    Nugent concert

    Saw Nugent in concert this weekend in suburban Detroit. I haven't seen him since 1989 and wasn't expecting much but was TOTALLY blown away. The dude at 65 years old (and his band) can still crank it out. Derrick St. Holmes, his original co lead singer was with him and can still hit the notes...

    advice on .243

    A recently purchased a .243 for my 15 year old son to use on our antelope hunt, figuring he could use it for whitetails and mulies in the future.

The outfitter and guide were good people but I was a little...

    outfitter/guide tipping

    Does it make sense to tip the outfitter of a small operation if they are the ones guiding hunters also? Guided hunts already cost a fortune. Anyone?
