    New Turkey Gun.......gimme your thoughts

    I bought a Franchi Affinity 3 20 gauge compact last year, ya know, for the kids to use. That gun with some #9 TSS and a Carlson choke is just nasty. I've got other guns but it's now the first one I grab for the kids or myself. Light, balanced, and compact. I love that gun. Plenty of cheaper...

    2024 New Mexico Draw Results

    I may have struck out but a fellow Rokslider and hunting partner drew a really quality muzzleloader bull tag. Looks like I'll be on pack-out duty for this one, which is just fine by me.

    2024 Turkey Meat Pole

    Both my kids got a bird over the past two weekends. 2 hunts, 2 birds. My daughter’s hunt was absolutely intense. That bird was so close he about stepped on us!

    Portable Camp Stoves at Lowes

    I really think it'll be a perfectly serviceable stove with(or maybe without) a tweak or two. I'd dealt with the stupid round titanium offerings in the past and this looks way nicer for use in our 12 man tipi. Heck, it might be enough stove to use in the wall tent instead of lugging around the...

    Portable Camp Stoves at Lowes

    I was thinking the same. It would be a really quick and easy tweak.

    Portable Camp Stoves at Lowes

    Got mine today. For $50 it’s a no brainer. Decent quality and a well laid out kit. If it needs a longer or wider pipe that should be an easy tweak. It’s really seems quite good for the money. I’ll certainly need to burn it in and test it before I take it on a hunt but I have high hope for it.

    Hornady Bore Driver Eld-X Range Report

    I had a chance to finally sight in my new MR-X with the 340 Bore Drivers. I shot 12 rounds, 7 with 70 grains of Blackhorn weighed on a scale. Once I had the gun sighted in I tried 80 grains of powder. 50 yards open sights. Here’s the speeds and final group. If I draw my CO or NM tag I’ll...

    Portable Camp Stoves at Lowes

    I ordered one of each also. I've been looking for a non-titanium stove option for our 12 man tipi and that price is just too good. Some of the negative reviews were about poor welds. We fab tons of metal here at work so if these stoves need a little beef I can easily tweak them.

    Kids First Knife

    I bought my 10 year old one of these this past year. He likes to field dress deer so I wanted something fixed blade, decent quality, and not expensive. I think it was $25. Heck, that's about all the knife I'd ever need too, but I have more expensive taste...

    Hot Sauce Recommendation?

    My Arizona friends turned me on to Arizona Gunslinger many years ago. It's my favorite. Great flavor, not too hot. I order it online: https://azgunslinger.com/store/pepper-sauces/

    So what cell phone did you finally buy your teenage daughter?

    This is true. My kids get around stuff on phones and iPads pretty easily. The best thing to do is limit their use and set some firm ground rules. At minimum keeping them off social media as much as I’m able and limited the time the phone can be in their hands. Last night I forgot to take my...
