  1. CSB time about Lucile’s; I helped build the large oak stand the receptionist use when you walk in circa 2004. We had an old Quonset hut off Foch street that we rented and used as carpenter shop. West 7th was way different back then with the old acme brick building ; Fred’s was going strong and used to have topless postcards in the mens bathroom
  2. Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins
  3. I would pay $16.95 for a whole bottle of Basil Hayden's much less a 2 oz pour.
  4. I’ll check out TFO; thanks a lot for the suggestions!

  6. I’m going to start fly fishing (again) this year and wanted to get y’all’s opinion on some solid gear for mostly trout. I did some backpacking back in the day and had a cheap bass pro backpacking rod but like to get something nicer. Heres what I’m thinking so far: -freshwater fishing -6 wt rod? - orvis clear water? Any suggestions on local companies or am I heading in the right direction? Also, is YouTube a great place to learn or lessons etc?
  7. Stupid question since we are talking about aggy but what are the medals possibly for? How does one earn said medal?
  8. I'd add that a great pair of bino's or a spotting scope would be on top of my list. Living vicariously through you as that is a bucket list hunt
  9. Congratulations! Love the look of those. Did you have any trouble with the dealer? I've been hearing horror stories of waiting for a year or more and then when the Bronco arrives the dealer is throwing on a $25 - $30K ADM.
  10. Awesome, the only thing I did with my old jeep that seemed to help was swapped out the factory carb with an aftermarket kit by Weber (I think). I could never get the factory one dialed in. This was about 10 years ago so take it for what it’s worth
  11. I did that hike about 15 years ago and it was just absolutely amazing. If you’re scared of heights the 7 mile mark is where a lot of people turn around. I remember seeing that trail for the first time and thought there is no way in hell I could walk on that. If you take it slow it’s not bad. It’s totally worth it but it’s a bit sketchy Have a great time and take some good pictures. Also, my time on the trail was in 2006 so it might have changed since then.
  12. Help me spend some money surly. I received a $225 gift card to tecovas. I know they aren’t the highest quality boot but are they worth buying a pair or should I just order one of their leather travel bags? I have two pair of ostrich already as well several other just regular boots/work boots. Appreciate the recs
  13. Spent the weekend out at the ranch and just got back in. Shot two more hogs and saw a bunch of deer. It was an amazing morning this morning as the wind shifted and the rut seemed to be full on in NW Jack county. It was like a switch flipped from last night to this morning; had multiple bucks chasing hard
  14. FYI, there are multiple bottles of OWA 107 and eagle rare at the Specs off of 35 in Lewisville. Just bought a 107 for $47
  15. Shot this good sized boar from the veranda at 310 yards. We are just covered up in them. Saw them almost every sit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. We had a great opening weekend at our place; two hogs, one coyote and a great 7 point cull. Herbie, I feel your pain with young deer getting shot especially if they have been discussed. Luckily, we have a good core group of like minded hunters and we all let some really good looking younger deer pass. The 7 that was shot was almost 160lbs on the hoof and at least a 3.5 year old. Perfect deer to take out as he wasn’t getting any better and have much better deer in his same age class Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Haha; this is just a large platform (uncovered) we built on top of a hill to overlook a food plot and pretty country; we call it the veranda. The feeder is 310 yards away so this is our area to "hunt" where we put on music, talk, drink bourbon etc. The screws in question are like that so we can throw a camo netting to help conceal it when the leaves fall. I'll see if I can find some other photos
  18. Missed a big boar right at dark but hard to beat these views and spending time with my brother and dad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I'm heading out this weekend as well. Going to get the feeders topped off; get everything cleaned; drink some bourbon and hopefully kill a pig or 3.
  20. I've used Messina's and had good luck with them as well.
  21. Let’s go! Been out here since 6:15 talking crap and kicking ass Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. That was outside Lufkin on a buddies family place; all local birds but pretty shot out by the time we left.
  23. Few things better than listening to the horns on the radio; drinking a cold beer and watching a good dog work! We were both pretty rusty but got back into the swing of things. Proud of my little Boykin; retrieved 23 dove and 2 pigeons
  24. I’ve been debating pulling the trigger on the front bumper and sliders from coastal off-road. Good reviews and seem to be good people it they stew weld together kits https://www.coastaloffroad.com/product-page/65-weld-on-rock-slider-kit/
  25. Ida Claire (sp) in north Dallas/Addison used to do some pappy “happy hours” pre-COVID. Not sure if they still do but they have a pretty decent selection
