    PFD for 13 Year Old

    I suspect in addition to the height/weight issues that thought was given to the ability of an under 16 to be able to find and pull the inflation cord if it isn't an automatic inflator. It is a situation where panic can kick in if one goes in the water unexpectedly even for an adult. But, I have...

    PFD for 13 Year Old

    Actually, that is not 100% correct. The inflatable vests classified as a Type V pfd are required to be worn to count as a legal pfd. But, there are certain inflatables on the market that actually are classified as a Type 3 PFD for recreational use that don't require it to be worn to "count" as...

    Sell me on why 20ga?

    You don't have a clue about lethality. There is a lot more involved than just pellet count. It is obvious I don't own enough crayons to write it where you could understand. It is past time to add you to the Dumb and Dumber file and get on with the evening.

    Sell me on why 20ga?

    I never argued that the 20 ga. with TSS wasn't a great option. I called out the bullshyt that you posted that it was much more lethal than a 12 ga. and lead. Reading and reasoning definitely aren't your strong points.

    Sell me on why 20ga?

    You obviously aren't smart enough to read. I just told you I killed both of my birds this year with the 20 ga. and plan on making it my main turkey gun. But, continue on with you fanboi comments.

    Sell me on why 20ga?

    But that is not what you posted! If you want to say a 20 ga with the pixie dust will equal a 12 ga with lead, I'll buy that all day long. My two birds both succumbed to a 20 ga 870 with the pixie dust this year. It will be my turkey gun of choice in the coming years because it is lighter and...

    Tennessee public reports

    Our public areas have already been overrun with nonresidents, so there isn't much left to kill.

    In memory of Ruger

    It still isn't really hitting for me. I sat down tonight to tie up some cicada flies, and the first thought in my distracted mind was how many I was going to tie up for Daniel. Then reality hit, and it hurt.

    Big birds

    Sorry, I don't have the picture. But, I have 100% trust in the person that showed it to me. He is a real hunter and not a grip and grinner.

    Big birds

    This appears to be a premier year weight wise for TN birds. I suspect is has to do with the bountiful mast year we experienced in a lot of the state that let the gobblers start gorging in September and kept them on the acorns well into March and April. I am still seeing "good" acorns on the...

    Lifetime license?

    It is a Sportsman License and he is good for all state licenses/permits. It does not cover permits for LBL, and I am not sure about the Gatlinburg City trout permit.

    Wading Elk River for Trout

    That will be a fine flow to wade and fish. The 120 is a 24 hr average. It probably means they are turning off the sluice at night for a while. You are good down there under 400 cfs. The 400 cfs is the same max for wading on the Caney.

    Getting there need gun

    I have read that one of the leading brands is marginal for safety pressure wise. That is a concern for me. But, I would have zero concerns with excess wear and the likelihood of shooting enough of them (due to cost) is almost nil.
