So, I just picked up a Bushnell Essential E2 camera. I'm trying to figure out the best / easiest way to view pics while at my cabin in the woods... won't have a computer or laptop there. My son-in-law gave me an SDHC micro card with adapter that would apparently fit into my wife's digital camera. Is that ok to use? The second option would be to take an iPad with SD adapter and view the pics on it. Wouldn't that be a better option? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Tis over... Stenson won... he was hotter than a firecracker. Shot a 63 final round to lefty's 65. Was a battle to the end.

Interesting concept.

I have and carry (often) a Ruger SP101. It is a tank and .357 mag will do the trick... I assume.

I have a LNIB Nightforce ATACR 4-16 X 42 F1 first focal plane scope for sale. This has a 34 mm main tube with mil / mil turrets and a Mil R reticle. This scope has an astonishing 26 mils of internal elevation and 18 mils of windage. It has red / green illumination with the PTL and zero hold. Included are a set of 34mm Seekins Precision low rings. The "new" price for this set-up is $2470.00. I will sell for $1950.00. This is a long range instrument... I'm only selling because I lost my only long range shooting area, as it has been sold. No practice does not go well with long range precision work.

Welcome... I'm new here also!

Good grief. I bet the white won't be white for long!!! LOL.

Most "packages" I've seen on hunting stuff aren't that great... IMO.

I did not pay a grand for it... but it wasn't cheap either. I get what I want... even if I have to save up a long time. If it turns out to be not what I wanted (or thought it would be) I sell it and try something different. That's been my mode of operation for many years. To each his own my friend.

Scorpyd's are nice. If ya got the cash and desire, go for it.

Lucky for him... I guess.

Dad ought to be happy with that! I know I would. Congrats and well done Sir!

I've been looking for something a bit different than run of the mill stuff. It had to be EASY to hang as I'm about done with fighting (while up a tree) stubborn stands. I stumbled across one and ended up purchasing it for a trial. It's from Advanced Treestands and comes as three pieces... a stem hangs to the tree, then the platform attaches, then the seat. It's an engineering marvel to be sure. Very well thought out. Likes are: easy to hang, stackable and packable, very secure, cast aluminum platform (which I like), good camo, less likely to get stolen based on internal ratchet system and the fact that you can remove the seat and/or platform and take them out with you if you so desire, you can purchase additional stems for other trees, two strap security, comfortable, and all my pre-purchase questions were handled well. I took the plunge. Dislikes: made in China, a bit pricey Perhaps some other folks on here may wish to investigate this new stand. I only posted this as info... I'm in no way affiliated with this company.

If a person has the cash and desire, how about a Reconyx HC600 (no video tho, pics only)?

Just picked up a new sight for my CAMX crossbow... a Tjijicon ACOG XB. The supplied sight was ok, but this is awesome. (It should be though as it costs a lot but I did get it at a reduced price). I always gravitate to top shelf stuff even if I have to save up for months to get it. With advancing age, my eyesight has declined. This will remedy that to be sure. Highly recommended if you have the inclination and coin.

Me too laketrout. My old stomping' grounds. Tis' a small world!

In addition to the above recommendations, I'd apply granular Imidacloprid (Merit, trade name) to the soil around the base. Add some fertilizer also to aid in pick-up by the plant.

Wow, that's a great NY bear! Congrats.

Gorgeous BW you got there. Good luck.

I have floaters for many years. NBD. What really chaps me (though) is tinnitus. Now that's troublesome.

Thanks for the welcome everybody!

That would be interesting. Wish I could attend.

Great rifle, great shooting. Looks like a winning combination. Congrats.

Ah, ex-wives... everybody needs at least one. I'm not getting much regarding the names. Not sure about Rick Allison. The name Bob Losey sounds a bit familiar. I left the area and moved south in 1976... been a long time! LOL

I've had a Yamaha Grizzly for about 8 years. It's been great.
