    Hunting And Fishing Thread!?!

    Last winters otter and beaver trappings from my farm lakes/ponds just came back from the tanner Goal = enough for a nice blanket. Otters ranged in weight from 22 to 29 pounds...state record is 32 pounds here in Missouri. Beaver (destructive critters!) are much harder to trap - they are very wary...

    Hunting And Fishing Thread!?!

    A guy I work with was helping a friend do a European mount. When they were getting ready to skin the head, my friend noticed what he thought was a pus sack - infection of some sort. It wasn't! It was a third eye - complete with socket. He said the mount looks like an alien with antlers!

    Selling a pistol, not so easy...Thoughts

    I once sold two shotguns to Bass Pro Shops. They were very fair with me. Both shotguns (they were in very good condition) fetched 90 cents on the dollar of brand new price. Shotguns are not a semi-auto handgun...but it's probably worth looking into - phone call at least.

    Hunting And Fishing Thread!?!

    Yesterday's hunt was to get big ole nanny does...you know...the ones that have twins. Trying to reduce the mouths we feed. Probably wasted effort, but if we don't do it, then there would be no effort at all. No luck - a few tiny does and a lot of next-year-bucks. Yesterday was the single...

    It's time for a 4 day weekend, let's see those cocktails!

    I am a bourbon fan and I am also an engineer in construction. Many times I get gifted a nice bottle of bourbon for quickly solving a job-site problem and the rest of the time I spend my own money. My most expensive bottle is Old Fitzgerald 17…very good! One of my most fave top shelf is Rebel...

    Barn breakfast on the wood-stove is always a treat. Loaf of bread and a lotta pork! The wood stove fire with the bacon and sausage smell is divine!

    @Fueling Around @chilerelleno @zwiller Sausage is what is missing! Sausage (and bacon) makes everything better. Thanks for the input and the recipes!

    Wanting a new turkey-dressing recipe (not stuffing)

    @radioguy - Your recipe is pretty close to what we make now...I was thinking of adding some chopped/shredded (neck) meat from the giblets but the sage sausage idea from above sounds even better.
