    Agree completely. High profits attract competition which lowers prices. Economics appears to be lost on politicians, and those they so easily manipulate.

    That darn buffalo hunt!

    Even with skull mounts, a man eventually runs out of room for more buffalo.

    That darn buffalo hunt!

    The only cure for buffalo hunting is buffalo hunting. I was hunting buffalo every year for a while. Thankfully, for the sake of my bank account, I’m not as mad at them as I once was.

    Funny thing is Trump knows all this. So what is it he doesn’t want you paying attention to while he gets you fired up over a nothing burger?

    I know these sound like big numbers to you, but they have to be looked at in the context of the investment that has to be made to capture them. RONA for these companies is typically in the 8 to 10 percent range. For every good year there are one or two marginal years. Years ago I was...

    Do you have any interest in facts, or do you just like riding popular bandwagons? If you are interested in facts, look at the long term returns of the companies you are so quick to vilify. They are publicly traded, there are no secrets. My guess is that you would be unhappy with the returns...

    What a load of crap. The market set the oil price, not the oil companies. Idiot politicians roll this issue out to deflect attention. Show me one time when this distraction has ever shown substance. You can’t, because it hasn’t.

    The Macnab challenge Carruthers Club style

    Just for clarity, if you go to a store in the UK and ask for knickers, you will get ladies underwear. The proper term for what you want is breeks. Any gun shop in the UK will have them. I typically buy my kit at Park Street Guns in St Albans.

    The segment of the population who can operate a ‘three on the tree’ tend to live on the honest side of the tracks!

    Unfortunately we have many who simply can’t do the work. I’m 65. I hired a young man to help me with chainsaw and tractor work. He’s a gym rat and was off to marine boot camp the following month. After four hours he was on his hands and knees puking. I’ll grant you it was hot and we were...

    I totally agree. We had Mexican crews growing up. We also hired city kids. As a rule the Mexicans were fantastic workers and the city kids were by and large useless. I hear these ridiculous arguments that we need to employ our own citizens. These are obviously arguments made by folks who...

    Sango Zimbabwe Concession

    Very strange, we saw a lot of PG on the Save, it’s been a few years though.

    Sango Zimbabwe Concession

    If we’re talking about Sango Ranch in the Save Conservancy, it is a beautiful area. I’ve hunted other ranches in the Save, but not Sango. Duke at Gulf Breeze Firearms has hunted it a number of times if you want to talk to someone with a lot of experience on the ground.

    Anyone been getting sick on flights lately?

    Have not had any issues. I take the normal precautions, but really, I just don’t tend to get sick.
