having read this report
what was made public of it

it was after noon so unlikely they went in in the dark.

2 fathers
2 sons
the two parties did not know each other.

34 & 3 and 40 & 7

set up about 35 yards apart

my guess is they spent a while calling to each other but can't confirm that

34 year old held , aimed and fired the gun but tried to call it youth season because he had his 3 year old with possibly on his lap.

this is very busy public land 35-40 minutes south west of Milwaukee

I would be interested to know if any decoys were present or if any gobble calls were made.

I think it is fairly clear the 34 year old was in the wrong , A it isn't a youth hunt if the kid can't aim and fire the gun on their own , B you need to have a clear head shot with beard identification and movement to be clear to shoot there are just too many people running decoys and setting up 10-15 yards behind them.

I also suspect neither party wore any orange while moving into position which is not a legal requirement but a darn good idea on any public land an orange hat or bandana is just being smart tie that bandana to your barrel or around your head , once you are set in position take it off and stuff it in a pocket or bag. does that make hunting harder , sure , does it make moving on public land a lot safer , yes.

Estate sales/auctions are chaotic around here and pricey but I am patient and get my share. What makes it easier for me is I dont care what it is as long as I can flip it and make money. Got a Wagnerware Magnalite roaster last week for 3.00 and it just sold for 150.00. 5 people ahead of me passed on it ort didnt see/know it.

so technically with my readers on in the better light

phenothrin is the active in the dog shampoo vs the Permethrin in the concentrate.

they are in the same family

source
https://www.epa.gov/mosquitocontrol...umithrinr-synthetic-pyrethroids-mosquito

Permethrin, Resmethrin, d-Phenothrin (Sumithrin®): Synthetic Pyrethroids For Mosquito Control
Pyrethroids are synthetic chemical insecticides that act in a similar manner to pyrethrins, which are derived from chrysanthemum flowers. Pyrethroids are widely used for controlling various insects. Permethrin, resmethrin, and d-phenothrin (Sumithrin®) are synthetic pyrethroids commonly used in mosquito control programs to kill adult mosquitoes.

Permethrin has been registered by the EPA since 1979. It is currently registered and sold in a number of products such as residential indoor and outdoor insect foggers and sprays, treated clothing, flea products for dogs, termite treatments, agricultural and livestock products, and mosquito abatement products. It is also regulated by the Food and Drug Administration as a treatment of head lice and scabies. Permethrin is the most widely used mosquito adulticide in the U.S. and is used to treat 9 to 10 million acres annually (out of 32-39 million acres treated with a mosquito adulticide). Permethrin’s widespread use can be attributed to its low cost, high effectiveness, low incidence of pest resistance, and broad labeling.
Resmethrin has been registered by the EPA since 1967. It is currently registered for use only in public health and vector control programs to control adult mosquitos, biting and non-biting midges and blackflies. Because of its toxicity to fish, resmethrin is a Restricted Use Pesticide that is available for use only by certified pesticide applicators or persons under their direct supervision. The resmethrin registrants voluntarily canceled all of the resmethrin products. After December 31, 2015, resmethrin registrants will no longer be able to sell and distribute resmethrin products. However, user will be able to continue using any product they have purchased.

D-phenothrin (Sumithrin®) has been registered by the EPA since 1976 for use to control adult mosquitos and other nuisance insects indoors and outdoors in residential yards and public recreational areas. Use sites include in and around residential/domestic dwellings, commercial and industrial buildings, transportation vehicles, recreation areas, animal quarters, direct animal treatment (dogs). While there are no direct applications to food crops, d-phenothrin labels allow for applications to control mosquitoes over agricultural as well as non-agricultural areas.

I prefer prepared horse radish over the sauce, too much other stuff in the sauce (high fructose corn syrup, etc). Just ground horse radish, vinegar and salt in the prepared stuff.

There's a guy I know who has both knees replaced, one hip, and one shoulder replaced. He said knees and hip were almost fun compared to the shoulder replacement. He said it's the therapy that's really tough.

Thinking about it one of those fat caulk guns for making jerky would probably be pretty handy for filling bottles.

Yikes. What kind of church is left of center in AR? I can't quite comprehend that. Maybe Bill and Hillary's?

There daddy was a Democrat, his daddy was a Democrat, and his daddy... That's what most of those folks are. They hitched their selfs to that wagon and refuse to let go. They are the type folks that hunt but don't believe someone should own an AR.

Same here, plus oatmeal is healthier. Never used to think about that aspect, but I try to eat a little smarter these days....


I had a nutrition class back in college and the subject of breakfast cereals came up. There had been an experiment done with rats where they were fed exclusively one brand or another of cereals (all fortified with essential minerals and vitamins). All the rats that ate rice, wheat, or corn derived cereals perished before a year. The oat base cereals had them going strong even after a year.

I often read the trappers assigning critiques as to the quality of the meat their rifles brought down. They really wanted a nice fat cow, not a tough ol' bull.

ayahuasca is interesting. Ron White is clean and sober now. He has good things to say about it. Shawn Ryan has good things to say about it. Joe Rogan has good things to say about it.

There are centers around the country you can take a weekend retreat at. The stats seem to be impressive helping with PTSD and Addiction.

It supposedly helps you find religion maybe if not just seeing the bigger picture and driving the evil out. Def worth looking into if you need help!

She is doing well but now has kidney problems i believe due to the anti rejection and other drugs. She walks all hunched over at times. Sometime she seems like she is herself and sharp other times not so much. Can come up with some completely unrelated off the wall ideas that have not a thing to do with the conversation going on. I believe she has some permanent damage from high toxic levels. I cant remember the stage her kidney are in but it didnt sound great.


My wife had me call my neurologist office this morning about the vision change. I did thinking it was going be pointless like the last few times i called them with symptom changes but They told me to go to an ER so I can get testing done quickly and schedule a follow up. They said if some thing have happened and not caught fast the problem may become permanent. So looks like I will be spending my day off in an ER. Being immune compromised from ms treatment its the last place I want to be. Taking the dog for a ride in the truck around the farm first. I want to see how things are greening up after all the bushoging I did last week and check and see if I have any bees to work.

Good idea. It shouldn't take a fancy detector to find a log chain.

if there is one plus side to taking your chains in for sharpening , it is a lot less likely they leave you enough cutter that you sharpen more then 8 times

where you might run a chain a very long time if you keep it out of the dirt and hand file.

I use 3/4 inch oak stakes that are 8 feet long. These bundle very nicely and really aren't too heavy when dry.

I use these on rat huts in wild rice beds. There is no bottom...can't get out of a boat.

During my time with the BLM I had a highly respected geologist tell me that 95% of mining on Federal lands are nothing but scams. Most people aren't aware that congress under both major parties have chosen not to replace the 1872 Mining Law which still governs mining on federal public lands. Having had to permit mining claims myself I can tell you most are not legitimate and the bonds required under current law are insufficient to remediate the damage when the operation is complete. The public is left holding the bag and has to pay the price to clean up the left-over mess. There is also the continuing and increasing failure of public officials and government agencies (and employees) to do their jobs in enforcing current laws and regulations in all aspects of our society. Responsible mining absolutely has its place in our world. The professionals in the US Forest Service evaluated the risks and impacts of this proposal and found it detrimental to the environment and the public interest. Bought and paid for politicians of both major parties overruled them. Another example of why term limits are needed so we have people representing the public interest in congress and not the agenda of their corporate masters. We are destroying our nation for a dollar and the very resources we as trappers and hunters depend on. Drinking water is the most critical resource we have in this country and it's becoming scarcer every year. No project negatively affecting this basic human need should ever be approved.

Could you please post your references for clean drinking water becoming scarcer every year? I haven't been in the Boundary Waters since I was a kid in Boy Scouts, and haven't researched the proposed mining at all, so can't comment on that. But unless you can prove differently, I very much doubt that clean drinking water is actually getting scarcer in the US.

Lots of variations. Many based on materials folks can get easily/cheaply.

Barnes sells his "Set N Go" that is similar for folks who don't want to fabricate as well.
