    Yamaha or Honda ATV Recommendations

    Honda Foreman owner here. Between my hunting/farming buddies we have had a lot. Great dealer that keeps us in tires and fluids. The only issue that I have seen (since the '85 Big Red days) has been a couple of starters and batteries. Change the oil and go. I still have a 2006 Foreman (that my...

    What time do all you geezers get up in the morning?

    Guess that I'm following the norm here.... 4:30 - 5:00. Of course, on the other end of the day, after a hard day's work, I'm heading to bed by 9:00.

    How does your job prepare you for the mountain?

    As a house painter, I climb ladders and carry ladders, boxes of paint and other objects all day every day. If I don't make time to work out 4 days a week, I can't even begin to climb the hills out west. Imagine climbing three flights of stairs, carrying a 50# box wearing a backpack loaded with...

    Talk me out of, or into a canoe

    Have had both canoes and kayaks. Been dumped out of both. Enjoyed them both. Still have kayaks. Sold last canoe during Covid at twice what I paid for it. Sounds like you need that canoe, living so close to water.

    Maven RS.5 - low light performance?

    I've only used an RS.5 for a year and have had no issues with it. It isn't as good as the Swarovskis that I have at dark thirty but for the price I think that it's a great option. I like the cross hair as it isn't as busy as many are today. I would/will buy another.

    MEAT your maker products

    I have had the #22 - 1HP grinder, with the foot pedal for several years and I really like it. I only do 5 or 6 deer a year, but it makes the work go super easy and fast.

    Masculinity and Caliber Choice

    Over my years guiding elk hunters, I was much happier to see a hunter come in to camp with their beat-up old .270 or .30-06 then I was seeing them come in to camp with their shiny, new magnum. Before our hunters rode into the backcountry, we took them to the range. We had a big hunter, (6'2" -...
