    Old Timer 69OT Sharpening Advise

    Yeah this was my second set of diamond sharpening stones. What kind of pressure do you use? What angles? I've tried heavy and light pressure. I seem to get a little better edge from light pressure. I've tried 25 and 20 degree angles. The results seem to be the same for angles.

    Old Timer 69OT Sharpening Advise

    I bought an old timer 69OT off amazon. This thing is not sharp. For the life of me I can't get an edge on the blade. I've tried whet stones, diamond sharpening stones and WorkSharp belt style sharpener. The WorkSharp works the best, but still no where near where I think it should be. The knife...

    Little Debbie's

    Wasn't my favorite combo, but moon pie and RC is a definite childhood memory of mine.

    Wicked Ridge Invader M1

    Stop doing this! Hunters trying to be good here. I really like that this is light weight and compact.

    I did the same with 1 inch webbing and garden hose.

    My challenge to you

    OK but starts today. The first part of this new year doesn't count. Lol!

    Blade sharpening...WOW

    Thanks for this. I just got my Old Timer Trapper last week. The reviews said it comes razor sharp, but I think the edge needs some attention.

    What's everyone reading?

    About half way through 'The Old Man and the Tree: A different Approach to Deer Hunting' by Barry Wensel. This has been one of my favorite books on deer hunting so far. I usually try to read one or two a year from different authors to gain different perspectives. The other one I read this year...

    Virginia group chat/possible meet up?

    Not sure about everyone else's area, but all the gates around Botetourt, Montgomery and Craig seem to be closed until Spring Gobbler. I'm no shed hunter, nor am I a Spring Gobbler hunter. I do both but it always ends in a scouting session for me too.

    Packable wader/hip boot for quick crossings

    Just a thought. I've never tried it, but couldn't you punch your boot through a contractor bag and then tight bungee around the ankle? You could loose bungee the thigh. Really all we are trying to do is a quick prevent water from coming over the top the boot.

    2024 Off-Season Getting/Staying In Shape Motivation Thread

    For me, I've been working out since I was 16. I keep it up so my arthritic body doesn't turn to a block of concrete. For about the past year, I've added several stretching exercises. When ever I get a break, stretch whatever is or isn't hurting. It's really helping. Some knowledge I learned...

    What will you test or tinker?

    I'll be trying, probably after scouting and spring gobbler, 2tc.

    Ground blind chair…whatcha got?

    ^this. They are pricey, but unlike other offerings, you won't want to leave this one home.

    Favorite time to scout?

    My favorite time to scout is right now! This time of year is AWESOME! You can easily determine what part of the season the sign was laid. They are still in late season quarters, so bonus if you kick one up or find a fresh shed. (Scout the area and mark it for late season next year.) No crawly...
