    Tikka T3X Ember?

    I saw one, and held it, at Adel Outfitters, in Adel GA, this past January (2023). I loved the feel of it.

    Looks like instagram changed their algorithm in the last 24 hours?

    You can watch people getting shot, gruesomely, all day long on IG now. Lots of partial nudity. I don't use IG much but started to browse more lately. I was thinking "this is getting ridiculous". I checked my settings and was surprised to see that it wasn't even set to unrestricted (I don't...

    IRS Delayed the 1099 600$ rule for one year. See article

    While I'm against it all the way around, if you aren't selling the item for a gain, they need to keep their effing hands to themselves.

    Guided or Go Blind in California?

    Guys, I realized that I'm stressing myself trying to squeeze this in last minute. I'd be better off just going to california, completing my work, and do some driving and hiking. Maybe I'll just see some Rios or Merriams (which will be a first for me). I'll get to see some great country and maybe...

    Guided or Go Blind in California?

    Good ideas. Thanks. I had found a list of outfitters a while back. It allowed me to search by county (counties in which the person operated), species they guided for, etc. When I followed the link and searched those people up, I'd say maybe 75% of the results were out of state, some had nothing...

    Guided or Go Blind in California?

    Basically, grab one by the neck and wring it? 😅

    Guided or Go Blind in California?

    I might be flying in to California this Thursday evening, the 27th with only a few days left in the turkey season. I had hoped to be there a few weeks ago but the rain and flooding delayed the work I was going there to do. I thought I'd have to give up on the dream. My plan was to find some BLM...

    Average age of Rokslide folks

    I'd like to map it out, if I could get a list of zip codes - maybe the neighboring zip code, and no names.... You look at this all sorts of ways, depending how much data we could volunteer... regarding our hunting history or whatever.

    Average age of Rokslide folks

    It would be interesting to track it every year and see if that hump shifts older. Let's say the 16-25 segment is on social media more than forums. Maybe they aren't into hunting. Whatever. Will they migrate to a forum in the next 5 years? Or is this the last "Pulse" of solid forum usership...

    Average age of Rokslide folks

    What's funny is I always picture any forum's population to be mostly older than me no matter how old i get! I'm not on the young side of the peak... :)

    Understanding California Public Turkey Options

    So, BLM land is fair game? It's hard to understand coming from a place with no BLM. (eastern NC). There's a spot I'm looking at, for example, where the road skirts the edge of the BLM land. There's a road that eventually gets up into the BLM where there's a small reservoir with two aqueducts...

    Understanding California Public Turkey Options

    I'm looking into this now, as well. I have a short work trip to California coming up and looking to shoot something different than an Eastern. I'll be in the Tulare County area and possibly headed to southwestern AZ during the trip. I might have 1 to 3 extra days. Considering a guide, though...
