Blake, Your dad is a real trooper! Our family is headed for Saskatchewan on Friday. Nothing against geese, but we are just focusing on ducks. What is the sitrep at the border; feathers on/feathers off? My wife really prefers skin on for cooking. RM

Shooting lessons are a wonderful idea for a young shooter just starting out. The last three years I have been trying to retrain myself because I never had a teacher when I was learning to shoot a shotgun. If your son is agreeable to starting from scratch, I would revisit Bob Brister's method of...

I worked for a short time for Case New Holland as a Quality Control Inspector and used Coordinate Measuring Machines in the course of my work. Out of curiosity, what are you using for your datum? RM

Thank you Pastor Larry! RM

Well wouldn't you know, the Aimpoint Acro S2 came in early. I was told that it wouldn't ship till after the first of the year but here we are at the beginning of hunting season. What to do? Since I have two nearly identical shotguns, I couldn't help myself and decided to use it this season. If...

Scott, Very impressive turn around! You would not even recognize it as the same boat. Good job! Are you refurbishing the trailer next? Steve Sanford has informative posts on that very subject. RM

Nate, Only one boat comes to mind. A Devlin Poleboat with a square stern. RM

Wyatt, Good Lord that's alot of goose! Sorry to hear about your father. Vasculitis is a real bitch and I know this because I have it in my lungs. Have your dad inquire about infusions the next time he sees his doctor. My wife and doctors fought with insurance just to try this new therapy and...

Sorry to hear of you experience since I always try to cheer on American manufacturers. Unfortunately a quality culture does not exist in every company today. RM

Beautiful shotgun; Ithaca SKB by chance? RM

Old-school (pending name change), tell me about your shotgun...beautiful! At first glance I too thought your boat was a Carstens Pintail but I have no firsthand knowledge. RM

Wow! My Surf and Swamp Seat arrived a couple days ago and I just got around to opening the box. This marsh seat exceeds my expectations with its simple and durable design. My only modification will be to add closed cell foam to the top of the seat with a few strips of 3M Super Basting tape...

I didn't know about sneakboxes until just a few years ago but when I learned about them I thought man, I'm on the cutting edge of duck hunting technology! Had no idea folks had been hunting out of these little crafts for 200 years. It's great to be part of a remnant that still use them and...

Tom, System Three S1 Penetrating Epoxy is what I have used. Get a respiratory or do it outdoors. It is a great product that I have used often. RM

PVC tubing. RM

Tom, Absolutely NOT overkill. In fact using a penetrating epoxy; say two to three coats, will allow your spar varnish to last much longer before peeling. I did the same thing after refinishing my spear house door. Epoxy acts like a primer whether you are using latex paint or varnish. Just be...
