Re: Mark Twain national forest
Gar hole!! LOL! haven't heard that one for a while! Really public land isn't that hard to figure out, just go to where you see the least vehicles. Then walk and call until you cannot go any further or you find a bird. If you run out of ground and don't find a bird and are run over with other hunters...

Re: Tri star shot guns
I cannot speak for shooting TSS through one yet ,but I have one in 28 ga. that I love. I was hesitant about buying a Turkish made shotgun but am glad i did. I think they are a well made shotgun for the money. I don`t know about the 20 gauges but my 28 uses Berreta Mobil-choke and shoots directly to ...

Hey, at least you're not going to have to do satellite or dial-up :thumbup: This is true! Trust me, I`m not saying DSL is the end of the world!

Re: The High Cost Of Out Of State Hunting Licenses.
Paid $271.00 for TN last year without buying any public land stamps, MD is at $130.00. I did not hunt MD last year because of lack of time but will this year. Including WV I`ll be at about $500.00 this year. Really the license fees are the cheap part, Fuel , gear, food, drink, shelter, transportatio...

Re: Anybody use DSL ????
Thanks guys, it looks like I`m stuck in the contract so I guess I`ll find out for myself, but i did learn a lesson from this.
If the cable company tells you there is service at an address,, get them to put it in writing!
Oh well! I guess if its that bad I can just resell it or use it as a rental!

I know this is an odd subject for a hunting forum, but I`m in the process of buying a home that was supposed to have cable internet access. It would now appear that i cannot get cable there and am looking at DSL with a 3.7 mbps max speed. I just figured a lot of you guys on here lived in rural areas...

Re: What is it??
If you know a bit about WV history you might know that part of the Hatfield-McCoy feud involved some of these trees. If memory serves me correctly 3 of the McCoy boys were tied to them and shot after they stabbed and killed a member of the Hatfield family. They also have way too many seeds for my li...

Re: 28 ga. speed bird test.
Pretty scattergun you got there! I could see how that sliding breech could be fast on the dove field once you got the hang of it. Could also see a sore thumb and index finger on a fast day as well ! Wish i would have taken pics of my birds, by the time i remembered they were already butchered.

28 ga. speed bird test.
Got to test my new 28 gauge tristar viper g2 out on some little gray speed birds today. I was very impressed .I've always hunted dove with 12 gauge, but that little 28 with an improved modified sporting clays choke will flat out smash them at 35 with a 3/4 oz. load of 8s. I got an unofficial limit w...

Should have never got a 28!
I have decided that i should have never bought a 28 gauge! I`ve had it out twice now patterning and breaking clays and have to say I am hooked. Points great, shoots like a laser, patterns great, and kicks like a 5 pound mule with his legs tied to the ground! These things should be considered a contr...

Finally got a 28!!
I finally broke down and picked up a 28 ga. , It's a Tristar Viper G2 wood with a 26 inch barrel. Mostly got it for breaking clays and busting doves but i might have to try some TSS in it just to see. :D http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk148/madcatter77/Mobile%20Uploads/20160521_132215_zpsac963f3...
