YETI Bucket Review

April 21, 2020 by jim Leave a Comment

I think the folks at YETI have lost their minds. I bet I could find a lot of people who would agree with me. If you feel that spending $70 bucks on a bucket with lid is worth it, then go for it. More power to you. I will tell you what, hit up any restaurant and they will give you buckets with lids for free. If you are really desperate, and I mean really desperate, head on over… ...Read More

How not to launch a boat

March 26, 2017 by jim Leave a Comment

There are right ways and there are not so right ways to launch a boat, but this right here is one way how not to launch a boat. I get it, we all make mistakes, but when you put together heavy weight and a steep ramp, gravity always wins. Here is a small piece of advice, never unhook the winch until the boat is in the water. I’ve seen this happen time and time again.… ...Read More

From my cold dead feet

From my cold dead feet! Oh my, now I’ve seen it all. If I catch any member of this forum wearing these shoes, you will be banned for life. This has to be joke right? Who would wear these? At least my camo crocs are accepted as the norm. These? Never!… ...Read More

Premium Cooler Market

January 18, 2016 by jim 10 Comments

What is going on in the Premium Cooler Market these days? This is crazy if you are to ask me. Back in the day it was the old trusty Coleman. These days you have premium cooler companies popping up left and right trying to get you to shell out big bucks for something that is likely going to get stolen out of the back of your truck. Are they worth it? No idea, I’m not… ...Read More

The Choice

February 17, 2015 by jim Leave a Comment

I went to the Great American Outdoor show in PA last weekend and while walking through the archery section I saw Ralph and Vicki from “Archers Choice”. It is always cool when you meet people that you consider celebrities. I watch their show all the time on the outdoor channel. They were a class act and very friendly, exactly what I expected.… ...Read More

Kodiak Wipes

December 13, 2014 by jim Leave a Comment

Holy Crap! No pun intended. Kodiak wipes are marketed to us “outdoor” people. I only see the Ad on my hunting channel. Nothing like being out and about in the woods and nature calls. I don’t know about you, but Dunkin Donuts napkins are my savior, and my buddy Rich has an endless supply of McDonalds napkins readily available when… ...Read More

Bass Fishing Fail!

October 26, 2014 by jim

Nothing worse than having a rod go overboard. I don’t care who you are, that hurts. It has happened to the best of us, and it will happen to you at least once in your life. Sorry Dad! Look at it this way, now you have an excuse to go get a new combo.… ...Read More

RipSomeLips

October 16, 2014 by jim Leave a Comment

I follow some people on youtube, but one that I thoroughly enjoy is youtube channel RipSomeLips. It is run by a team of brothers that are still young teenagers. In a day where it hard to get to kids to go outside and play because of an electronic world, it is refreshing to see kids like these that still enjoy doing outdoor activities. They are also passionate about… ...Read More
