      Turkey hunting 2016

      Last Monday was my day. At sunrise I heard a great horned owl and moments later a gobble answered. At flydown he tried to head where the hens were roosted, but I called him back by alternating a box call and push button call. He took his time to cross the field to my decoys and strutted right in...

      turkey: shotgun or crossbow

      I have hunted turkey for years with shotgun. I am considering using the crossbow this spring. Is there a good reason to use a bow or should I stick with shotgun? I am not interested in guesses. I would like to hear from experience that has tried both.

      EAA Bounty Hunter grips

      I have a couple of EAA Bounty Hunter single actions. They shoot fine and I am thinking about dressing them up a little. Since it is basically a SAA clone, are the grips compatible with Colt SAA or Ruger Vaquero?

      1911 full size and commander

      I got to wondering, if you wanted to could you keep one 1911 frame set up the way you like and change slide/barrel/spring to have a full size or commander depending upon need or mood of the day?

      2015-16 deer hunting knife....?

      I have been very happy with my Elk Ridge er-107. It is inexpensive, but has a handsome burl handle. The first time I used it to dress a deer I retired my prior winchester fixed blade.

      So, what did this winter storm teach me about my preps?

      I learned during a thanksgiving camping outing years ago that a capful of wood alcohol per tank of kerosene can absorb and burn off water in the tank.

      "OFFICIAL 2013 HUNTING THREAD"

      Got my second deer ever on opening Saturday. At 4:00p he wandered into view, went behind a tree long enough for me to draw, and I was waiting for him on the other side of the tree. The family is excited about venison roast for Thanksgiving.
