  1. The psycho neighbor is the one with heart disease. I won’t have to worry about him much longer. The grapevine says he ain’t lasting through next year. The neighbors with the chickens are a family that moved in last spring. Not trying to CR the thread, but they are a bunch of far right wing wackos who decided to move to the woods to protect their children from the ever present threat of trans/gay indoctrination. They have no idea what they are doing. All they know is what they find on youtube. They will not take the friendly advice of people who have lived out here for years. In fact, they have isolated themselves with their attitude. They have been living in a school bus while working on their cabin. They have not finished their cabin, nor have they procured sufficient firewood to make it through the winter. It started snowing today btw. 50 below zero in a school bus will be an eye opening experience for them.
  2. Nah, this is another idiot that moved in recently. It’ll be their first winter. I doubt they make it. Update on my psycho neighbor…I heard through the grapevine he has severe heart failure (insert that’s a shame gif). I’ve been wondering why I haven’t seen him around all summer.
  3. I have a neighbor who lets his chickens free range. For some reason, a rooster heads my way and has been waking me up crowing between 3 and 4 in the morning all summer. I’ve complained to him about it and he basically just shrugs his shoulders. The little bastard was crowing in my yard this morning, so I shot the fucker with a .44 magnum and deposited what was left of the carcass on the hood of the neighbors truck on my way to work. Very much looking forward to that conversation if he has the stones. Hens are cool, roosters suck.
  4. A snowshoe hare in the garden has Magnum’s attention
  5. But as for me I hope they never see Ol’ DB Cooper again
  6. When is the National Guard being sent in?
  7. Agreed. Looking forward to the next couple of years. Hoping they can hold on to Chapman and Bregman. If it can't be the Sox this year I'm going to pull hard for the Blue Jays. They are a fun team to watch, and I'd love to see the Canadian team win it all.
  8. This. I considered it an honor to send my girl Jolie to Valhalla (all dogs go to Valhalla imo). It was the hardest trigger I ever pulled, and I miss her every day. I hope someone does the same for me when it’s my time.
  9. I have seen moose poop ear rings and swizzle sticks for sale at the tourist traps up here. People literally buying shit.
  10. Yeah, I don’t know if it was just a funky one or what. I plan on getting another one sometime to see if it was just a bad bou. A caribou is more of the size of animal me and Mrs. Moose need.
  11. Alaska...Denali Borough. If memory serves me correctly from the other sites you lived in Fairbanks for a bit. I've taken one caribou, which is basically the same as a reindeer. Neither my wife or I cared for it. The backstrap was ok fried, but it just had a weird taste to me and her. Ended up giving most of it away.
  12. We'll buy pork butt to cut the moose with for sausage. We usually buy beef steak trimmings from the butcher shops to cut with it for ground meat. During hunting season up here all the meat markets have steak trimmings for sale.
  13. I use the same rifle I hunted whitetail deer with in Texas, a .270 Win. I don’t take a shot over 300 yards. It’s usually a shot in the 100 to 200 yard range. If you can place your shot, they die quickly. I’ve killed several moose over the years, all within 300 yards and all one shot kills.
  14. Soups and stews are common winter meals at Casa de Moose. Since the wood stove is burning 24/7 you can cook things like that on it and save propane. Gonna try jerky along with the sausage. Gotta do something with all that meat. Trying to not get burned out on it since it seems like it will be our red meat option for the foreseeable future.
  15. Cold holes are an option, but we cheat. We have had a chest freezer at a friend’s house who has electricity. Plus, we recently bought an on the grid house, so we’ll move it over to our new place eventually. We still live at the cabin. We are renovating the new place at stoners pace. It’s basically just an expensive bathroom, laundry facility right now.
  16. I haven’t moose hunted in 2 years because it’s just the wife and I and a moose is a lot of meat for 2 people. Made sure the rifle was still sighted in this weekend so we could go out on opening day (Sept 1) because of this shit. Going to pull out my Grandpa’s venison sausage recipes and see if they translate to moose if I’m lucky enough to get one.
  17. Striker fired 9mm Simple to use, high capacity, and a plethora of ammo options
