I used to run a lot and tried everything. I am a huge Brooks fan. I'm sure you can find some that will work well.

Altra seem to have a pretty good following and folks that wear them really like them alot.

In a world of all the new brands and our old faithfuls Costa and Maui Jim, I thought a return to a real classic would be cool.


Ironic because a French company Luxottica owns both of them to include Ray Ban. When they bought Costa several years back, that was when their bullet proof warranty got holes in it.
This will be interesting to see how it plays out. Cochran spent a total of 17 years with Saban and Smart (arguably the best to mimic Saban and his MO)

This will be super cool to see it play out. I wish him nothing but the best.

Three OC's couldn't do anything with Milroe's bad mechanical habits (O'Brien, Rees and Sheridan). It was on full display at the Senior Bowl how bad the guy is as a passer. Players matter and a coach can't fix everything about a player. There comes a point that the problem is the player.


I think Milroe's biggest issue was seeing the field. During the bowl game the color commentator, Brock Osweiller, wore his arse out for not seeing wide open receivers. It was painfully obvious. I don't disagree that his mechanics were putrid at times.....but if you can't see them, you can't throw it to them.

Mid to high 30's on an evening hunt.

I think Tom Berenger did an admiral job in Junction Boys.

I have a Badlands turkey vest. Hunted with an Ol Tom for years. Both are excellent.

I have been giving serious thought to just using a chest pack and my turkey chair.

7 mm PRC


Just bought a Christensen Arms 7 PRC for out west. 5.5 pounds and pre-threaded so I can put a can on it. I'm about to top it off with a NightForce NX8. I tell everyone if there is a miss I want it to be operator error and no fault of the equipment used.


On a side note, when someone asks, how many guns do you need, the correct answer is 1 more.

I hunt just north of Demopolis and saw a first ever. Watched a buck mount a doe. He didn't get to finish because she was playing hard to get, but was cool to see it in the wild.

re: Learn me on turkeys

Posted by Bolivar Shagnasty on 1/17/25 at 12:14 pm
You have got some good info from the folks on here.

Turkey on average uses about 2k acres in a years time. They follow food and water. As stated before, habitat is key, especially when it comes spring mating season. Hens need a good spot to nest. Easy access to food/water and ability to see to evade predators. With 200 acres....that is more than enough to have birds in the spring, if your habitat is right. Depending on what your neighbors have, you might be able to "pull" some from those around you, if yours isn't exactly perfect.

On a side note. From what I have read and heard from biologists. If you create a habitat conducive for quail to live on.......every other type of wildlife you would want to hunt, will thrive and come to that habitate.

Kramer: Visionary
Slive: Effective SOB

I'll go along with this, but I think Kramer had too much Tennessee in him and was always biased to his alma mater.

Slive was well respected and thought of and I feel like was a good leader.

Agree, Sankey seems like Barney Fife. Has the title and "demands" the respect, but doesn't own it like the Andy Griffith he thinks he is.

Are you seriously comparing Tuscaloosa to Pullman, WA ? Have you ever been to Pullman ? There’s literally no comparison between the two cities. Also the two programs. Tuscaloosa has its drawbacks to be sure. But compared to Pullman it’s like Atlanta.



I remember when "It's Rolling" Mike Price was hired. At the time he was AD and Football coach at WSU. Their entire athletic budget was like 22 million a year. Bama's football budget at the time was like 18 million a year. Pullman and Tuscaloosa are not the same.
If people would quit buying shite, they would get the message.

Bitching ain't gonna change a thing. When they have to start throwing away tons of food because you have to put the rot-gut shite on lay-a-way.....that will move the needle.

I have had season tickets for 22 years. I have not bought food at BDS in 4 years. I buy one souvenir cup a year now. That's it.
I say 11-1 at worst.

We could have easily won all 3 games, but the offense let us down more so than the D in 2 of those games. I don't think we lose to Vandy, but they were scrappy as hell.

Defense played well enough to beat UT, but we could not do anything offensively. Same against OU.

As ready as I am for the Milroe experiment to be over, Kid has played for a new OC every year and learned a new offense this year. Had Rees stayed this year maybe Milroe and Rees do better, maybe not.......but I think things would have been better under Saban.

Having said that. We had nowhere to go but down after the GOAT retired.

I am still hopeful of Deboer doing well. He has a chance to win 10 games his first year.

Kirby went 8-5 his first year. Sark went 5-7 then 8-5

I have high hopes.

As stated earlier. Don't over look the Husqvarna. I have the 455 Rancher and it has been a beast.

Having said that. Anyone that cuts trees for a living......Stihl is the gold standard.
A win against Auburn and a bowl game win. = 10 win season.

re: Banking elk points

Posted by Bolivar Shagnasty on 10/16/24 at 3:46 pm
I'm buying elk and antelope in Wyoming.

Use an outfitter to go bust a cow every couple of years. Buying points with some friends and we can "share" points if we put in as a group. Planning on a cow and antelope hunt next year and doing a Bull and antelope hunt in 2027.
