Neck shots.
I wanted my kids to do neck shots when they were young so I didn't have to blood trail anything nor deal with the associated drama. I bought the Safari Press targets that show the animal on one side and the vitals with skeleton on the other. They couldn't consistently hit vertebrae. They also... -

Canadian Wild Hogs?
You don't want hogs. They ruin everything. All hands on deck and trap them, too.- howl

20 GA Over/Under- spend my money
Your budget affords Beretta. IF it fits, you can't go wrong. Browning will probably fit if it doesn't. Cheapskates should stick to Yildiz due to Briley handling warranty work. Shotgun fit makes a huge difference. If an O/U doesn't fit perfectly out if the box then it's more work and harder to... -

Snake gaiters or Regular gaiters in snake country
I once sat down in a turkey lounger, set my calls out and rested my gun across my knee only to look up and see a snek coming slithering off a limb down toward my face. I loaned the snake the chair. I already said if I know I won't be able to watch my step I wear chaps. If that were ever...- howl

You'd think letting self supplied chains build stations would drive prices down, but the two that...- howl

Snake gaiters or Regular gaiters in snake country
I have only been struck at twice in my life. Both times I wasn't even wearing shoes. There are lots of time when you're around snakes but you're doing something you wouldn't consider wearing snake chaps. I mean you might wear chaps hiking down to the swimming hole, but when you jump in the water...- howl

Guidance on choosing a new barrel or new rifle
Have you ever attained the level of accuracy you want from a rifle that weighs as little as that Savage? Kygunco has some crazy deals on Brownings these days. -

Turkey choke for Remington 1187 12 Ga.
Check your factory full first. If that doesn't sound right consider that 1.75oz of TSS #9s is about 580 pellets. Compare that to the same load of lead #5s having only 300. -

DNA kits?
This reminded me of a fella in high school who complained his father made him break up with, to never see again, a new girlfriend. He reported dumping her was awkward but drama-free because her mother had told her the same thing before he arrived at her house. I guess testing has some merit for...- howl

Insert Installation Tips?
The argument against hot melt is it's bad for carbon arrows. Sticks like Ferr-L-Tite don't require enough heat to be a problem.
