Holy shit, you robbed them people!

I'll give you $55 delivered to 36582.

:lol:

The guy had it listed for $75, and said it needed some work. I figured it was a typo, and asked about it. The fiberglass is cracked a bit where the seat connects to the gunnels. He sent pictures of the cracks, and I saw the Carsten plate. He had no idea...

I've got fiberglass cloth, and resin for the hybrid I'm working on, so I figured it would be no big deal. Headed up there, and said I'll take it. Didn't even haggle. I asked if it was $75, just to confirm again (waiting for a huge price jump), and he said that he just wanted $50. Even helped me put it on top of the truck. Kinda felt bad, but he said he just can't use it any more. It will get some good use with me.

Steal of the year! :D

And no deal! I don't think I could sell it. Even for a profit...

I considered that. If he stole it, it was stolen years ago. It had a "spot" where it sat on the side of his garage that didn't get there overnight, or even one season of sitting there.

Not sure if it counts since technically im not really buy it, work is! Im getting a mustang survival float coat similar to Jguns. Work gives us a $250 health and wellness allowance to purchase stuff that "gets us outdoors". APparently waders dont count because its footwear, like im gonna throw on the waders and watch the Robertsons in my living room? Oh well, if they wanna buy me a $200 coat, im down with that. Us great lakes boys cant take any chances on the big waters.

How much floatation do these actually supply? Is it a replacement for a life vest or just supplemental floatation?

I came very close to being back to just one a couple hours ago. The older one avery ate some rat poison at another golf course while I was there getting some parts for our aerator.
Rushed her to a nearby vet within 5 minutes, they made her barf it all up. gave her activated charcoal to neutralize any poison that might have stayed in her system and a vitamin k injection along with vitamin k tablets. Scared the shit out of me but the vet says she's gona be ok.

The bill at Cabelas was $450, then realized I forgot my dads present and went back on for another $140. Got bow stuff (arrows, broad heads, bow case, lighted nocks because I want to see what they are about) fishing line, they had this layout for $89
uploadfromtaptalk1377836620914.jpg

Seat covers for the truck (went with camo), heavy socks, federal stamp, a poly Field Proven Raptor... I feel like I'm forgetting other things. Oh, couple hoodies. Then my dad's gift were side rollers for his boat trailer (he's having trouble adjusting to the roller trailer and getting the boat lined up).

I didn't look. I knew I forgot something.

You should see my jeans from high school. Jyncos and kick wear. Not exactly skinny.

FA Eliminator Express, I hate that blind with a fucking passion. Not only is it not suitable for big guys (as my old man described it, just a bit smaller than a youth sized sleeping bag, shouldn't be a problem for you), it has to be about the worst designed blind of all time. My recommendation to you is to scrap the knee/gun rest and pull the conduit brackets out as the ends always seem to be rubbing on your calves. If you do that, you will basically have a Power Hunter without the lid. Still hate that thing.

Kinda do. I went to check out the lathe, started talking to the lady, wound up it was her ex husbands who passed away and left her the house and everything in it. She told me she knew I would use, enjoy and take care of it and she wanted me to take it. Then started asking if I could use the sander or the drill press. She gave me an upright band saw also but it was huge and I had no room for it.

The illuminated nocks are the shit, in low light conditions.

If your bow shoots fast enough, there will be a streak of light and it makes seeing the point of impact very easy.

It's a Cabelas blind, did they just rebadge the eliminator?

20 bluebills and 10 redheads.


First-Flight Decoys...

the deeks arrived a couple days ago, and it pains me to say it, but they suck.

The paint job is bad, the shape is all wrong, 20 of the 30 showed up damaged.

12 have paint already chipping off, 8 came with the bottoms caved in so bad they don't float up right.

They didn't use a thermoset plastic so when they get hot they loose there shape and they didn't bake on the paint.

I don't want to say bad things about this company, because their customer service was sooooo good. So good in fact I elected to keep the ten good ones, knowing they won't last a whole season. I guess you get what you pay for, but their cutomer service was fantastic... If they change their molds, materials, and process I would take the chance and buy from them again, just on that fact alone.

Just thought I would let everyone know so they don't make the same mistake. :thumbsup:
