    Snake gaiters or Regular gaiters in snake country

    Yeah... I have seen that shit as well. Makes a man want to puke, wizz his pants, and run home crying.

    Snake gaiters or Regular gaiters in snake country

    I never bothered with snake gaiters out west, but deer hunting in the south often involves busting waist high grass in the dark for me... Yeah, I am pretty religious about snake gaiters down here.

    Fly Tying/Fishing Thread

    That is the goal. it's all been experimenting and prototyping to date. This batch is the first that made it to completion. Had to learn how to do bluing, and some very finicky cuts with a bandsaw and router. I wanted to go with stainless steel for the frame, but the raw material cost was...

    Fly Tying/Fishing Thread

    Just finished a couple prototype fly boxes up. I wanted something that felt like an old english shotgun. Figured out a way to fiberglass reinforce walnut so I could get it to be warp free and 3/32" thick without being fragile.

    Insert Installation Tips?

    OP, you can use hot water on the end of the arrow shaft to loosen hot melt without damaging the carbon. Personally I have had the best hotmelt success with Kimsha Hot melt. Secondly, the steering of broadheads or vanes is due to turbulence/drag. That air disruption from the broadhead smooths...

    Well, it's not good. Not religious but prayers are welcomed.

    Dave, I haven't ever posted on here, but I watched you walk through this from afar. As all of us probably can attest, I've felt a small measure of the grief you've been dealt and I am so sorry.

    Tinder/Hinge/dating apps in general

    WTF did I just read?!?! Never been on a dating app. Happily married for 8 years now.

    Fly Tying/Fishing Thread

    Coming in late on the answer for this, but I like big articulated flies. Preferably with a deceiver style back end, and either a muddler head, or a stacked bucktail front half that gives a very tall/thin profile. Either one can give some funky movement in the water, and you will be shocked at...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I love it. This is an awesome idea. Nitpicking isn't really gonna help until the big issues are getting addressed.

    Stoking the fire

    @Ben Lamb you seem like the perfect candidate for traditional archery. Especially the making and shooting of self bows. #justsayin

    I drew a once in a lifetime sheep tag at 25. Now what?

    Father of a 1 year old here. I must say your timing is... lacking. You do know how to count 9 months, right? On a more serious note, and has been said ad nauseum, get your game face on now about prepping the house for your wife. Assume worst case scenario, which is that she won't be able to...

    2024 Colorado Draw Results Thread

    Don't have any photos of CO animals that ended up dead at my hands... that said, a certain handsome someone I know maaaay have introduced the camp raiding chipmunk to their recurve a few years back. But that's just hearsay of course :D

    Fly Rod help

    I used to fly fish 70-80 days a year. That's dropped quite a bit now, more like 10-15. But what I have found is I am moving away from the super fast, high end graphite rods, to fiberglass, and middle of the road flex rates for all but streamers/super heavy nymph rigs. Basically I got into...

    Ethics of removing tree stands from public land

    Sometimes I think guys feel like they have a better tab of who's hunting what, than is actually true... I know for a fact 5 bucks got taken out of a 4-500 acre chunk of woods I was hunting last year. I only ran into one of those hunters, and I spent some 12-14 days in the area. If my buddy who...

    What is going on?

    There's a big enough body count for me to be convinced. I'd shoot an elk or moose with the "Rokslide special".

    Single Bevel Broadhead

    Geeze. The single bevel crap sure has been a good marketing fad. Single bevel is not a magic pill. It is not inherently more or less accurate (surface area, proper spine, torque free bow, and lack of run out are what influence broadhead flight). It will not create "more blood". Blood is a...

    Great Social Media posts?

    Anyone wanna buy some lightly used Iron Will Wides to fund my boycotting of this? Or trade me some sexy RMSG Cutthroat 3 blades for them? Will give you three 125 gr heads for four of your 125 grain heads! :ROFLMAO:
