    The No-Shame Thread

    They are fun to ride! Looking forward to reporting back with how this one does. It was a less expensive one that, assuming it functions at all, will pay for itself quickly.

    The No-Shame Thread

    So I ended up buying a Gotrax Tundra ebike on Black Friday. Pretty pumped to see how it changes my public land hunting.

    Trail cam Batteries

    Alkaline batteries are a no-go for me, especially for cell cams. They really hinder the performance, especially if it’s real hot (now) or cold (fall). I recommend the rechargeable lithium battery sold by REVEAL if they’ll work in your cam. Great product!

    I have quite a bit in WI. Seems like you find a lot more birds that won’t give you the time of day, but many are still fired up!

    @Mengle is right. They will literally walk through and pick up the fried bugs while the ground is still smoldering. Hunt it!

    Yeah we discussed the population explosion and subsequent numbers correction of reintroduced animals in the podcast.

    Thanks for listening! WI is, in my eyes, the holy grail of turkey hunting and management. It’s not often I go out with a tag in my pocket and don’t get close to filling it. I hunted Iowa this year and, in my opinion, WI public land has it beat by a long shot.

    I definitely have a bargain bin setup. Maverick 88 12 ga. with an HS STRUT Undertaker choke. I only shoot out to 40, but I killed my first bird at 50 with that setup because I misjudged the yardage. I plan to push past 50 this year on the range and see how it patterns.
