      Help me age this buck

      I hunt a small piece of property near daleville. Two years ago I watched a deer about that size make it all the way to Christmas eve. I had numerous opportunities to shoot him and so did my brother in law. We both agreed not to take him so we didn't but on Christmas eve on my way to my parents...

      Recommend a caliber for deer

      I personally would stick with a 44 mag but that's me. Now that it's been a few years of them being legal in IN, I have gotten comfortable with it. I have hunted quite a few states for deer and only out west in the bare plains have I found it necessary for a long range shot. I like the up close...

      Starve Hollow Lake

      I used to hunt down that way and if I remember correctly, the dnr drained that a few years back. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure. Best of luck.

      Bass fishing lure?

      I have used Kelly lures before. They have always produced good fish for me but I don't use them as much as I used too. I fish a lot of tournaments and I always find myself using more finesse techniques. Another brand you may want to look into is poor boy baits. The owners are from the Syracuse...

      Coyote Hunting Advice

      A few years back I went after coyotes pretty hard after deer season and had some luck but they are a hard animal to hunt. I always found having two people works well. One needs a mid range rifle such as a 223 or something like that and the other needs a 12 guage with a heavy load. I say this...

      Hockey fans at INGO

      I'm just glad to see the sport come back. I know the nhl especially in certain franchise locations had a hard run for a long time but it seems to me that it is gaining support again. Even some of the small audience clubs seem to have a pretty good base being built.

      Hockey fans at INGO

      I watch all of the blackhawks games but I am also a flyers fan. My sister is thier nutritionist so I have to be a supporter.

      Natural Gas Generator

      I am an electrician and if I had to recommend one I would say go with natural gas. Propane is impractical if you don't have a large source. If you have natural gas in your area do it. I would recommend sticking with a good name brand generator like kohler, generac, or guardian. You also want to...

      Shooting on private property with covenants.

      My fear wouldn't be about if you can right now, it would be about what your neighbors do if you do it. They will probably form a hoa and not allow you to speak your concerns. Then everything you do will create a new rule making what you've done wrong. I live in an hoa now and although its lax on...

      Looking at buying a house, pending home inspection - one issue rebar/concrete

      In my opinion it was left like that after construction was finished. If I had to guess, it probably got hit by something since then. Possibly a lawn mower. Depending on where it is, it might have been used to tie in a possible patio or deck. I would cut it off with a torch or sawzall and patch...

      This guy is nuts, and he was running free!

      I vote sentencing him to death and actually do it. Whats the point of keeping him alive.

      Group buy of 3-D printers

      I would love to have one. Just think of everything you could do with one. Every time something plastic breaks all you would have to do is print another one.

      Dick's and the great boycott of 2013

      Dicks has turned into a glorified clothing store. I buy everything I possibly can from local shops and what they decided to do with the AR issue wont change the way I shop.

      Shooting Fish

      I was up fishing Wawasee last weekend and I got to see some of the boats they had for a bowfishing tournament. I actually didn't know what it was at first. The guy had about a 22 foot skiff with a 250 Yamaha on it, so it caught my eye. I walked over to the ramp and talked to him and he...
