I used to sell handmade (lathe turned) predator calls out of exotic woods. RAW are my initials so my little business was called RAW Custom Calls = rawcalls.

Mine originated from when I signed on to the forum vs how many more years I planned on working.
But I changed that a few weeks ago. Now its 29 DAYS left.

Sailboat name...

The sailboat itself was a small craft found mostly along the Maine coast, but able to travel very long distances...

I was rabbit and pheasant hunting in PA back in the late 90's with an older cousin and I made mention of the amount of deer sign there was along our travels and his comment was "yeah, there's a lot of Big meat running around here". I had never heard deer referred to as that before or since but it's all i call deer ever since that day. That handle attracts some characters to say the least on twitter eek

My tag name comes from not being creative.

Years back, before the internet and cell phones made land line phones obsolete, I would site at the table in October calling people with beaver damage complaints. I'd call and introduce myself by my name and explain why I was calling (or returning their call.)

often they would go "who?" and I would again start to explain why I was calling. Suddenly it would dawn on them who I was and they would suddenly exclaim "Oh, you're THEBEAVERGUY!"

The handle has stuck around since.

Stupidity... when I set up my username and password I thought the username would be the tag name. So apparently where I should have put in a tag name I put in my actual name with my last initial. Had I done it right I would be known as "grazingguy" because I am a pasture manager on a large grazing dairy.

I did the same thing. Mine would have been gunsboomguns. That is what my one buddies kid called me when he was little. It would have been southpaw but there was already a ton of them.

Because what piece of fur is more awesome than the 'possum!

Plus- I like things that rhyme.

Congrats on the retirement


Trapping is easy you say? You try getting your target animal to step in a 3 inch area of its whole territory.
