    Kubota vs John Deere

    I couldn't remember the name of the company that makes the tiedowns. Here they are. I have nothing bad to say about this kit below so far...worth ever penny. I did switch out the axle straps in the kit with their lasso axle straps though for no difference in cost...

    Kubota vs John Deere

    I have a small Kubota LX that I really like so far. I don't know enough people with a JD or New Holland to compare though. My favorite implement so far is a stump bucket-grapple which requires a 3rd function switch on the front. You can do a lot with this. Things that are nice about a...

    Composting Toilet

    Not sure if these would be the best for camping?...but I am going to try one in a building/cabin that has water and a grey line drainage without sewer. Being able to separate/dump the urine is apparently a key feature in making these work well. https://thronecompostingtoilet.com

    Wyoming Corner Hopping

    I am very pro property rights...but both for private and public property. If I am ever on a jury in a corner crossing case, I will always find for the corner crosser if they cross without damaging property, and will find against any landowner, whether private or federal, who tries to intimidate...

    Just when you’ve thought you’ve heard of everything

    Maybe someone needs to create a market for potential wildlife advancements, outside of the dangerous, idiotic things that the govt often funds....or a person just needs to use "climate change" and other key words in the govt grant request and actually grow franken sheep on the govt dime as...

    Just when you’ve thought you’ve heard of everything

    Once every >than 100 yr pandemics just keep popping up regularly now around research facilities in the 20th and 21st centuries. Maybe that problem is not due to game farms? Again, not promoting it, but it sure seems that 1,000's of years of old dudes running game farms (mink, canines, horses...

    Ryan's new binos:

    I don't know. Crocs to me are all about function over form...what is more manly than that. These binos seem to scream out the opposite message, "buy me if you rock a man bun"...not that there is any thing wrong with man buns of course.

    Just when you’ve thought you’ve heard of everything

    I do not necessarily support this, but I have to say, this seems to greatly pale in importance to what biotech companies are doing right now that could not only create millions of times greater havoc in nature, but also destroy the human race. Not only is genetic modification of food crops...

    Mike Tyson VS Jake Paul

    Tyson had one of the most brutal left hooks ever, so if it is only half of the power and quickness that it once was, he could knock out Jake early. But 58 year old legs are not 30 year old legs, and Jake is a decent boxer with a good right hand, rangy, and is young with better foot speed. I...

    Newberg says a $40 elk tag (or whatever it cost) is a $25,000 elk tag for residents.

    If you choose to live out of state, you can bitch and complain, but really that should have little to no effect on things in the end. As an out of state hunter, not purchasing expensive tags would speak loudest. I enjoy visiting Montana from out of state to hike and hunt. Thank you Montana...

    “Backfire” hunting challenge fail

    I don't have much shooting experience, but understand & endorse most of the advice & comments above, except for the more vague comments about poor shooting form that don't include specific details regarding the poor form. I just don't know enough to look at him and determine what all is the...

    PSA - Don't be a jackass out there

    I must be getting too old. When did it become a major crime for a couple of young bored guys in the middle of nowhere to roll a rock down an avalanche shoot that they can see the bottom of? Immature maybe, sure. I think that I am more worried about the Karens that would call the authorities...

    Cheap Titanium Stove

    Yeah, if the top arrestor plugs up, then you can modify it, or remove it and change the lower pipe damper into an arrestor. I have never found the pipe stabilizer lines to be much help, especially with a good taught tent, since the lines don't really hold the pipe down. If the pipe is attached...

    Cheap Titanium Stove

    I had to make my own franken stoves in the past from parts from different manufactures, because they all had good parts and others which sucked in practice...especially when used with bad wood gathered from a backpacking site. A couple of things to consider: The stoves with the damper in the...

    Climate change...deer numbers

    When too much research money assigned by the gov't goes toward studies and dept's that must perpetuate the narrative of climate change being the most deleterious factor for animals, then you get a bunch of repetitive useless crap results like this above, which don't advance the ball on actually...

    I dont understand the hostility towards wolf reintroduction in Colorado

    I don't know what all of the answers are, but Colorado is on the same path as Washington State. Although introducing wolves in the fashion that CO is doing is at best misguided, that will be nothing compared to the coming multi-pronged assault on hunting as a tool for conservation and game...

    Who else has caught the Rona?

    Final update: Talked with this lady this AM. O2 sat is 94% at home on supplemental O2 at 1 L/min by NC and she reports feeling great. She will start a slow wean of her steroids now. To me some lessons from this story is that hospital protocols (that have often come about more due to...

    Who else has caught the Rona?

    Just posting this because I can't remember this being brought up previously and more positive data continues to come out now regarding aspirin related to covid 19 prevention even, let alone the decreased disease severity relationship. As with all things, discuss with your doctor first to ensure...
