The Great Gun Controversy

Nope! I like it and that and a ladder rack will give me one "hell" of a war wagon. OK every one help me think this through. Thompson Center Fire Encore. I am thinking 50 cal black powder and then maybe a 45-70 or 308 or maybe 30-06 as a heavy caliber single shot. Here is the link to TC http://www.tcarms.com/firearms/encore.php

Is this over the top?

So we are currently mounting the show "Our Town" which is a show that is performed on a bare stage. This means that I have a full metal shop and a lot of time on my hands.

What do you think of my deer hoisting boom?

If it works, I know what everyone's getting for Christmas.

Lesson Re-learned

Last night, duck hunting... First hour: 2 mallards fly over low from behind me at mach 2, not interested in my spread. Second hour, some Canada honkers fly in low and check me out, no goose hunting in this WMA, I stay legal. Third hour, unknown ducks check it out from a distance, but have been pecked at for four weeks by jerks like me and aren't interested. Fourth hour, tired of sitting here... I'm going home. Put down the shotgun and go in the water after the dekes, get about half of them in the bag when a Ringneck comes in and says hello, shakes hands, and leaves slowly with a dance. Me swearing loudly at the marsh. Then Willcut's voice in my head: "Always take your gun... I don't care if you're going out to take a shit, take your gun...". Damn... we had pizza last night.

Important! Final deer tag drawing upcoming!

Non-residents or anyone else who does not have a tag yet. The second drawing is complete which means that its time to put in your applications! You have until October 26th, but if I were you I'd do it RIGHT NOW.
The county designators and available tags are as follows:

Kingsbury - 42A03 - 100 Licenses - 1 antlerless ($55 non-resident)
Kingsbury - 42A09 - 104 Licenses - 2 antlerless ($80 non-resident)

Communications

Last year Toph and I invested in decent radios. We bought these and had pretty satisfactory results. They cost us about $60 for a set of two.

I reccomend that someone else buy another set (giving us pretty much enough radios for every hunter to have one). This exact brand and model is not really necessary, but you need them to be FRS/GMRS band.

Technically this band requires a license which one simply purchases from the FCC. I bought one and it covers family, including inlaws. Since Toph is married to Becca and Ryan is a cousin, and CP is married to our other sister [insert name here], I guess we can all operate on my license.

I did a lot of research on these radios last year, so if anyone wants more information let me know.

I just gotta say

How 'bout them Vikings! There is a rookie in the NFL, you might have heard of him, Adrian Peterson. Yeah, he's pretty good.

Love,
Chris

Gotta Advertise

Nice meat wagon there Topher. But look at what Phil and I will be pulling up in. We won't have to look for deer, they will call us asking to be shot... I bet Catherine's customers haven't thought of it this way. :-)

Schedule

Hey I was wondering what is the schedule for the hunting season. When do you guys plan on the Kingsbury trip? And are any of you going to apply for a Jerald county application. All I know is that I am going to kill!!!! And kill some more!!!

As per request... my new meat wagon.

Anyone want to buy a '91 Honda Civic Hatchback? Maybe we paint it camo and mount a .50 BMG on top...
