Cool pictures!

I think the average trapper should not be out there playing doctor or veterinarian or biologist. These are wild animals, not our pets!

If you're concerned about what you’re doing is hurting an animal, then stop what you’re doing!!!

No wonder your wife decorated the tree. You're never home during deer season!

It would be funny if a lot of liberal communities hadn't already adopted similar nomenclature for Christmas.

Festivals of lights, Winter festivals, snow festivals and Winter greenery lighting festivals abound.

The immigrants from India and China aren't being brought here to pick crops. The photo that made the rounds of Trump with the gold medalists from the Physics Olympiad was certainly visually striking.



Is there good reason to lure the best and brightest from other countries to make their home in the USA? I think so, and that's the theory behind the H-1B visa. But the H-1B program has been abused to bring in workers from Indian diploma mills as cheap labor, displacing American tech workers who have been struggling in the current job market. Even Elon Musk, who is a supporter of H-1B visas, just admitted that there are outsourcing firms that game the system. The $100,000 fee Trump announced for H-1B workers seems like a step in the right direction to filter out the lower-quality candidates. If there's truly an outstanding candidate who brings value and expertise that fills a void in the American job market, the company will pay the fee to bring him over. I don't know if the fee goes too far or not far enough; we'll just have to see how the job market reacts to this new fee. But I do believe that the USA is enriched by bringing in the best and brightest, and we should maintain a sensible policy for doing so.

Fair depends on skill sets, ambition, a lot of things really. But anything less than $75 an hour…and you won’t see me around, I have better things to do

That's a sweet buck

No problem...that was me fussing about that Moultrie nonsense.

Nesco here, too.

Had a ranch in 5.56/.223 was a slick gun. I shot supressed. Sold it and regret it. Ruger owns glenfield now and they just released the glenfield model A. I just picked one up in .243, its basically a rebadged american. Think all the calibers are in 20 or 22 inch barrels. Come threaded and a scope rail. 400 bucks at the local gun shop. I plan on a .223 next. Again i shoot supressed, noise or recoil has been minimal.

Always try to get em skinned and quartered soon as i get back to the garage. They go on ice in a cooler with the drain open. As for aging i cant really taste a difference on the does. I like deer though so it gets ate reguardless. Will generally cut the throat im the field and try to let them bleed out as much as possible. Will gut with the deer hunt from hind legs.

Man a slice of that warm bread slathered with butter sure sounds good right now. It's been a while. I need to get my starter out and rejuvenate it.

Exciting for you I bet .
