Was forwarded an email from a family member about some elk near Harpers Ferry. A bull and two cows, the email states the DNR shot the cows. Anyone know anything about this? I’m sure there’s an explanation. They took some pictures of the bull, now if I can only figure out how to attach a .jpg...

Just watching that makes my shoulder hurt. -Bugs

I've seen them (fetus) in all the late season does I've harvested. Almost always twins. They're nothing out of the ordinary.

What!!?? A tresspasser turned over to the Sheriff... what ever happened with the time honored tradition of attacking the tresspasser with a stick? Just kidding... -Bugs

Bill, To heat up the sausage I suggest adding some dried red chili pepper flakes. For more heat add some cayenne powder. Make sure you mix everything thoroughly. Bugs

Yes. FWIW - Was hunting in some timber yesterday over in Iowa Co. and saw a bunch of robins, not just one or two, but a flock and they were heading north. It's like Spring out there.

FWIW - The SS sticks out of the jerky gun turned out excellent. Cooking the SS in AL foil worked just fine. The casing stuffed sausages give a better presentation, but the AL foil cooked sausages taste just as good.

I've made deer brats a couple of times and I've never really had much success. The brats just come out too dry; just not enough fat in them to make them juicy. They have good flavour, but just aren't juicy like the Fareway brats. Might try another batch, with more pork, if I bag another deer.

For 25 lbs of breakfast sausage, cut your venison into one inch cubes, store in the fridge. Go to your local Fareway and buy 2 pork butt roasts (about $1.79 a lb.), have the Fareway butcher de-bone the pork roasts. Cut the pork into one inch cubes. Get out the A.C. Leggs Olde Plantation...

In case any gastronomes are interested... I just made a batch of summer sausage that came out just about perfect. I got supplies from Eldon Sausage in Idaho, you can google the site up. I used A.C. Leggs Olde Plantation summer sausage seasoning. I used 9 lbs of beef bottom round roast and 13...

[ QUOTE ] It must just be you legal eagle. There's no irony in Longspurs's post just fact. [/ QUOTE ] Just fact??? On a public forum??? Hmmm... I must of missed the swear in ceremony over the Bible when I registered here. (<-- That's a smarmy, facetious statement.) I'm not...

Longspur, no offense, but just I love your post, it starts with "The bottom line is anyone who wasn't there can Monday morning quarterback this one to death." and ends with the (Monday morning quarterbacking) statement "This is in no way entrapment.". Does anyone else see the irony or is it...

Go get a tube of anti-sieze compound from your local automotive supply store. Use that on the breech plug threads everytime you remove the plug. And don't over tighten the breech plug, just make it nice and snug, no need to torque the sucker down. I shoot granular 777 out of my Omega and it...

OK Hawkeye, No, I've never met Mr. Bonser. I don't doubt he's a great guy. My point it that this is a very interesting story, one that we'll be sure to hear and read more about. It's not very often one reads about tresspassing "under cover" CO's getting attacked by a stick wielding maniac...

Un-bunch your panties... I stated Taylor was in the wrong for whacking the "under cover" CO's with a stick. He should have simply called the police and reported the tresspassers, end of story. But since you brought it up... maybe Taylor is hot head who has a history of whacking tresspassers...

(Raise hand... Stand up... and state...) Hello, my name is Bugs and I'm an idiot. I put the wrong tags on two deer I killed last Saturday and reported them to the IDNR via cell phone. The next day, Sunday, while going through my hunting stuff I came across the tags I should have used the day...

Interesting... the CO’s were “undercover”, i.e. dressed as hunters... so this guy Taylor thinks they are trespassers and reacts in an aggressive manner, he smacks them with a stick, hey, he was outnumbered (even if one is a girl). And after the “undercover” CO’s identify themselves - “Freeze...

I hunted a deer population management zone yesterday and saw 4-5 deer before dropping a nice doe at 128 yards with the scoped inline muzzle stuffer at 7:45 am. Hit her in the neck and she dropped like the proverbial bad habit. The yearling that was with hung around, giving me enough time to...

Yesterday, 4 for me (3 with ML, 1 with 870), 8 others for friend (all with scoped 870). 275 + 12 = 287

Had a good morning yesterday; got to my stand late, about a ½ hour before sunrise. First time hunting out of this particular stand and since we need some fresh meat I was prepared to zap the first decent sized doe. I was also prepared to drop a monster if one happened by; having shot a number...
