    deer season started yesterday,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    In South Dakota the game department receives no general funds. Their entire budget is made up of fees collected from hunters, fisherman, and campers together with the states share of the tax levied by the feds on guns, ammo, fishing equipment and so on. This prevents the politicians from...

    deer season started yesterday,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    You are lucky. Here in South Dakota a land owner with at least 160 acres he/she physically farms can apply for a deer tag for each person in the household-man, wife, two children over the age of 10 living at home equals four tags, for example. However, you have to pay for them @ $40 for each...

    How do you eat them

    Sounds to me like you had a feast. After my colonoscopy all I got was a cup of coffe and a thin slice of dry banana bread. Under the circumstances of not eating for over 24 hours, it tasted GREAT. Getting old ain't for sissies is it?

    deer season started yesterday,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    Man this post seems to be getting out of hand. I never knew hunting regulations could be so controversial. I realize every state has some silly (dumb/stupid) rules when it comes to hunting and fishing regs but I believe that if all aspects of the sport were completely unregulated we would have...

    Open Rear Sight Conversion to Peep

    Thanks. My kids and grandkids hunt and know firearms so I am hopeful my guns won't end up in a pawn shop for pennies on the dollar.

    Open Rear Sight Conversion to Peep

    First I sanded the washer and then attached it with two part epoxy glue. Then painted it with flat black paint.

    deer season started yesterday,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    I am a little confused. What is a "crass deer tag"? Is that just for transportation only or are you only allowed to kill 3 bucks and 5 does in the entire season? Maybe you are just being critical of the fact that you have to buy a tag to shoot a deer? Here in South Dakota you need a tag for...

    deer season started yesterday,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    Baiting deer is illegal here in South Dakota, so I don't do it. However, before you criticize hunting methods others use because they don't meet your ethical standards, you should consider their situation. I am 74 years old. I have PAD in my legs. Walking much over 100 yards without resting...

    Open Rear Sight Conversion to Peep

    My 74 year old eyes just cannot properly focus on a deer and a front sight and a rear sight at the same time. At least not well enough to hit anything. As a result, I have switched to peep sights and with a light gathering (TruGlo) front sight. I recently completed a Lyman GPR (Pedersoli)...

    Difference between #11 CCI caps and Magnum CCI caps.

    My son has an Investarms Lyman Great Plains Rifle that he shoots 777 in and it has shown a tendancy to not always go off with standard percussion caps. Switched to CCI Magnum caps and it goes bang everytime. As a result, that is all I use myself. Never had a problem with the "magnum" cap and...

    Priming Horn and Small Tin Containers

    Sounds interesting but I would think the bluing/browning might hold up better than the use of paint. I like the idea of sandblasting them as prep work rather than torching them.
