You are aware that the Pa. Game Commission sort of frowns upon that, right? Sub

I'll hafta try your version out NRA. Sounds tasty. Another easy one: Take some venison(chops are what i usually use), wrap/stuff with finely diced onion. Wrap stuffed venison with bacon, throw it in the oven, give it a while. The bacon should be meaty, but not exactly crisp. Heaven in a...

Fur, Fish, & Game usually has a couple of plain old stories. You might want to look into that. Pennsylvania Game News also runs huntin' stories, you might have a similar mag where you're at. Good luck. Sub

Here's another fast easy one I throw together on occasion: Cut tenderloin into steaks of desired thickness Sear in skillet, then remove Add some thinly sliced onion, cook for a minute Deglaze with red wine, add a splash of soy Put the tenderloins back in pan Add some fresh baby spinach...

It's an old-fashioned way of hunting. Such dogs are called "lurchers" over in England, there's a long tradition over there of using greyhound/whippet-crosses for such effect. If you're interested, look for some books by D. Brian Plummer. Interesting reading. Sub

Many a couch will be burning in Morgantown tonight. Montani Semper Liberi, Sub

A couple of mine have went swimming, inadvertently. Also, don't pick up a rifle by the sling unless you know for damn sure the swivels are locked, learned that one the hard way. If you drop your rifle in the dark on the way to your stand, pull the bolt and sight through the bore on the moon or...

20 isn't really *that* cold. If you have decent clothes, and it's not uber-windy or rainy/sleety, you can be relatively comfy sitting in 20 degree weather all day. One of my personal tricks is wearing as little as possible on the way to the stand. Wear your long johns/pants, with a t-shirt on...

What Dakotasin said. A 7/.300/.338 mag is just as effective as the more traditional deer chamberings, and it's more effective over a bigger range of circumstances, assuming you use the right bullet. In short, use whatever you want. Sub

Hunter=someone that shoots animals, as in "An unknown hunter shot farmer Brown's cow. The cow is expected to survive." I especially love when they interview a witness to a crime on TV. Numerous "ak-47" and ".357" references. I mean, if an unidentified car tried to hit me, and I reported...

It's a little late in the game to get involved this year. What are you planning on hunting? Spend as much time as you can out in the woods, learning the natural rhythm of things. Generally, you want to be as quiet as possible, as still as possible, and as stink-free as possible. Sub

Real nice buck. Hopefully I'll bump into his big brother sometime tomorrow(PA opener). Sub

What DigMe said. I still see lots of guys in 20-30 degree weather wearing jeans and sweatshirts, they last an hour or two, walk some powerlines, then call it a day. Polypropylene long johns, wool pants n shirt, good socks, good boots, coat long enough to cover your plumber's crack, etc. The...

Fjestad, 24th edition, pp. 1600-1601: 90%, $800 add 30-50% for long tang, depending on condition add 150% for 20" carbine barrel add 50-75% for deluxe model, depending on condition Damn nice rifles they are. Sub

Ditto on the law variations from state to state. Here in PA, it's any centerfire with an "all lead or expanding type bullet," for whitetails. But we're not allowed any type of semiauto rifles, even for small game. So you could build a .25 ACP Contender and use 35 gr. Gold Dots or whatever and...

If you're talking about does vs. fawns/yearlings, generally a doe has a proportionally longer snout. A fawn/yearling will have a stubby looking snout, much like a human baby has a chubby head until it grows some. If you have cable, try to check out some of the hunting shows and pay attention...

I don't mind using a relatively heavy rifle. Shot angles can be less of an issue if you're using a heavy rifle. The hunter densities here(PA, WV) are rather high, so it's a pretty good idea to anchor your buck where he stands, rather than letting him bleed out 200 yards away. For instance...

"how do you get over shooting something living that's not attacking you?" With all due respect, you're looking at it the wrong way. My grandpap had a quote he would say(I don't recall the exact phrase in Italian but here goes) "death for you means life for me." His old man would say it when...

Stonewall Jackson Lake, year before last I believe it was, probably the same storm. Sub
