    Don’t know which way you are coming from, but new river gorge north of beckley near Fayetteville is worth a look. The highland scenic highway loop near marlinton has exceptional views of the valleys. Elkins and Seneca Rocks are also nice areas if you have time and it’s not too far out of the...

    Upland Hunting - General

    This trip week before last was her second time pheasant hunting and I don’t think she does a true point by instinct. However, I’ve seen her flashpoint for a few seconds until she gets focused on a bird and flushes it, and once on this recent trip, she noticed an English pointer lock up and she...

    Upland Hunting - General

    went on my first pheasant hunt in October 2015 in SE south Dakota. Got a small taste of public land hunting before a weekend hunt at an outfitter on private land. It didn't take long to realize that having a dog is a game changer. When I got back home in 2015, I told myself I would have a dog...

    DIY Cooler slide

    I plan to strap it down to the board when loaded down and on the road. I think I need to move the tent forward a little bit and fine tune positioning on the board.

    DIY Cooler slide

    Need ideas for rebuild

    update.... i figured it was a good idea to replace the bearings and if I always have a set for each hub on hand, i need some kind of container to carry the bearings and grease and tools needed to do a bearing swap in case of a breakdown in the field. As it were, I have a couple of John Deere...

    Need ideas for rebuild

    turns out you are right about the rims being ag rims. i figured since i was going to be 1500 miles from home on a family road trip this summer, i needed to know how to service and replace wheel bearings in case we had an emergency failure on the road. i've never serviced or replaced wheel...
