    Meeting the In-Laws.....

    Last night i went to hear a MD professor talk about intelligent design in the birth process. it was absolutely fascinating. The discussion was about how the human heart could not evolve. Things like laminar (sp) blood flow (different oxygenated blood and less oxygenated blood flowing different directions to different places at the same time in the same vein) the development of vessels to the lungs during the birth process, development of heart valves etc. couldn't evolve. They have to be there in place fully functioning or life ends instantaneously. Last month i went to hear a geologist talk about the 1 year development of the grand canyon. It was fascinating. So, i'm a believer. I choose the Baptist theology, which pretty much says you can't force someone to believe. Kids included. So, man, i wish you guys would believe. For me, it's so clear. For others, i guess not. I guess i became a believer because of this one fact, I refuse to believe that you and I are accidents. And if we are here on purpose, i had to find out what that purpose was. But it's true, if you try to force someone to believe, they really don't believe. It's voluntary or it's fake.
  2. first time i've ever seen a sock monkey hat on the forum. congrats!
  3. it's like this, if jeremy at chasin' a dream outfitters doesn't have it, and i can't find it at a yardsale, i don't need it. I routinely take me kids to bass pro, take advantage of every free thing they have, and walk out the door and don't spend a dime. they don't need my money.

    Responsible Gun Owner

    all true. my sister in laws brother died at the ripe old age of 12 after a gun accident in the home. he's not coming back. On the other hand, my neighbor almost died because he couldn't get his safe open to get to his ammo while my other neighbor was swinging an ax at him. So you have to find a way to be ready AND keep children positively safe at the same time.

    Stuff handed down from parents/grandparents.......

    Grandpas scabbard circa early 1900s. He shot a hole in it to keep it from filling with water. I'm trying to get my hands on the .06 that went with it. It hangs in my sons room.

    Tree stand help

    problem with tree stands is the wind. when it shifts, you're a hung bunny. but other than that, i like 'em. i l get the cheapest lock on one's i can, and bring a pillow for comfort. that way if it get's stolen, i'm not losing too much money.

    Help on AZ strip info

    that would be a world record, if it's typical. i'd like to see some pics of that deer. I'm tagged out already, but my goal is to get a 13 a or b rifle tag, and go after them with my bow. I'm eyeing that 206 mark. I have 5 bp's, if i do hunters safety, i'll have 7 by the end of the year, so i probly still have a bit of a wait, so i'll whack coues till then.

    Donald Sterling....

    what a circus. i haven't watched an nba game in years, and this will drive me further away. as the fox news reporter was saying, it's ok for an an nba player to beat his wife to a bloody pulp, but mention a racial comment in public....that's the unpardonable sin. it's more of the pot calling the kettle, er, uh, a different color....

    Pull a ford or dodge out of a ditch

    it is a great truck. i hate to sell it. it's perfect for firewood and hunting. just nothing to look at. i've got 3 vehicles in the driveway, something's got to go. my auto insurance guy is smiling ear to ear everytime he see's me coming. i'm going to sell this and my wife's minivan and hopefully put those monies towards a family/hunt vehicle, like a tahoe or a 4runner. so i can go grocery shopping and hunt out of the same vehicle. also wanting a small trailer to put my quad and dead deer or elk in, so i don't have to try to stuff it in the back of the new suv with the kids.

    Broad heads for elk, 2014

    I'll probably give the Ulmer Edge a try as well. Being a newer Mechanical/broadhead it's hard to find a ton of solid information to back them up. The things I like about this broadhead -Field point accuracy to 100 yds -Apply set screw to broadhead and use for practice -Can hit at an angle without deflection because blade swivels. -2 Blades swivel around bones (ribs) to help penetration -1 1/2" cutting diameter, seems perfect -2 blades lock on contact (turns into broadhead on contact). Blades won't unlock (close) after contact -Blades are sharp on backside, to continue cutting if arrow were to fall out -Solid broadhead tip for bone What I wish this broadhead had -3 or 4 blades -Unsure about blades swivel and not swiveling back out because of meat, fur, bone causing blade not to swivel back out. This could possibly turn this broahead into a one blade after contact with bone. Overall it seems like a great broadhead besides a couple concerns. Can anyone who has used the Ulmer Edge give additional information. i just killed a deer in january with one. it was a 24 yard shot, and the broadhead was sunken 4 inches into a rotten ponderosa pine tree after the clean pass thru. The broadhead still appears to be usable. i found true field point accuracy. i made absolutely no tuning adjustments, and shot money. The blades deployed flawlessly, and lock open. They cannot get stuck inside the ferrule, because the hinge action forces the blade to swing back out after contact with bone. the kid who works for me just killed a bull last september with the ulmer edge at 74 yards. He shot a double lung and the broadhead was lodged in a rib on the opposite side. bull went down fast. hope that helps.

    Broad heads for elk, 2014

    think i'm going with ulmer edges. just screw 'em on and hunt, no foolin' around with tuning. also, safety is the biggest issue. blades are completely encosed, so, to me, it seems safer. less chance of lacerating myself 10 miles from cell signal.
