    Looking for some opinions on ozone

    You can use too much ozone. Some rubber and elastics do not like it well. We overozoned a set of under armour bibs amd some elastic strings inside a couple of jackets. It made the elastic no longer elastic. I love using ozone except when I ruin clothing with it.

    Gut shot deer - what 2 do

I have seen a deer with some of his entrails hanging out of him still alive 18 hours after being shot. This was after alot of initial blood. The key is not to push the deer initially and to...

    MANTIS...... WHATS UP TETHRDNATION

    The fat boy had to play a little today. My 285 pounds did not phase the mantis at all. Being new to the saddle, I stayed just a few feet off the ground to gain some confidence and start to get a feel for the saddle. FYI there was still alot of room left to let the belt out in this XL. I am in...
