It's low key, but we enjoy it. We've camped back here for years. I'll try to remember to take a picture tomorrow.
We're 250 yards from the house, so it's pretty convenient. 🤣
Sounds like (not) a blast!
We have 12 acres and none of the neighbors mind me shooting. Even hypersonic .22 is very quiet. One summer I did a lot of testing with a 25/06. Well over 1,000 rounds! 🤣
This is what I have for .22's. When I shoot centre fire, or pattern a shotgun, I take the 3...
Turkeys are done for me. Settled for a jake. He came in to the call so nice I couldn't resist. 😁 Mowing season is here (and other outdoor work), so I guess it's good that I'm done in that way. Now, I just have to learn to sleep past 4:30. 🤣
Here's a brief update after a couple of years. I've been super happy with the coop and run.
Until recently, our chickens free ranged all day. Our only close neighbor loved them and encouraged them to come visit, that is, until they got into her garden. After a couple of terse emails I decided...
Have you ever been walking across a plowed field and come upon a flat chunk of rock and thought, "I wonder if I could make a turkey call out of that?"
Well... I have... 🤦♀️
It works.... ok. Ideally it would be louder, and maybe a slightly lower pitch, but I'm gonna try it anyway.
Called this young fella from a ridge top 250 yds away and convinced him to fly across the river, then decided to let him walk.
I can be a nice guy sometimes. 🤣
For the opening day of turkey season I went to a semi-new place I used to call coyotes at a few years ago. The morning had several toms gobbling on the roost, and at least one came very close, but stayed in the trees rather than coming into the field I was set up in. After they wandered off I...
I would simply run a 2x10 on edge across the sill plate to give you an additional 9½" of depth off the floor, and something solid to mount the nesting boxes to. Inset it the thickness of the exterior sheathing so you can transfer the piece you cut from above. It will be mostly hidden by the...
STORY TIME 🤣
It was the evening before the last day of the season. I shot a jake opening day, then hunted the rest of the season without a good opportunity at a shot. Things had been quiet for several days, and I had figured the season was a wrap when I saw this tom in the small field beside...
I would say the population is down here in Ontario as well. I think there are too many coons which can cut into the hatch rate pretty heavily.
In other news, I hope to decrease the population by two this spring. 😁
I bought a vinyl wrap kit for $20 to try on this shotgun. It's typically my...
