    Foot odor

    Try that in your living room without even walking around and just see how hot your feet will get

    Acorns

    So you're advocating pressuring them?
  3. Here's a thought for you to ponder. That was never implied to whom you were describing. It was a general question. Also you stated "no" in reference to it being boring. So in originally disputing my initial comment you are now agreeing
  4. Did they quit because "the buck of their life time" experience was boring? How does one know they can't do better?
  5. I guess you're missing the point. How many people do you know that quit hunting for the specific reason of being bored with shooting big bucks?
  6. What's the reason you don't get that big buck every year you have pics of? Maybe it's a rarity. Even if you did isn't there always the possibility of something you've never seen walking by? Also what is the definition of a big? Isn't part of it the hope for something bigger next time? Not buying the reasoning one would quit was because of being bored with shooting big bucks.......it doesn't get old
  7. Huh? The seeking and chase are one in the same
  8. I just bought a Browning from Phade. Good price and sent quickly
  9. There's no absolute answer to that as every area is unique. The spot that's the hardest to approach without being seen or winded. Take into consideration the prevailing wind.
  10. That's because he's moving being small
  11. Maybe but I've never had any come running to me while shooting. Also when watching some and then shooting nearby I don't recall any being attracted by it
  12. They have a one week gun season
  13. I'll pass So far, the car has issues that would prevent it from driving in snow, ice or heavy rain. It’s unable to tell the color of traffic lights when sensors are blinded by sun or glare. Sensors detect objects as pixelated shapes, so hypothetically, the car would respond the same way – by swerving – to miss a child in the road, or a newspaper that was floating past. One of these problems Google faces is the adaptability of the mapping system. The maps used by these cars aren’t like those you see in your GPS unit or on Google Maps. Each map is highly detailed down to the height of the curbs, and the dimensions of the lane the car is currently traveling in. The problem with this level of detail is the enormity of mapping the entire country – or the world. Currently, Google has mapped approximately 2,000 miles of road for the driverless car to operate on. To give you an idea of scale, there are more than 170,000 miles of road in California alone, and over 4-million miles of public road in the United States. The reason the cars have performed so well in their initial 700,000 mile test is largely due to the fact that the cars get to “cheat” in the way in which they respond to their environment. That is to say, each car isn’t making decisions in real-time on how to respond to external stimuli, and Google hasn’t tested the car’s ability to respond to situations outside of these mapped environments. Of course, this is a problem that could – at some point – correct itself to an extent, as each Google Car on the road isn’t just driving, it’s also helping to create 3D maps for other autonomous cars by charting data.
  14. You really think it was staged and someone stood there purposely to get run over? I don't give a crap who the video was posted by http://time.com/money/3896931/volvo-self-parking-accident/
  15. Looks like they work great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EVrUmnv_fw
  16. I got a couple 200 acre parcels I hunt about 1mile apart and have seen the same bucks on both pieces
  17. http://ecosystems.psu.edu/research/projects/deer/news/2014/one-square-mile The rut makes November a different story. Buck home ranges explode and are nearly three times larger and average almost 3 square miles in size (3 sq. miles = 1,920 acres)! And 3 square miles is the average - one of our male had a home range of 4 square miles! So much for that 1-square-mile rule of thumb
  18. What is your recruitment strategy and how many do you annually get?
  19. You should put down the mouse and step away from the keyboard
  20. So you stated it was easier, but claim one of the reasons someone wouldn't is skill......I see
