Toot toot State Farm is there..................

I'm far from a contractor but I'm purrrrdy darn sure I could level it................

HH was quite the stud........

Yea, if they get soaked completely through and lay flat the may not shoot for beans but I guess I usually hit the bricks by then.

I don't remember doing much with my feathers when shooting them. I can't remember but I think even when I went back to shooting the compound after about 11-12 years with the traditional bows I think I shot feathers for a couple years. I was using a plunger rest (Hoyt) at first with the Darton Maverick then switched to the whisper biscuit and Blazers after a few years. Even when my feathers were a bit wet, they seemed to still shoot fine at the distances I was killing deer at............

Similar to the scene from Blazing Saddles where the posse got stopped at the toll both. They had to send one of the guys back for a "shit load of dimes". One of the greatest lines from a movie, EVER.

Any update on this mildly scientific experiment??

You take a guy's stand and he KNOWS you took it, he's liable to maybe screw with one of your stands. How? Well how about cut half way through a chain link, loosen a bolt, drill out the hole where you've screwed in a step etc. I'd pass on taking the stand but a note attached to the stand on the ground is fine. Calling Johnny Law is the very next step......

I'd drink to that but I'm in the rack already. Tomorrow I'll hoist a belated shot of a special honey bourbon in your honor. Happy Birthday!

Oh the high school days.............oh my!! Matt, are those Bastad Clogs in the engraving in the last picture? Heck, maybe you're not old enough to remember them??

Great, now you're probably going to tell me there's no such thing as the Easter Bunny or Tooth Fairy. I ain't buying it......................

At this point I'm not going to do that as I'll need a 2 wheeler to get it up the basement stairs. One package would kill me............. You could be right though on the grinder just pushing it through. I have sharpened the blade before and it did seem to help. The new grinder should hopefully eliminate these issues when I have the first one to run through it. I hope I can run it through the small plate one time, we'll see.

I've aged many deer but don't anymore. 2+ weeks is just fine IF IF IF you can control the temps. I can't so I don't........... Just to give you an idea of some of the things I've done with aging, how about aging ringneck's in the fridge for two weeks.......un-gutted. Years ago in Europe they'd hang them until the body fell away from the head. I've butchered older deer and don't remember chewy like this. I doubt I have your experience with deer hunting and butchering but I'd guess I've probably butchered 125+ at this point and just don't recall the ground this chewy. Not a big deal at all, just thought I'd give the members here something to chew on..........

Jeeeezzzzzz...........DON'T BREAK THEM RACKS BOYZZZZZZZZ.

Don't give up on him yet..........

Just make sure it isn't a counterfeit.........seems to me I've seen some people make mention that eBay has had some listed in the past couple years. Other than that, I'm 110% in agreement.

Glad all is good in your preseason prep! Other than a pulled muscle in my back from lifting the heavy end of a water soaked log on Sunday and a problem with my neck that I also think (and hope) is a pulled muscle that happened a few weeks ago things are great..........

Last year's archery buck was a big SOB.......dressed at 204 lbs. Funny thing, the ground has been very chewy. Each package from that deer is dated 11/10/2015 as all my meat is dated the day its processed by me. I killed the buck 11/7/2015 so it only hung for a few days. We (my wife) has treated it the same as any other deer but each time we make something with the ground;meat sauce for spaghetti, stuffed peppers, chili, tacos etc all come out with some chewy chunks every third or fourth bite. Some we had to spit out (give to the dog) but half again as many you are able to choke down after a few extra chews. I've killed more than a couple of these big hogs and never had one as chewy. One thing that I should point out is that this past winter I bought a 3/4hp Cabela's grinder to utilize the smaller holed plate and get smaller grind as my old grinder struggled with the meat sometimes. We don't have much of this ground (or any other) and my wife sure won't be sad to see the last package used up! Thoughts or similar stories??

Depends on my work schedule and weather but probably yes, I will cork one. Lord knows that if I wait, they won't show up. In my opinion, an adult doe is harder to kill than a doe fawn, button buck or an adult buck.

Monica's Pie?

Still available.

I had one from TS for a number of years, sold it when I sold the 'wheeler. It was a pretty good value, I'd buy another if I had the need. I bought mine in 1999 and it was the same brand; they're still selling them all these years later. Take it for what it's worth..........

That looks darn good!

Dang, that isn't what I wanted to hear.

Brand New, never used.......... http://www.cabelas.com/product/Mojo-Outdoors-trade-Super-Mojo-Mallard-Decoy-Drake/728118.uts?productVariantId=1400014&WT.tsrc=PPC&WT.mc_id=GoogleProductAds&WT.z_mc_id1=02635663&rid=20&gclid=CKK7wovqps8CFVRbhgod4GAMjA&gclsrc=aw.ds It's still in the wrapper, my friend never used it. He's had it for probably 10 years so there's no guarantee on the battery. (although it's still in the sealed shipping wrap) Totally UN-used condition............... I'd rather not ship it but will if you wanna split the USPS Priority Mail Shipping. $85.00 PS....I can take pics if needed.
