    French Baguettes

    Passing along something I found on YouTube and have been making for a while now. It's a family favorite and goes great as a side for all kinds of dinners. It's how to make french baguettes by a retired cook named John Kirkwood. The video over 10 million views (coming up on 11 million) at the...

    Ohio Nuisance Wild Animal Control Operator

    Thought I'd share something I did about 5 years ago and again today to get up to date that others might want to check into. Ohio has a free study guide & test you can take to become a Commercial Nuisance Wild Animal Control Operator. You really don't need it to trap/kill nuisance wildlife, but...

    DIY Tire Changing

    Anyone do it themselves? I've been watching a lot of videos of people changing their own tires. I bought a HF manual tire changer, some tire irons, and a valve stem kit and will be putting drop in anchors in the garage for it so I can move it out of the way to store it. I don't have tires...

    Sausage Stuffers

    Anyone have recommendations on a decent sausage stuffer? Vertical / horizontal, capacity recommendations, brand, etc? What do you use? What would you stay away from? Cabala's had a 2 day sale on their 5# model for $89 but passed on it because I just bought a new grinder. Probably should...

    Arial attack

    I've been hunting from the ground, either in a blind or just sitting by a tree. Never been in a tree stand, so I don't know much about them, but I think I want to get in one this year. I've been looking at hicks site and can't decide if a ladder stand would be best or just go with a cheap...

    What plant is this?

    Anyone know what it is? I found a patch of it at my place last weekend. Can't find anything on the googles.

    Growing Morels

    Anyone ever try doing something like this? This looks pretty cool. I'm thinking about getting a small pack of dried morels from a store and giving this a try. FF to about 5 minutes to see how he does it, but basically he's just blending up a few morels with some growth medium and then pouring...

    Bought a new toy

    I've had my eye on this deal at Costco for the last month or so and decided to pick one up tonight. I'll be upgrading the seat but other than that this thing is pretty damn slick. Has plenty of storage, two rod holders and a paddle. At 12' it should track good and be plenty fast. I owned a...

    Crawfish

    Anyone ever try to catch enough of them to do a boil? If so, what's your preferred location / method of catching them? Any tips for a beginner? And as far as laws are concerned, looks like you are limited to 100 in your possession unless you have a bait dealer's license. I can't find...

    Snatch block

    I'm looking at getting a snatch block for my ATV. I don't plan on using it for recovery right now (not out of the question, but I doubt where I ride I'll need it). I'll basically be using it to move logs around or to get widowmakers going in the right direction in my woods when I cut them...

    Coop design

    Anyone have any experience with this type of coop? looks like a pretty cool design. Any disadvantages to something like this? I don't have experience with chicken coops / chickens but want to get into it here in the future and am just looking for something simple to make and maintain.

    Priorities

    Husband went to the sheriff's department to report that his wife was missing. Husband: My wife is missing. She went shopping yesterday and has not come home.... Officer: What is her height? Husband: I'm not sure. A little over five-feet tall. Officer: Weight? Husband: Don't know...

    Deer Heart & Liver

    Do you keep them, and if so, what's your favorite recipe? I like the flavor of the heart, but I'm not a big fan of the texture. After trimming all the junk off, I slice it real thin and just fry it up with salt and pepper and then put it on a sandwich or have it with eggs for breakfast. I get...

    Face paint

    What do you guys use / recommend? I've been using carbomask. It goes on good, but I can't seem to stop scratching my face - it makes me itch and by the time I'm done hunting it's pretty jacked up. It's kinda pricey as well. I do like how easy it washes off, though.

    Rabbit Tracks?

    When going into the blind a few days ago, I found what I think are rabbit tracks but I'm not sure. I don't really see front paw marks like I see on pictures of tracks I googled, but it sure looks like those big back feet. What do you think?

    Sunrise / Sunset App

    Can I use a phone app that calculates sunrise sunset based on current location or do I have to use the published ones on the ODNR site? My location shows about a 3 minute difference than the published chart (3 minutes longer than what the chart says). That's 3 minutes of extra prime-time I'd...

    Glasses fogging up!!!

    Anyone have any suggestions about how to deal with glasses fogging up in cold weather when wearing face masks? Anytime I cover my nose I end up blowing steam up on my glasses. I've tried anti fogging crap and a thin film of soap. That seems to sorta work, but instead of fog I just end up with...
