    Honda 4-wheeler issue

    I know several of you guys have worked on these 4-wheelers. 2004 Rancher ES. The last week or so it feels like the brakes are on and I noticed the brake lights are on while I’m riding. I’ve loosened the brake wing nuts at the back axle, but hasn’t solved the problem. Anyone got an idea?

    Inbreeding Question

    I didn't think so and I didn't put too much stock into what the person said. The only thing that got my mind thinking was that this place I hunt is the last "large chunk" of land before it reaches town. So deer numbers are pretty low and not a huge area to roam since it is surrounded by...

    Inbreeding Question

    Someone mentioned this to me and I had never thought about it, but they said “the deer in the area are so small because of inbreeding”. What are the chances and impacts of inbreeding in a wild herd?

    Deer Nose Question

    I milk cows sometimes at a dairy close to home. Anyone who has been around a dairy (or just driven by) knows the strong odor of cow crap. That smell just impregnates in your clothes and never comes all the way out. When it’s really cold I wear some of my cold weather layers that I wear hunting...

    Got to use my new wet tumbler yesterday.

    Background: I’m completely new at reloading. All I’ve done is deprime. So follow up questions. After cleaning and drying I will lube, resize, trim, etc. When it comes time to load with powder and bullet, do you wash again to get rid of lube or go straight to loading?

    Got to use my new wet tumbler yesterday.

    I’d like to add to this. I used my FART for the first time last night. Ran a few hundred 308 bass that I had deprimed. They were pretty dirty. I had some purple power like DaveB mentioned. Used about six squirts of it and hot water. Ran for 2 hours with the SS pins. I rinsed everything with...

    Shooting Tripod

    I've been looking for a shooting tripod for coyote hunting and for my kids to use. I had narrowed it down to this one and I stopped in academy in Knoxville tonight and they had this exact one, so I decided to get it. I checked the price on one of those scanner things and it said $29.99. I took...

    Daughter got her first turkey

    Thanks so much. You described her exactly when talking about conscientious of shot placement and respect for the animal. For example: This past fall we were deer hunting. We had looked at a ton of pictures and I would always ask her “where would you shoot it?” She would answer and we would talk...

    Daughter got her first turkey

    She is using the Stevens 301T with Federal TSS. This bird was about 40 yards. Further than I would have liked, but we had pattered the gun at 40 yards and I knew it could do the job. Attached is a picture of her pattern.
