    I am weak and have no control.

    Used to? Have your medical issues put a stop to flying? Hope you get out of the hospital soon, not a place fit to be in. Been there and left early amid multiple protesting medical staff LOL, most fun I had while in. The food finally got to me so I called a friend to come and get me. There is a...

    Little Dissappointed

    It's good to keep in mind that although a given material may not be exactly like the real thing the results still have some valid information in comparing the "relative" abilities of each pellet. They may give better or worse penatraion in real life but the best penitrating one will always be...

    Thanksgiving Turkey with the new Eva Shockey Golden Eagle .177

    As to the question of why not turkey hunt with an airgun; you're preaching to the faithfull. Yes it should be allowed! I brought up deer hunting to use as an example, that while I would and have shot deer with my bow I would never do so with my air rifle even though it is more powerful than the...

    Thanksgiving Turkey with the new Eva Shockey Golden Eagle .177

    Nice turey and good hunt. It's good to promote airgun hunting and doing anything for hunting in general is good. But, please don't do it at the expence of our hunting brothers who use bows. Besides the negative words about bow hunting being unproductive, they are also wrong. I hunt with an...

    Little Dissappointed

    Why would you think that a gun shooting a 177 cal pellet at 865fps would do better than one that shot a 22 cal pellet at 895fps? Those gifted folks who can kill a moose with a BB gun aside, the numbers usually tell the story. I'm not trying to second guess your choice, just curious. Rob.

    First hunt with my new FX Independence .22!

    In the part of Ontario near Ottawa, the Eastern Grey Squirrel is very commonly all black. In fact when I was growing up I thought the grey ones where the abnormal ones because they were so rare. Same animal just different fur. If you look at a grey one it's fur is a mix of black and white making...

    Which one would you take when go out for hunting?

    "ztirffritz"I take a monocular. It's cheap but it does the job. I won't lose sleep if it should be lost or damaged. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B005H16S6M?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage X2 Monocular is what I bring. Light nd does the job. Rob

    New PCP for Hunting small game up to Raccoon sized game would love your input!

    As bhbeyes points out, sound modifying devices are illegal in Canada and he is very knowledgeable on these topics, but he didn't mention that the penalties for this infraction is very serious. I believe there is a minimum sentence for this infraction that includes jail time. So don't even toy...

    Squirrel population density

    
X2 Taking them from one lot is unlikely to effect the overall population. They will learn to avoid your lot for awhile though. This may give you the impression that you are making headway in controlling them. Forget that idea. They will come back and fill any void you create. Rob.

    White spots on squirrel liver

    Keep in mind that not too long ago trichinella parasites were not un common in farm raised pork and we ate it without much trouble. I eat bass with little white grubs in the meat, just cook it right. There must be info on all of these that tells us if the parasite is safe to eat after proper...

    Brine...what's your formula?

    It's good to include some acid ( lemon juice or vinegar ) in your soak because city water is usually alkali to reduce corrosion in the pipes. A teaspoon per cup of water is enough to get you a neutral PH. As for salt all you need is enough to create osmotic pressure. A tablespoon a qt. Is enough...
