Merriam’s Bow hunt

I know a few people who liked at first also but apparently it has quite few bugs to be worked out and they ended up shoot canning it!

I just heard about it on the news. Yesterday was Google’s 10 year anniversary. Started in a garage about the time the movie Titanic came out.

I’ll have to try it.

Yep, at first it seemed pretty good and worked alright, but once I used it for awhile I started noticing some things I didn’t like.

If you want to highlight the URL bar to copy/paste you need to click and drag (FireFox does this in a single click).
I never did find a “Home” button on Chrome.
It hung up uploading pics to photobucket
It hung up uploading vids to YouTube.

FireFox 3 is the browser for me right now.

i think ill stick with firefox until google can support the same types of popup and ad blockers that firefox contains. they are too good to give up!

Diddo on the Firefox for me too but the Chrome has some serious potential once they get the bugs worked out.

The home button is under tools, then options then the “basics” tab.

Going to play around with it awhile, I dropped firefox a long time ago, after I figured out IE was faster despite other’s claim’s there were other issues too, but I can’t remeber them all, and I’ve just never went back.

I agree IE is just as fast as FireFox maybe more so with the recent FireFox-3 upgrade.

I know FireFox is the rage and I’m sure it’s a great browser but I have tried it numerous times and found it not to be to my liking.

I use Avant Browser for the most part.

I’ve gone away from FF over the last couple months. We each new upgrade it gets slower and slower and I was seeing more frozen pages and other issues.

I’ll be giving chrome a try shortly.

I use IE7 with a program called IE7Pro…..
Has these features plus a spell check,a “Tabs”(multiple sites},and some mouse shortcuts I really like.

Couple of pics from SD.

First pic –
Is my brother and I with toms. My brother shot 3/4 his beard off! It was a great shot! Mine Was shot near the creek and it did a cartwheel into the creek. A 15-20 foot drop on a steep bank.(that is why the tail is all wet) He didn’t swim away!!!

Second is My second tom with a double beard….

All the Birds were 2 year old birds.
Didn’t weight them. 18-21ish lbs.
The Double bearded bird had a 9″ and a 3.5″ beard
spurs – 5/8ish but I didn’t measure
