    Back surgery experience

    Surgeons are going to want to operate to fix issues but once you get cut on you can't go back and do it over again. Imaging might show something that is causing you pain but it could also be showing you something that is completely unrelated to the pain you are feeling. For example, there have...

    Texas school shooting

    It is an incredibly complex issue and I guarantee the founding fathers were not contemplating people using firearms to go on mass school shootings on a regular basis when they were writing the constitution. I would hope our highly esteemed founding fathers would have had some better ideas other...

    Texas school shooting

    Not sure what any of that has to do with the fact that our public school system is drastically underfunded. But no, let's leave it up to the local municipalities to raise funds for highly trained, armed security that could actually have stopped something like this. If teachers have to take money...

    Because if there's one thing we do really well in this country it's funding schools appropriately...

    Texas school shooting

    Thoughts and prayers are clearly not working so how about our politicians do their jobs and come up with something that will actually help. I don't have the answers but I am not paid to come up with the answers. If you are on the side that thinks only a good guy with a gun will stop a bad guy...

    Vasectomy

    Interesting you say this because I had basically no issue during the whole procedure but afterward when I went to get up I almost passed out. Not something normal for me but it was a pretty intense feeling. Just sat down for a bit and it was fine but it was definitely like my body knew something...

    Covid got me good

    It's almost like the government doesn't already have physical activity guidelines and nutritional guidelines according to you. They actually do have those things, promote them, and they are really pretty solid but people ignore them. Just like doctors tell patients they should lose weight...

    Vasectomy

    Had mine done a few years ago. Super easy procedure, numb you up and before you know it they are done and I drove myself home. The worst part is the numbing shots. Just be sure to wear a jock strap after and ice the entire weekend after you get it done (assuming you do it on a Friday like most...

    To bidet or not to bidet...

    I got one of the basic tushy ones and used it for a bit when I first got it but then it just became more of a pain than anything. Makes your toilet harder to clean and even though it gets you clean, you still have to dry all that water so that means either using about the same amount of toilet...

    Colonoscopy....

    I'd recommend just getting the colonoscopy. If anything pops up then you'll need one anyway and sometimes it's a pain to get the insurance to agree if you did the fecal test. Also, a colonoscopy is one of the few procedures that can lower your risk of colon cancer. If they see a polyp they can...

    Lower back disc pain

    Fair enough, I agree with your basic assessment. I will always think chiropractic adjustments is pure snake oil though. Unless the research one day reverses that thinking but currently there is nothing to suggest anything of the sort. The placebo effect is one hell of a drug though.

    Lower back disc pain

    Considering the entire "chiropractic medicine" practice is snake oil and not evidence based I have no problem disparaging the profession. There are actually some good chiros out there but they do not practice chiropractic care like spinal manipulation, they simply got their degree to have access...

    Lower back disc pain

    I think the best thing for back pain is to get stronger. A stronger back will be just that, stronger, and less susceptible to injury. People with back pain shy away from exercises like deadlifts when that is what they really need to be doing. I really wouldn't even bother with stretching, it...

    Pop up blind for rifle white tail hunting advice

    Sure did, worked like a charm in fact. Funny enough I only started hunting during whitetail season but I hunt in the Texas hill country where axis are relatively common and ended up getting two axis bucks. Not the biggest antlers I’ve seen out there but body wise they sure are a lot bigger than...

    Pop up blind for rifle white tail hunting advice

    Great tips, thanks! Definitely planning on setting it out beforehand, going to see what stakes come with it first to see if I need to upgrade (probably will) because I’d hate to get out there opening weekend and it be gone lol.

    Pop up blind for rifle white tail hunting advice

    Definitely. Ordered the one posted above and got a swivel chair to go with it. I’ll have a tripod with hog saddle and I will be doing lots of practice from that position/in the blind.

    Pop up blind for rifle white tail hunting advice

    You’re the man, thanks for the great recommendations. This place never ceases to impress me with the great advice. Shots are going to be sub 200 so this should be a solid setup.

    Pop up blind for rifle white tail hunting advice

    Man, that looks like a pretty sweet setup to me. I don’t mind paying a little more for something that sure looks to be a lot better than the alternatives out there. So you don’t feel the need for anything sturdier to rest your gun in than those windows?

    Pop up blind for rifle white tail hunting advice

    Not nearly as cool as you back country hunters but I’m going to be doing some white tail hunting that is basically sitting in a blind until one pops out. I won’t have a permanent blind available this year and so I was thinking of getting a pop up blind but I’m completely clueless on what a good...

    Nightforce ATACR 4-16 F1 or F2?

    I have the F1 and took most of my shots last season around 6x or so and had no issues with the reticle
