After some deliberation today with the wife, I agreed to change how I comb my hair. I call it Honky Goombah, but it's probably better than what everyone else would call White Power Racist Buzz Cut.
....and then I'll write a book after that titled "tweets that got your ass kicked".
Tyrus on Gutfeld 10/1/21
If you've never given Gutfeld a chance, you might find it pretty damn funny.
I have.
Dog hacked up my arm again today.
Nice to know ya can count on something. :)
Make sure you're sending him gutless field quarter vids. No reason to gut them.Quote:

I could be swayed otherwise though. Field dressing an animal the first few times is a total mess, and if you've got no starting point, then maybe it doesn't matter which you learn first.
My primary reason for not doing it is it wastes a lot of meat. But for someone's first hunt, and on a doe antelope, no big deal. A lot of the stuff I would save on other animals isn't big enough to salvage on something that small.
What meat is wasted?
The only part that's hard to get to (as in easy to hit the stomach) from the top is the tenderloins but, like you say, if you know how...
The ribs, the neck, the heart. No one ever takes any of that in any of the videos I've ever seen. You could of course, I just never see anyone do that.
Venison ribs make good oriental ribs.
On a smaller animal sure.Quote:

This is one of the best I've seen for an Elk.

I saw 5 artist renditions for replacing the American Flag today. AYFKM?
If these libtard fucksticks change our flag, I'll line my entire property with stars and stripes and rebel flags. Assholes.
I need to watch more of Newbergs's stuff. I listened to his podcast a bit, but couldn't get into it as much. I always liked the Outdoor Edge gutless how to video.Quote:

That's a good video - even with the dim lighting, he explains things pretty well. My 8-year old and I just watched it together :DQuote:

I've been doing a modified gutless by first skinning and removing the legs, then removing the entrails to get the heart, liver and tenderloins. It keeps the meat clean of offal and gutting is easier with the legs removed. Whenever possible I keep the backbone and backstraps intact to cleanly butcher it at home. I hang up the boned out carcass, ribs , spine & legs for the birds and virtually all winter resident birds use it through December.
Still hunting pronghorn on small public land properties in NW CO. Had an amazing two days hiking ~7 miles yesterday and ~4.5 miles today. The properties are walk in only. With hunting pressure the pronghorn vamoose by the end of opening day moving west through private land to south of Craig for the winter. Kinda sucks for a budget hunter but I've been lucky more than not. There are no big herds here like in Wyoming.
Yesterday, I stalked a toad of a buck herding a harem of 16 does. Round and round they moved about, always 800 to 1200+ yards away. The terrain was too open without little hills or other features to stalk close. But it was a great show of pronghorn herd behavior with the buck chasing and redirecting any wandering doe to keep the group tight and moving in the right direction. Man, I wanted to connect with that buck. Had him in my sights for long periods but too far to make an ethical shot given the breeze and uncertain distance. After a while someone took a pot shot at one of the does and the group moved out of the area, surely until next spring. Migration is like that. Get 'em while you can or they're gone.
I explored two new public state trust land areas today but one was devoid of pronghorn and the other too difficult to access and get an animal out. Back to site one.
Camping out of my truck I got a much needed bath from the solar shower bag, ready to go again tomorrow.
The morning migration of Sandhill Cranes and Canada Geese has been spectacular with thousands of birds flying overhead at 50 to 100 feet. Today, I watched three bald eagles hunting rabbits. The cottontails here are huge, several times larger than our little mountain cottontails. I've pushed out three and one I first thought was a mule deer bounding through the sage. And they are beautiful.
Saw a mink roadkill and wanted to pick it up for the museum but didn't have a good way to dee[ freeze and transport it.

Properly cleaned up a few shotguns today, it was overdue.
Still can't clear a pistol with this fukin cast though.
You're suppose to clean them ?Quote:

I haven't cleaned a gun in the last 3 years, outside my carry ones. Right now it will be a good weeks worth of cleaning. So i keep ignoring it.Quote:

It was a bit grimy, but it wasn't having any issues.
I'm busy rusting my second "stainless" M&P right now down here in LA.
Lol. If you were a superhero your power would be spraying some sort of acidic fluid out of your body.Quote:

Well, I still think you are more caustic than the average person.
