Re: I swore I wouldn't....
Well seems like your disease has spread. In Waterloo yesterday and this ended up coming home with me: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53237774760_d5c3a689e6_h.jpg Assasin Extreme with the Overwatch scope instead of the Tact Zone shown in the stock image and added string and limb dampers as well.

Re: O/T health and hunting
Can't speak to your other points but pushing 60 and decided to attempt a "Dry Summer" and based on how it goes maybe stop permanently. At 7+ weeks now since my last drink and so far so good.Carnivorous wrote: ↑Tue Aug 08, 2023 8:07 am

Re: Widow Maker
Boy, that is a chuck of wood. More tools and less muscle would work of me. Did you ever get around to counting the rings? Did not count the rings but guessing +/- 100 years. Edit - Actually just looked at one of the pics of the rounds and anywhere from 8 to 20 rings per inch of diameter. So assumin...

Which current model?
So in the market for a new bow. What i want is the most reliable and accurate model currently on the market. Price is not a concern. Speed is not really a factor as they are all fast enough. That being said all else equal i would chose a faster bow if accuracy and reliability are not a concern. Let'...

Widow Maker
Spent 10 hours today dealing with a widowmaker that's been on my list for a long time. Finally managed to free up my company backhoe for a weekend. No way i wanted to tackle this sucker without it. Tree in question was an oak with pronounced lean over my driveway and a "V" base that was co...

Hardwater Chaos and PB Northern
Friday lunch time myself, my nephew and brother in-law and another buddy took a road trip to Abitibi for the weekend. We fished Saturday and Sunday and went in on the Munro Lake Road. The road ended up being drifted in resulting in an 18 km sled ride into the lake instead of the normal 8 km. Saturda...

Re: Bleeding fish
Do you bleed fish when you catch them? Does it truly make a difference, or is it another fad? Never even heard of bleeding fish. When i clean them i just make sure i pop the blood cavity along the spine and rinse the blood out. Been doing it that way for 45 years and they all taste good! Walleye i ...

Smoke em!
So the original plan was to head up to my place with a couple buddies and fish the last 2 days of the Nipissing Walleye Season (Closed March 15th). Well sometimes #$@% happens. Unfortunately one buddy had a serious family emergency and had to cancel. Than yours truly got #$%^&'d by the province ...

Re: Hunt 2023
I'll be ice fishing until mid-April. Than 2 weeks after that it's spring bear. I'll start worrying about deer about the first week of June. That will last until mid-August. Than switch back to bear until mid September. Than a nice focused few months on deer. Food plot wise i will probably just keep ...

O/T the power of social media - sometimes a good thing
Was doing rounds this afternoon at the various water treatment plants that my company operates and had the door open on one of the plants as i was moving chemicals into the building. Well in walks a hound. Beautiful female with a GPS collar but no other tags. This is in the middle of a subdivision. ...
