There is a trail camera placed a quarter mile back in the woods. I should have retrieved it two months ago, but it is cold outside and I am not motivated to go off the road to retrieve it; put on my boots and drag my ass out to get […]
12/4/2022 – It seems there are two camps when it comes to Weatherby firearms and cartridges, which has pretty much been the case since Roy Weatherby started hawking his brand in the 1940s. To some, he was a salesman, flamboyant in the representation of his products. To others, he was […]
