Suffice it to say that had I been hunting with a .416 Weatherby Magnum instead of my Phoenix, there would now be a great gaping hole in the side of my blind instead of a small, V-shaped chip in the window sill. For those of you who care to go back to the original message, take a look at the second p...

Anyone care to hazard a guess what this is? http://i356.photobucket.com/albums/oo3/Savagevervet/Windowsill2.jpg Here's another hint: http://i356.photobucket.com/albums/oo3/Savagevervet/Windowsill.jpg Need I say more? Need I utter another syllable???!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil...

I admit this is a really strange question, but does estrous doe urine ever go bad? When I tore the packaging off the bottle I bought last year it didn't occur to me to look for a "Best if used by..." date (or as the Budweiser brewery in St. Louis is fond of doing, stamping a "Born on&...

Fogducker - It looks like you've got that baby carpeted with a remnant of 1970s-era green and brown shag. :shock: I bet there's a rotating glitter ball and hidden speakers pumping out disco, too. And did I see the telltale corner of a "Saturday Night Fever" poster taped up inside??? That's...

Xhunter - I've spent many a long, frozen hour in the duck blind and nothing sours a hunt faster than being miserable out there. Being miserable usually translates into being fidgety, and being fidgety is not compatible with deer hunting where stillness, silence and patience are the keys to success. ...

Howdy, all! I was wondering if anyone on the forum has any experience still hunting for whitetails and, if so, whether they can recommend a specific model/brand of boots they like. The territory that I hunt in Southwest Missouri is a mix of woodland forest and open plains. The slopes are pretty gent...

Has anyone heard what impact, if any, that the phase of the moon has on rutting activity? We've got a full moon coming up on November 13.

What about your local game warden? Would he/she be of any help to you?

Lucky you're okay. That's a mess. Hopefully someone may shoot the buck and return your licence plate that is probably lodged in his ass. :shock: The deer should be easy to spot. It'll be the only one wandering around Ontario with a back end that looks like a front end. :wink: I don't know how car i...

Raccoons snore, eh? Now THERE'S a bit of wildlife trivia that will impress your friends.

What kind of camera are you using? The shots really are spectacular.

Some years back I read an article on falconry that talked about acquiring falcon and/or hawk chicks from nests in the wild. (Once acquired, you'd then raise them and train them to hunt.) Thinking back now, I can't remember the source of the article to save my life, but it seems like you could run af...

The only thing I would add to what everyone else has said is that I'm glad there are hunters like you out there in the woods. You made more than a good choice. You made a statement, and a darn good one at that.

A special "thank you" to Taureau Noir, Wabi, Cossack, Crazy Farmer and Awshucks for their invaluable help with my Varizone scope. When I skipped the fruitless 10-yard sighting exercise and went straight to 20 I was able to dial in 20 yards through 50 yards like clockwork. You fellows are g...

Good afternoon, everyone! I hope that your respective hunting seasons are going well, or if they haven't started yet, that they're shaping up to be great. I'm having a problem sighting in my Varizone scope and I was wondering if anyone on the forum might be able to help. I can zero in at 10 yards wi...
