I have not been able to figure out how to make grilled octopus right in ver a decade. Had it multiple times in Greece and fell in love with it. Never had it anywhere near as good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Now we just need this fricking Corona shit to end so we can go spend our kids inherences while we are able!!

I don't mind a few dumps. It makes for some good buys! If I was 60 plus it might make my heart flutter more lol.

It was a great year, my Etrade account did 41% MY 401k only did like 25% but that is pretty tame

Yea market may go up and down for a few days/weeks but it will ride out. It might be time to change sectors a bit. I feel Big Tech may not be so shiny. It will take close to a year till any real big policy effects take a foothold. With the way the world is right now, booze, bullets and beef are the only necessities!! JK Big Pharma, Pot, Financial institutions are prolly solid...

/\ Good advice there. /\ Don't put things off for down the road if you can figure out a way to do it now. Sometimes you just need to be creative. Kinda like Phades' economy tent set up in another thread. If I have learned one thing, and being diagnosed with cancer in my 30's and surviving, is you never know how long you are able. I am surely saving for retirement but I am making sure I give myself some rewards along the way.

I have a cousin who with some buddies have gone out west on DIY elk/muley hunts a couple years. It can be a tough trip. It all comes down to your expectations and how you want to do it and what you want to spend. If you want to do public land DIY you can be successful but it takes some doing. It takes time to learn the land, it takes time to learn elk. Scouting improves your odds so does being in good shape, having local knowledge of herd behavior and realistic expectations. They did a lot of hiking. The first year from them was a complete learning experience and nothing taken, the second year they saw more, hunted better and got a couple smaller mulies and a cow elk. They base camped at a hotel and drove and hiked in/out every day. They did say the best decision they made was having a preplanned local with pack team to call when they downed the cow. Helped cut up and packed it right to the butcher. The other route is guided either partially or fully. Which is your basically paying more for that scouting, gear, knowledge that otherwise takes you years to learn. As well as Room and board if you go that route. Lots of options, I've tossed around going out but I feel I may like the Rockies so much I don't return lol!

Well done. Someone brought up coffee. I may put a tea bag or two in may safe kit. I think just the warm hot tea/coffee gives a calming help too. Chocolate covered expresso beans sound like a good pocket item too! You said you would bring more garbage bags next time. You had 2, can I ask what the uses would be? To sleep on? As you say they take up no space. I'm almost intrigued to try this, almost. Can I stash a 6'er of beer and claim I found it??

I like it, while I have never done this winter style. As long as I had my big woods safe kit I should live lol. I am sure a couple trial runs would improve the kit and life expectancy times over though. Throw in a couple gallon bags. One concern is if you get water in your boots and can't dry your boots, you have spare socks but they would get wet as soon as you put them in the boots. Not a perfect solution as your feet sweat but would help I would think. One thing I will do starting next season from this years experience. I always keep a spare pair of gloves in the bottom of my pack. I got wet a few times and got lazy and did not pull everything out to check. The one day I needed them and pulled them out they were wet. I will vacuum seal them going forward. Maybe put socks in there too. Vacuum sealing will make it smaller and quieter as well.

I think the last time I bought 9mm it was around 20 cents a round a couple years back. I have a bunch but since I just picked up a new 9mm I will want to be shooting it. I hate to even think what they want for it now if you can find it!!

Yea I have no mess either. It is just a touch on the threads. If the gun is fired it takes me less than 5 minutes to clean the whole gun, plug include.

I think my order will be Texas Hots Maple Blueberry Breakfast Roasted Red Pepper and Motza Pepperoni Bologna 1 each

I tend to see about 38-40% good meat yield. So 38-40 pounds for a healthy 100 pound deer with no shot damage. Sometimes you lose some meat when you think the shot is perfect. Sometimes bullets fragment. Also I've had bow shot ones bleed into a quarter when the bow shot was not directly in the quarter. Most likely due to what blood vessels it hit and how it was laying before recovery or hung up? Also the weapon, bullet type can make a big difference. No need to be using a 300 win mag with explosive tips to kill a 150 pound animal!! I have a good butcher and if I lose some meat they make notes on the paperwork and let me know exactly why.

Ok i need some reviews I've had the Blueberry, Reuben, Texas Hots, sticks. Anyone have their Bologna? Pepperoni? Kielbasa? What's your favorite?

It would seem the teflon would break down and get jammed up in the threads. Thus more of a pain to clean. I have not used in this application just basing it off what I see on my pool connections with teflon.

I may be asking you for some input! I love a good mix where it is not all hit the same time.
