    PSA.... Check your local Walmart.

    I don’t remember when Mississippi legalized scoped single shot cartridge rifles (45/70, .35 Whelen, and other calibers) for primitive weapons season but when they did muzzleloading supplies went away not just in Walmart but everywhere. The rifles that look like your first little single shot...

    Back Stop

    How much are y’all paying for cross ties? Here they more than doubled since COVID and are $24.95 each now and you have to pick through them to find any decent ones. Lemme tell ya, picking through crossties is a b!¥€#!!

    The Revenant.

    Maybe the armorer for that movie was smoking what they are saying Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was on the Rust set

    Cornbread?

    My grandmother (who moved south from Illinois) and my mother (from Arkansas) both made fantastic cornbread, the taste and texture of the 2 were different, but the same every time and neither one of them used a recipe or measure, Like shooting a gun, I guess it was muscle memory from doing it so...

    Oops... bought a non firing Replica

    My daddy told me Education is expensive, sometimes it takes $$$ and sometimes it takes bandages and sometimes it takes both. Probably best to stop at $$$

    Best Friends

    This is Millie, the last of my 3 American Bulldog security force. Crack heads and gangs have taken this town and my girls kept us safe when we lived in town. Now we have moved out on the edge of town her job is easier, good thing because she is 13 years old and has cancer and arthritic hips that...

    It happened again today at the public range...........

    On the rare occasions when I get to shoot, 99% of that time I shoot alone I was on a turn row off of a road that the county had abandoned (no longer maintained). I had on hearing protection so I didn’t hear 2 sheriff’s deputies pull up behind me until they got out. They said that they had...

    Building short N.W. Trade Gun ...

    Mr. Rob, you remind me of Mama making biscuits. You can do this $!!’t in your sleep and it turns out beautifully every time. Your ride alongs that you post are just plain fun because your craftsmanship is only outshined by your passion.

    What might I have

    I don’t know, I’ve gotta go with Mr. BS on the swimming fish look. Could tell more if I could get up close and personal with it. Interesting to say the least

    The Words We Use and How They Define Us

    I never heard harvest, processed, etc.used in reference to game animals until I got on Internet forums. We always killed, gutted, skinned, quartered, and cut up or butchered the animal.

    Hunt for Arrowheads

    we found a lot that were not flaking as planned either due to skill, tools or material. The Harahee blade (pointed on both ends) in post #50 has a bit of unruly material on the opposite side. The craftsman that made it worked it down fairly well but it has a hump on the side not showing that if...

    Hunt for Arrowheads

    Definition of disappointment: seeing a perfect base sticking out of the dirt, grabbing it, expecting some resistance when you pull the rest of it out only to find out it is broken and there is no more. 😢 We always hunted agricultural fields so we had “heartbreak aplenty”. Tractors and plows...

    Hunt for Arrowheads

    There’s big money in fake artifacts. Ethical flint knappers, potters and sculptors sign their work so that they are recognized as art and not artifacts. Before the antiquities laws there was a man here that dug a burial site over by the Mississippi River. He had a pot shaped like a bear’s head...

    Hunt for Arrowheads

    My eyes aren’t good enough to tell if that is a nice ovate blade or a preform for something like a Snyders point. Indians would go to a source for lithic material and make preforms to bring home and finish. That way it was less to carry because most of the unnecessary rock was removed and also...
