I need to start somewhere. i am thinking super performance SST and GameKings loaded in Federal.... Read More

Deer Hunting in Louisiana
I wanted to provide some personal experiance with the Remington Managed Recoil Rounds for .308.
I have a Remington Model seven in youth stock I sometimes use when hunting out of a climber stand. The guns size is great, it's small, compact, still a 30 caliber and has good range if I need it.
My daughter took her first deer last year with a snappy(Remington Model 700 short action) little.... Read More

My father-in-law and I lost our Duck blind due to a property sale after leasing it 8 years. Would love to find something new in the Hwy 71 south area.(We have another deer lease in the area) Responsible weekend hunters ages 36 and 58.

Open to book some guided hunts in the same area. Capable of booking most all weekends.

thanks

I have a Honda 2000 400 foreman and the Shocks are shot on them and need to be replaced.
I normally dont do much mechanic work but this looks easy. Any recomendations on good sites to order them from. I want to go ahead and order the parts so when I get time I can work on it. Also I have read where some people say the 450 shocks will work just fine also and will raise it up some since the.... Read More

Fishing in Venice in Southeast Louisiana
It was a long day working then we ran into Captain Chris Callaway at the Venice Marina. We went out on a scouting trip just for the fun of it. 1 hour later we had a 5 man nice limit of Red Fish. We saw no oil. Just the corks getting dragged down. Thanks Captain Chris we had a BLAST.

Also thanks to Verizon for providing free internet services for anyone that wanted to use it.

Been looking at the Judge but not sure if I want the bigger heavier 3in model and have cheap easy access ammo or the smaller Public Defender model with the Hard to find 2 1/2 rounds.
Mostly a snake gun, Armidillo killer, side weapon until bow season opens. Hope to try on some doves while laying under a MOJO Dove...HA
Mostly gonna use shot shells.
Thanks,

My plots have been coming up beautiful until the water comes in. i am looking for some more water resilient food plot plants to try. Come late november those pretty plots start holding water.

I use a combination of Oats, turnips, winter wheat,.... Read More

has anyone done any touch up work on Blueing on a barrel.
I have a small spot about the size of a pinkey print and at the end of the barrel where the blueing has come off. There is no rust the surfaces are clean. I have seen the marker and seen some stuff at academy just never used it before. I do know that cold blueing offers no protection just cosmetic. Has anyone done any touch up on the.... Read More

What are you seeing as the best scope for the dollar.
low end Leupolds are not what they used to be and looking through them are about the same as lowest end NIKON.
How about the Nikon 4200 or Monarch?
Is Burris any decent?
Looking to put on a 30-06. Its for a Back up weapon or for pipeline stands.

Anyone work on AC/Heating units. AC works fine. The heater blows some warm air but,not much at all. A couple months ago it would sweat you out. Are there elements that could have gone out and can be replaced. its a 220 unit kenmore about 5 years old. Location is near Krotz Springs.

Thanks,

  • Big Rattler. Killed today
Look what I had to eliminate on Work day at the Hunting Camp. My father in law runs over this guy on the way home. He called me at the camp because though hit he was coiled up and ticked off. We tried to use a stick to pull his head out the coil( for a clean shot on the head). Well he did not like that much. Rattle going nuts then he started striking. Some .22 Magnum Ratshot finally hung his.... Read More

Got my LSU Season tickets in today. As excited as I wanted to be because I follow the Tigers Blind as anyone. I was greatly dissapointed in the tickets this year. First of all the package was soaked from Rain since the Dumb A$$ that delivered it put in on my drip line.
Each year the tickets get better. Nice new graphic design, pretty and very professional...This year not the case. If they.... Read More
