    Middle Keys in April

    After a cancelled trip a couple years ago, we are headed to Islamorada in late April. Looks like we are staying in a bay side house for week. The family fishing crew is me and three guys in their twenties. I'm thinking one day offshore charter (Mahi would be nice), one day backcountry, and one...

    Lots of Links

    Over the last two weeks the home sausage factory was in full swing. I tried a few new things like cutting with brisket trimmings and a couple new blends. It was a pretty serious undertaking and some days felt like work, 8 plus hours. The results are quite pleasing. First week was hanging and...

    Making memories

    My son, Logan and I headed out to Wyoming last Friday for a long-anticipated elk hunt. After several years of buying points and missing draws he pulled a bull tag, his first ever. He should be very busy in the next couple years as he starts a new career. This was the year to make it happen. We...

    The use of preferred pronouns has been brewing in my place of employment for the last few years. A few tags on emails and some discussions here and there, but nothing official. I've seen a surge of use lately from some higher ups and it appears policy decisions could be on the horizon. I had a...

    Take a Moment

    The recent death of a man while elk hunting got me thinking about a past incident I had. It's easy to dismiss the tragedy as people being idiots, uneducated, or hunting slobs. My story is a simple one, easily avoidable and never should have happened. I still have hard time thinking of how...

    First Lite Kanab pant repair

    My favorite pair of hunting pants are my merino wool First Lite Kanab 2. I know they are prone to easy rips and wear, but this weekend I completely blew out the inseam and zipper stitch down one of the legs. It looks like the material is intact but a couple seams and stitching pulled out. Anyone...

    Drone Photography/Videography

    Anyone have experience with drones? I'm looking to get one around $500, maybe a bit more if there is a huge performance difference. My son (19 yr old) will be operating and is fairly experienced in photography. He has a Go Pro, not sure if it's best to utilize that camera or look for drone with...

    packable thin plastic from Caribou game bag kit

    I bought a Caribou game bag kit that came with a very thin and light plastic sheet. Anyone know where to buy something similar? Ideally it would come already folded in a small package like the one in kit.

    .280 AI New Rifle

    I've been kicking around the idea of a new rifle in .280 AI for a year or two. The Bergara Highlander checks most the boxes for production guns, but also considering CA Ridgeline and Kimber. I would like to stay around 2K, more than that and I will start looking for a builder. I know Viking Guy...
