    Signs of fall!

    Apples dropping in the yard. Not fit for human consumption but the wife and I gather them for the hunting property. It's good to be married to a woman who likes venison!

    Rut? Pre Rut? Where are we and what's the real difference?

    shoulder surgery

    I had the same routine done. Dominant arm. It took me about 12 months to get back to strength, thankfully without the pain and instability that drove me to surgery in the first place. After that, I found I had more strength than before the surgery, which was awesome. The doc told me it would...

    Moon dates and times

    Scoutlook peak hunting times never loaded for me. Their latest update says fixed that issue, so hopefully will work. I like the Solunar interface better and that it shows a month at a time. Like most free apps, SL pushes ads. Worth $2.99 for me to be ad free. It's good we have choices!

    This years buy list

    I was feeling a little guilty talking to the wife about my buy list, but you guys make me feel like it's normal! Got cabelas cold weather bibs and bought a mid weight pullover. Using hang ons this year so bought lone wolf climbing sticks and some stands - including that millenium M100u from...

    Safety Harness

    I've got a couple from stands I've purchased. Might not be the most comfortable but could be a lifesaver. Send me a PM with an address and it will be on the way to you.
