealous hunters are!!! stick to shooting dinks and not calling everyone out, if you spent more time hunting and less time playing internet cop you would have more then a 60 inch dink and fork horns on your wall. Give up the office job and put the green jump suit on, if not shut up and hunt. You are the most winy person on here always looking for excuses why you cant kill a deer. I dont want to shoot vertical... no deer in my area... paid 5 grand and it was bad weather... id rather shoot a coyote... just admit the deer hunting thing isnt your gig and take up golf! Great deer, congrats to the hunter!

just go...rain is great, wind may slow them down but i doubt it during the rut. Biggest deer i have ever seen in NY was in 40 mph winds in the middle of the rut. dogging a doe
