  1. If you want a handgun to show your buddies, get a 1911. If you want a handgun to use like a chainsaw, get a Glock.

     

    Amen.  I wear my 1911 to church and my G19 everywhere else.

  2. Thanks much. Didn't start out like it was gonna be a successful hunt. Soon as I hit the woods, had to answer natures call and spooked one off roost. Trekked on to my favorite spot. Then when I loaded shells my spring jammed. Tried to take it apart to repair and spring shot into the dark sky relegating me to a single shot pump. Get set up to call and realize my front sight was AWOL. It's a miracle that I connected. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  3. Depends on what and how packaged. Canned stuff is practically "forever" long as it doesn't rust through or something.

     

    Even unsealed rice, dried beans, pasta edible for years, etc. Course you never see 'em actually cooking anything.

     

    But sure, assuming most of the animals are gone, which they seem to be for the most part, you'd have to start farming at some point. 'Course, that brings up the animals? Did the zeds eat all the farm animals? And all the wild ones too? Saw some dogs in one episode last season eating a still kicking zed, but only dogs I've seen. Assuming there are actually deer and bear and etc, with people gone, they'd actually populate like crazy (except just so many zeds, they get 'em all?)

     

    Etc ad nauseum with the "logical" stuff. I mean, you've got dead human flesh walking around that doesn't rot, so given that, sky's the limit on conjecture I guess. :)

    Speaking of animals and zeds....wouldn't it be interesting to see what is happening at the same time in Alaska?  Zeds and wolves and grizz.....and the Kilchers.  Atz Lee dies from starvation, reanimates, and Eivin and Eve tie him to a stake and use him for grizz bait.

  4. So my question is this: If it's been a year and a half since the zombie plague started, how much more scavenging will the group be able to do? Supplies shouldn't be as readily available as it seems on the show, right? I guess I'm just struggling with the group walking into houses and still finding fully stocked cupboards.

    That's problematic, but not as bad as still encountering lawns that are mowed.

  5. Vest with deployable sash and flashing purple (can't legally do blue) lights sewn into the seams with onboard gell-cell battery pack to go along with the TGO/HCP badge dangling from narc-jewelry around the neck!

  6. I've been doing competition coon hunting since I was little, and so has my dad who is 60 this year. Its not a new trend by any means. And I don't really consider it sick, coyotes are a nuisance and have cost me and my family a lot of money and headache harrassing cattle. Whats the difference in killing 3 or 4 on the weekend and killing 3 or 4 in a competition hunt. Either way the coyote gets killed quickly with a gunshot. Tapatalk ate my spelling

     

    Not to hijack, but coonhunters are a dying breed.  Too many highways and not enough woods left to run hounds these days it seems.  Dad had 9 generations of line bred B&T living at one time once.  He started in 1943 and hunted hard until 2007.  One year in 1974 he was laid off and pelt hunted when a good bore could bring up to $20.  Our whole basement was hung with curing hides.  I can still smell that in my mind.  I bet I scraped my weight in coon fat that year and ate twice my weight in BBQ coon.  Took an old Datsun piled high with hides to Lui Heimansohn and made what he brought home the prior year working.  He was also one of the best competition hunters around...TN state champ, placed high in Little World, and UKC World...spent many a week camped with him in Charlie Brown Park in Flora, IL.  Hunted from Iowa to Virgina and from Wisconsin to Louisiana.  Good freakin' times!

     

    Competition hunting for 'yotes is no less humane than meat hunts, dog trials, letting the hounds fight the occasional coon or bass fishing for that matter.  Hell, it ain't no worse than prairie dog shoots.  They're just big-ass, furry, four-legged cockroaches in my opinion....no way to control 'em, otherwise we wouldn't have open season, no limit, year round.  I can remember when quail and rabbit were plentiful, so I guess that just makes me resent the critters even more.  Not saying anyone should be inhumane, but I say kill every one of the damn things.   

  7. Congrats Rhinestone Rachel!

    Dave -

    We ALL won regardless of your additional generosity...a kid gets to go hunting and with that we all win.

    And without meaning to sound unappreciative of the gift card, cause I am....that was really cool of you and super generous (your type makes me proud to be an outdoorsman) there is likely someone who needs it more than I.

    Gonna pm ya a suggestion privately.

    Thanks again!
