today I took a couple pics of somebody's tree stand . it's on public game lands . this spring the game commission had a tree company come in and do a lot of logging . they logged a few hundred yards away from this stand . this won't bother anything . the game commission also erected a fence...

@tedharold48 nice hidden hyper link in your first post . pushing spam ?

when we were getting together shooting every weekend , I was using about 1 pound a weekend . if I didn't blend powder lots , I was constantly adjusting charge weights . I started to buy a few 8 pounders at a time , and blend them , if they were different lot numbers . mixing large...

they sell a Kee Kee mouth call . I'd guess it's something with the reeds , high pitch , that make the difference . turkey like blue berries too , if you know where there are blue berries , could be a good starting point . .
