Happy Birthday. Sounds like a special birthday gift being able to talk with your old man for a while.

Green Mill is still there Big G. White Horse in downtown St. Cloud is good as well.

Yup, muzzleloaders, just like everything else have advanced with their capabilities. Mine is very accurate at 200 yards and I’m sure could get more distance out of it but haven’t tried.

Buddy has a cabin on West Battle. This morning it still had open water. By about 3 in the afternoon it was all locked up.

Congrates Gander, good one!

Forsure Grim, well earned!

On a side note, a camera I set up over a scrape in late October is being reworked by a couple bucks in the last couple days. Second/late rut going on.

Nice one eyeguy, congrates!

Congrates to your son Jackfish! I had a pretty good sit as well, deer were moving and moving pretty early. Saw three on each of the two neighbors property and three on the property I was on but unfortunately where they were in the field I could not see until I got down. Figuring there might be some out I did slow creep and got pretty close to them but it was well past last shooting.

I’m sitting close to the house in wife’s cousins box stand this evening. It’s on the edge of an oak stand with picked corn to south and beans to west of me.

If you go over to archery talk you will get alot of answers. I haven’t ran the .5 but I assume it’s pretty similar to my novix helo.
Whats the issue with the regular seat ? I find the standard seat pretty comfy on my lone wolf stands. I can say is do not prefer longer then a couple hours on my novix raider mesh seat.

You didn’t like mesh bc? Like noted, haven’t used it but thought I would try it. Still got the original if need to go back.

I got the novix mesh seat but have yet to use it since I got it. The originals are not that comfortable for longer sits. The weight is the same between the two but the mesh is wider, so maybe more cumbersome when walking but will also provide a larger shelf.

Another what could have been season for the gophs. Badgers are terrible but always nice beating them in a rivalry game and the series has been a little more even as of late.

Yea he gone! Even some of the player comments after the game were like WTF, why aren’t we using the last timeout! Da Bears

If it’s anything like my buddies ski doo renegade you will not be disappointed. That thing was a treat to ride and no matter where on the throttle it took off, no hesitation any where. Nice machine EP. I haven’t started ours up yet.

Congrates Jake, dandy

Some of the first lite clothes is 40% off, if the website has the sale so will scheels.

Agree rip, let’s not forget this was the third road game in a row for them and went 3-0 regardless of the three teams they played. The Bears are the Bears and once again mistakes killed them. Williams looked pretty good but how do you take that sack in overtime.

Congrates B-man!

Nice B-Man, good blood!

My buddy hand loads and lucky enough he has the dies for 300wsm, which is hard enough ammo to find. He loaded me 180gr accubonds and couldn’t be happier so far. Accurate and lethal, two deer this year went a total of about a yard. A lot cheaper too. When I could get ammo regularly, I did like the fusions, same gun shot those well.

I have a Ruger in 300 WSM and have only shot one deer with it and that was with core lokts and the performance of those was absolutely terrible. It got the job done but left a hole the size of a basketball in it. After talking to some friends that have guns in that caliber they said those bullets just aren’t built for that kind of power. Just an FYI for anyone else out there that’s looking at different options.

I did try core lokts at the range once but for whatever reason it would not cycle very well, hard to pull the bolt back at times. Only round I have found to do this. That’s as far as I got with those but what could be “bad” round for one gun could be a great one for another.

This Browns-Steelers game is good, fun to watch in the snow.

Good luck all hunting in sconi. Looks like a choice spot B-man.

I keep them in the factory boxes as well and have dedicated drawer(s) in the dresser for them. Can store a lot of ammo this way.

agree with you grim, deer drives are pretty much non existent now it seems. At least in the areas I hunt they are. We used to get together with other parties around and do drives, none now.

Nice! Congrates to both

Just saw this one on Facebook, 27ton with a Honda engine. Description shows says it was used twice. Can’t say I know that is a good price but seems descent?

The suspicious part of this whole thing is they reference excess inventory of unsold sleds. They switched to snow check only sales many years ago so if they only build what someone ordered that sled is sold

I work right next door, there’s a pile of crates in their lot at the moment.

Is the same at Polaris in Roseau, stacked up high!

I’m sitting on the ground in an area where we saw a couple last night walking out. Where I first sat down didn’t like as sight to the west was not great. Decided to make a little move and as I got up and look to the west a nice 8 and doe staring at me! Off they went. This was about 10 minutes ago. Barely anybody out now.
