Re: Compact guns

They used to call them youth guns but now it's more fashionable to call them "compact" so grown men feel better about choosing them,one given to me and one that I'd bought the kids. :) I shoot one part of the time. The short barrel is great but I replaced the stock with a standard length ...

I didn't know which night it came out. I probably won't watch it until later in the week.

Re: Shogun

I watched the second on Friday night with Boyd and Isaac and we all agreed that it was better than the first and made the show better. They aren't wild about the subtitles but like the story so far.

Seeley Swan

I had to drive to Kalispell up the Seeley - Swan a week or so ago after a snowfall. It's a really nice drive if you like trees and snow. A couple nice mountain ranges to see also but it was too cloudy to see them well. It's not much for turkeys but you really have to watch out for whitetails. I saw ...

Re: Welcomed another one into my home today. Remington 1100 20ga youth NWTF 25th Anniversary gun.

I ran across a used 1100 20 gauge lightweight yesterday. It was blued and shiny so not really a turkey gun. I'm not sure how old. I was surprised how heavy it was for a "lightweight" and the stock was a straight stock that I don't recall ever seeing on an 1100. I was also shocked at the pr...

Pretty good if you ask me
I'm planning to give it a try but needed to watch it last night on FX since I'm out of town. I forgot to watch it so will check it out on Hulu when I get back home.

Re: Aging gobblers via roost bone

The best way to age a gobbler is by using the following mathematical model--- length of snood x circumference of skull at the eyes x combined length of spurs squared x the weight - beard length divided by the miles driven to the hunt location x hours of sleep the previous night + number pf beers co...

Re: So many jakes

I have seen large groups of jakes chase a gobbler on more than one occasion. I watched 5 or 6 chase a gobbler in circles last year. The gobbler was trying to stay close to a lone hen but was doing circles trying to avoid the jakes on him. The hen ignored them all and they all ignored me. I would gue...

You couldn't pay me enough to cut down a sweet 16, but you didn't ask that. I would definitely find a second barrel and keep the original.

Re: Who’s going to Fla early?

I'd like to be heading that way but would probably skip the opener. Openers are filled with too many yahoos but maybe every day in Florida is.

Regardless, I won't be there but really hope I make it back sometime.

Does he have a website? I found some on YouTube that didn't sound bad, but I can't listen to the whole video. Its unlikely that I'd give $75 but I'm not much of a collector.

Great spurs. I must be in the dark on the subject because I can't recall the term "roost bone" being used.
