    Best varmint caliber

    Have you considered a .17HMR. If you are concerned with pelt damage this may be a good choice. I've been using this caliber since it came on the market. I bought it mainly for use calling raccoons during daylight. But, it turned into my groundhog gun also. Most times the 20gr. HP never exits the...

    Random weather thread

    My brother just finished working on a place he bought in April in Punta Gorda. He figures it will be destroyed today, hope he is wrong.

    Final Preps

    Made our final preps for the season last week. Mowed a few trails we made for the deer to hopefully follow. Got all of shooting lanes trimmed. Got heaters and propane tanks hooked up for cold weather. Cut a few trees that blocked my view from my creek bottom stand. Was a fun filled day working...

    Hit list

    Wish I had more choices, but waiting for one particular buck is my MO anyways. The only one that I've seen this summer that trips my trigger.

    Grandfather's fishing poles

    Really great thread. You did a great job bringing those back to life. They did make a matching rod to the Green Hornet reel. But, the original your grandfather used was best suited to use in this restoration.

    Tractor Project

    It was finally time to retire my old lawn tractor to mowing duty only. The old gal has had a few parts replaced here and there. But, to be honest she had a pretty tough life the past 15 years. The first couple years she was more of a brush hog then a mower. As I got older she became my means of...

    Just Dropping In

    I haven't forgot about you fellas. Hope everyone is doing well. Just been a few months of ups and downs here. Been working on a few projects in Carrollton and spent a while in South Carolina this summer. Those were what I would call the ups. I did lose the man that taught me how to hunt, fish...

    History of my camp

    Very cool indeed. The history you were able to uncover is priceless. What a great place to pass time. I really like the photos in the one picture.

    Hortontoter's 2021 Season

    Well my thoughts this past week are “ where did all the deer go”. Hunted threes days this past week. Great weather and good wind, but not a deer to be seen. May get out a day or two before gun season.

    Sighting In With Middle Reticle...Your Opinion

    You probably hit the nail on the head. I am sighted in now at 20 yards with the top reticle. I'll check my zero before I hunt this coming week to be sure the zero hasn't changed somehow. I highly doubt that it has. Like I said I may be trying to fix my problem with my equipment instead of fixing...

    Sighting In With Middle Reticle...Your Opinion

    I believe that the three reticle scope on my WR Warrior is wreaking havoc on my arrow placement when shooting at a deer. I am either aiming with the wrong line or snap shooting without really concentrating on which line is where on the deer. What ever I'm doing it is not good. I looked into a...
