Thought it was standard for SEC refs to refuse to flag holding calls on bama Oline.

DIY Hunted Montana a few times and it’s hard for someone from south Louisiana to wrap your head around how big the state is. Some public lands were over 240k acres. Only way to cover that much ground is to drive, spot, then stalk.

Completely agree. Sighted in at 100yds and Her 243 will be for 3 particular fields that are all 100 yds or smaller.

Kinda in the same situation. My 13y old is 5’ and tiny. I was afraid to get her a 7-08 and didn’t want to carry my heavy 25-06 so I bought her a Bergara stoke 243. Put a dead air nomad Ti on it and it’s a sweet set up. Hoping to find an ammo it likes and I’m gonna take her to start shooting soon. I think with good placement and a good bullet it’ll kill deer for sure.

Agree except the quality work part. Built a house 5 years ago and the framers and sheet rock crew did a terrible job. Quality suffers when speed is a priority.

Midway has vortex vipers on sale. I bought my daughter a 2.5-10x44 for her .243 for 250$. Has a 30mm tube. I’m usually a leupold guy but for 250$ for her first rifle that I’m not expecting her to shoot more than 100yds I couldn’t pass the deal.

re: Food Plot Seeding
Posted by magicman534 on 10/8/26 at 5:45 pm to DaFreakinFarmer
I bought extra to account for birds and other waste. My issue is I’m anxious as hell about the timing of it. Like it’s a task that needs to be completed and I hate having stuff like that lingering but also don’t wanna waste seed and have it washed away by 2+ inches of rain or no rain and it’s wasted that way.

I’m curious, why the downvotes for BuckBusters?
No idea. I’ve used it the last 2 years with OK results. However, this spring, I tested the pH and it was so low I needed 2 tons of lime per acre. I did that over the summer and I’m gonna put out more fertilizer this fall to see if that makes a difference while also using a different seed. I think the pH and not enough fertilizer was more of an issue than the buck busters itself.

My buddy became a distributor for real world wildlife products. Using the Dixie dozen blend. Not sure of the exact cost yet.
re: 2026 Chevy Silverado 6.6 duramax
Posted by magicman534 on 9/28/26 at 8:59 am to mbuff
Bought a 2026 2500 gmc sierra SLT with the 6.6 Duramax in June. Had a 2018 sierra SLT 1500 with the 5.3 and 94k miles and loved it but couldn’t tow the tractor safely. So far I’m very happy with it. The ram def rides nicer but I’m hoping after I level it with new control arms and fox shocks that’ll improve a bit. Either way I bought it to tow. Not for a Cadillac type ride. However, it Tows the tractor and all the implements with ease. I saw GM has a 8.3 mongoose engine for 2027. Power Numbers are impressive but I’m always nervous to buy an engine first year out.

Minimum 11 years post high school. 4 years college 4 year med school 3 year residency in like family med, internal med, pediatrics or emergency medicine. More if they want to be a surgeon or pursue fellowships.
The timeline I mentioned was to represent specialties that paid closer to what baldonna posted.

I don’t believe this at all, come on. There’s a huge difference in making $225k a year as a nurse and making $600+ as a doctor. There’s a fair share of docs that aren’t great at making money, but there’s plenty of docs that are.
That gap is smaller than you think. Especially with big companies like Ochsner, lcmc, Kaiser swallowing up private practice specialties. And in 20 years sure the doc will be doing better financially. But the nursing/PA route is the quickest to a lifestyle. Kids now don’t want to grind for 12-15 years post high school.

I think I’m gonna try for Oct 9/10. I’ve bush hogged twice and disced once but it was dry. Finally getting some rain. Have 7 small plots I wanna disc again, drag, lime/fert/seed, then cover.

Not as many young Americans willing to spend 10+ years training to become a doctor. Family Practice and Pediatrics don’t pay enough to be worth it anymore. Easier to become a NP and make good money.
My son is 19 and very mature, highly intelligent. Every doctor I work with told him don’t go to med school. Being a white straight male he’s at the bottom of the list to get in and tuition is too high. Quicker route to less debt and a better lifestyle in nursing then grad school. They even discouraged their own kids from med school.

No experience with the 22LR rat shot. However, the 9mm rat shot will not cycle on my HK VP9. Haven’t tried it in one of my other 9mm though. My snake/rat gun is a cheap small 38 revolver that fits in my pocket.

In Montana we had our best luck meeting farmers in diners or coffee shops. They hated the deer and invited us to go kill deer in their fields.
