    Well since my last confession I have sinned. I have purchased a double rifle in 450/400 and while this is on the smaller end it has fueled my addiction to new heights and I am now considering finding a double in 500 nitro or larger. May my wallet and wife forgive me…

    Wild hog meat… do you eat it or is it too risky?

    You sure they were headed to Germany? I had a Vietnamese oyster fisherman friend who would trade oysters for the big smelly ones. Worked out for both of us so I traded him quite a few over the years till he got out of the business. My least favorite hogs were highly prized by him and his family.

    Wild hog meat… do you eat it or is it too risky?

    I have to say it amazes me how many people think eating wild pork is unthinkable. Grocery stores haven’t been around that long in the grand scheme of things and people have been eating hogs for a long time. I guess even a lot of hunters these days have gotten pretty detached from their food...

    Wild hog meat… do you eat it or is it too risky?

    I never did until I moved to a 650 grain arrow with 20% FOC with a single bevel broadhead then i shoot them at about 25yards and under. It doesn't make it through all of them but it does make it through most of them. On a side note I saw one my dad shot in the shield stop a 6mm Remington. we...

    Wild hog meat… do you eat it or is it too risky?

    overkill is under rated. that will most likely punch through all the way giving you a better chance of not breaking your arrow in the process.

    Wild hog meat… do you eat it or is it too risky?

    Don't use expandable broadheads use heavier arrows and the vitals are low and forward. you will do fine but i have been charged a few times doing this. its a lot of fun though I just recommend having a handgun on your hip, because a bow is not a defensive weapon. I shoot several every year...

    Wild hog meat… do you eat it or is it too risky?

    keep fat young sows when the acorns are falling or just after the crops have come in. Not all hogs are created equal for cooking purposes and big trophy boars taste horrible for the most part. I love making schnitzel out of them.

    Wild hog meat… do you eat it or is it too risky?

    They are fine to eat if you cook them. Wouldn’t suggest a carpaccio or anything like that.

    Why all the 6.5 Creedmoor Hate?

    I am not buying all new stuff. It’s more economical for me to be a hater. Also the memes are already written so it’s easier too. Besides that I just don’t care. I like big bullets and long range holds no appeal to me I prefer my shots on game to be close as I can get. I feel like I am actually...

    One gun or two? On safari

    375 and something larger is my preference. Though on my leopard hunt it was a 300 win mag and a 458 win mag. I like to have 2 in case one breaks for whatever reason. Do I need it probably not but I feel better.

    CRF vs Push feed

    I have never had an issue with push feed guns. I have one that will feed anything I have ever put in it. I think people get too hung up on this personally. Just make sure the rifle you own works well and you can cycle it quickly with the ammo you plan on using while hunting.
