I see that comedic irony is a bit much for this group. I'll stick to knock-knock jokes in the future. ;):D

I Bowhunt with a recurve and shoot instinctively. I don't use a sight to throw a baseball or football. I do those three well because I've done them all for a long time. Point shooting is no different, practice is the key to success. If you think about it objectively, the sights are just an...

That always struck me as strange too. Putting Bio-Degradable Poop into a Non Bio-degradeable bag? Most likely dreamed up by people that think all the animals in the wild hold hands, dance and sing "the Lion Sleeps tonight"

Thanks for posting this. Great collection you have! I grew-up reading Capstick, Hemingway, Raurk and dreaming of hunting in Africa. I bow hunted plains game there '01. On the top if my bucket list would be returning to bowhunt a "Duga Boy" I keep a pic of Fred Bear with his Buff in my Arrow...

After reading about the possible cloth bag bacteria issues. My 1st thought was"what are these people buying?". Then I thought anything is possible so maybe I should look. The wife observes the final inspection asking the obvious wife question, "what are you do now?" . When I told her 1st words...

I got this one. Here Waste Managementhas given us recycle containers so we can sort the ^#*^#!! trash for them so they can turn around and SELL the recycled glass & plastic. Yet we don't get a break on our collection charges. In my last job two customers were involved in that industry one...

I never liked plastic bags anyway. It took 6 plastic bags to carry what 3 papper bags can. My wife started using the cloth tote bags??? I must say I like them better than paper bags now. I'm the designated Mule and I can get a weeks grocery carried in with one trip (just the two of us). I...

It would be a camp gun/back-up, I'd be Bowhunting with a resident. Valid point about the S & S composite stock, fortunately Marlin offers that too. Most outfitters & guides and a few res. hunters have told me .45-70 is min. for big bears. When bow hunting Elk in Co, & Caribou in Quebec in...

I think we posted at the same time. Thank you for your comments.

Funny, three slips of Coffee after starting this thread I thought this will be all over the place :rolleyes:. My faith in Gun Forums replies remains in shattered. ;) I saw this as a Debate/Logic type issue. The issue in question is the actual Bullet and the fact that it was chosen based on...

Of course the 2nd part is up to the defense attorney. I think if you used the "state approved ammo" because it's less likely to over penetrate then there a positive for you based on safety. If one uses the same tooth brush the dentist uses there's no inference your a crack pot playing...

Chuck - Even the most aggressive Anti would not want to loss their 1st amid. rights. Jefferson offed that without the 2nd there would be no 1st. I honestly don't feel the objection is the ownership of forearms. I think the true objection is that othe media image of us. The stereo type is a...

I was hoping to avoid the typical discussions and focus more on the precise topic. Maybe this would have be more appropriate on a legal debate type forum? I do think it's a valid point to consider. Hopefully we'll get input from a few attorneys. Hopefully to get the train back on track this...

This is NOT a Hand load v. Box ammo thread. An interesting comment I heard on a YouTube SD ammo review. On the topic SD of ammo brands: Use the same brand your local LEOs use. The defense of choice would be the same responsible reasons that the LLE agency used in making their decision.. I...

Very good point! I do have a future need/want list and I've done my research already including range time with the help of friends. I stumbled on a possible(???) Alaskan Moose hunt this fall, I would buy a Marlin 1895GBL 45-70. I have to think most people also look forward and do some...
