    Hurricane Sandy

    Howard I wish I was on that side of VA. We got hit hard on the bayside of the ES. Tangier, Deep Creek, and Saxis areas all under water. Harborton where I live got flooded as well but as far as I know it stopped just short of everyone's homes. Our highest tide came Sunday mid day when it...

    Hurricane Sandy

    Yea we are getting ready for this one. Like Jack said the tides are already higher than normal. Not only do I hope it doesnt hit at night but I hope it doesnt hit at high tide. If it comes up the Chesapeake the eastern shore is in trouble. Not to mention our family on Tangier. I hope all of...

    Hurricane Sandy

    http://www.wxrisk.com/ Although his posting is a bit unorthodox his forecasting is typically pretty spot on. If the storm takes the southern route the Eastern Shore is going to get hammered. The tides are running above normal as it is. A northern route would put it around NJ.

    What's on the Workbench This October

    Had to drag this up form the 3rd page. Sheesh guys, everyone must be out hunting! I had the pleasure of carving this block for a VA Delta Chapter. Its my version of a Bob McGaw bluebill. It was a fun and fast pattern to carve, and I think I see a few of these in the future for my own rig. The...

    Rusty Treasure

    So long as it is not a damascus or twist barrel you should be fine to shoot modern powders out of that gun. The only thing Ive heard negative about steel and older, tight fixed chokes is that over time it can open the size of the choke. A smaller shot would be less harmful to the choke when...

    Thought you guys might like this

    Kind of like GAP clothing company playing CCR's Senator's Son while showing the American flag during the comercials. Quite commical that they dont even realize what the song is about. However sad that the general public saw nothing more than an ad with an "old" song playing in the back ground.

    Basswood decoys help

    Basswood is heavy and much harder than cedar. I stopped using it for some of the same reasons John said.

    South Shore of LI is looking good

    John when Ive retrieved the data from the bands each one of mine has simply said "Nunavat" nothing more. North or South nunavat, doesnt matter, its a good hike either way. haha

    South Shore of LI is looking good

    Al, every banded brant we have shot has been banded in Nunavut. I'd assume we are shooting the same birds here in VA as they are in LI.

    Weird shoot today.

    Sounds like a fun shoot Mike. Doesnt suprise me at all. We kill plenty of sea ducks out of my Mako every year. I guess they just get used to boats.

    What's on the Workbench in September...

    Ive been working on another bufflehead drake for a local VA forum Im on as a traveling decoy. The guys liked the one I did for the raffle so Ive made another. This is the first time Ive carved the same species back to back. I must say it will happen more often from here out. The things Ive...

    Dog not eating - any suggestions?

    My lab got dehidrated or the heat just plain got to him last summer. I gave him pedialite and power aid for a couple days as he wasnt eating either. After a day or two he got back to normal. Could just be the heat. He has always eaten half of what he does in the winter once it gets hot.

    SDR: Tacoma V6 Prerunnner

    Not knocking your choice. Hope I didnt come across that way. Its been a while since I followed the compact trucks. The prerunner or the 4wd might be the only platform that you can get a 4 door on. Its been a long time since Ive seen a yota that had 4 doors that wasnt one of the two. Either...
