Re: Hunting
For moose hunting, I recommend the Ford Econoline 350.

Concur; a solid vehicle, good ground clearance, and likely enough room for the moose. Perfectrstrong wrote:For moose hunting, I recommend the Ford Econoline 350.

My next door neighbor killed a 5 point buck with a Stryker crossbow this morning.
I'm not a hunter but just bought an arsenal at the gun shop this morning.

Re: Hunting
From the August 2002 Alta, Utah, town newsletter (as featured in the Salt Lake Tribune): "July 14: At 12 p.m., the deputy on duty responded to a report of a man chasing a moose in Albion Basin. It is suspected that this is related to a subsequent report of a moose chasing a man."Leo Lyons wrote:Yep, There's no rush like being chased by a bear that didn't go down by a six-shooter.

No excitement in ones life makes for a bore. I carry more then one and I figure if 6 shots from the revolver(which has always worked by the way)and the 15 from the auto don't work it deserves to live.Leo Lyons wrote:Yep, There's no rush like being chased by a bear that didn't go down by a six-shooter.Stinger wrote:Go try it with a griz.Colonel Taylor wrote:So no bear hunters who use old Sam colt?

Re: Hunting
I see at least 3-4 doe daily while hunting, yet have only seen one buck so far. This will be a good season and we will be in deer meat for a while. But I want the bear!neoplacebo wrote:Wneglia wrote:My next door neighbor killed a 5 point buck with a Stryker crossbow this morning.

Gee, doc. Is it the Mayan calendar thing? climate change? vague angst?
My youngest next year wants to use a cross bow.

One of my partners is a prepper, and I guess I've been listening to him too much, but I thought I should have something for self defense in case of the zombie apocalypse.neoplacebo wrote:Wneglia wrote:My next door neighbor killed a 5 point buck with a Stryker crossbow this morning.

Re: Hunting
Good idea. Make sure you have lots of high powered drugs and maybe some placebos as well....just in case.

Re: Hunting
Lies and bullshit (and fearmongering) aren't weapons. They're tactics; ones that the GOP have enshrined as their modus operandi these last 12 years or so. You'd think they would get it by now......Reality wrote:Col, use BS and lies. This weapon can kill a nation why not a bear?
