I grew up hunting ruff grouse, deer, rabbits, pretty much all game. Spent 20 years in the Navy and hunted what ever was available where I was stationed. Mule deer in So. Cali. Wild Boar at Fort Hunter Liggett when I was in Alameda and Hawaii, Blacktails and Elk in Wa. State, etc. Now I am living in the ruff grouse capital of the world in Mn. SD is the world's best pheasant hunting and a small group of us retired Navy and Air Force get together each year there to hunt pheasant. It is a very social event but serious hunting also. I have migrated toward watching the dog hunt birds over anything else. I also shoot a lot of clay targets during the year Trap, Skeet and Sporting Clays. Sporting Clays is by far my favorite. Farm or pen raised birds at those game farms or State planted birds are a far cry from the wild pheasants in the Dakotas and are very challenging. But it is still all about watching the dog work!

 

i understand doing this for audio purposes,but why are you doing this if i may ask jim?

 

We just replaced/added to all of our troop gear. spent some serious cash but got good discounts for scouts.

It looks more like fall/winter, for once!

It cuts out alot of road noise, Crom has a write up on it, he did the entire cab, door and floor.

 

My son is stationed at Ft. Hood and said it's a little chilly. I was stationed there twice and do remember some cold winters also.

 

My brother and I dabbled in clays a little. I'd love to get into it but I'm not much for crowds...but it would sure be fun.

 

def right about road noise. not exactly an easy job nor is it cheap! i do know that it makes a sound system more efficient.

 

I'm about an hour and a half north of Hood. 35 degrees here this morning . I actually had to turn the heat on for the first time this Fall.

 

Tech's love that crap when it interferes with working on wiring, etc.
I've ripped off sheets on the door doing window regulators etc.
I will say that pack panel is a good echo chamber. Just doing that bare panel will help.
But it's a truck. Mmmmmmm not really a truck per say but it's all they build now.

 

Yeah been there ONCE never again LOL GF had to fly out to Indiana for a quick trip and she pinches pennies till they turn back into slugs of copper. It was 37 dollars cheaper to fly out and return from there. SIGH !!

I understand Mike. I'm not getting to involved with all Interior panels. I'll do the back wall for now and see how it does. I don't like being a opponent and making someone else's job a nightmare. Thanks for the input.

 

Thanks to him and all the rest!
They were most likely colder than us southward.

Got everything to do tranny flush, coolant flush, tstat, belt. But it must wait. The "Romo less" Cowboys play in a bit.

 

Figured it'd be colder up north. We were at 30.

 

My wife is the Cowboys fan. When I was there it was the mid and late 80's and Dallas wasn't having very good seasons.

 

Yep. The Aikman years were great. What a team that was. I got my Dak and Zeke shirt yesterday.
Don't have a Romo shirt.....

 

That can make the short hairs on your neck stand up when the wake you from a dead sleep.

 

Beautiful picture.

There are some on TW that would give you ALL sorts of grief for that picture. Lol

 

Really now??

oink, oink Must have been good food, eh?

If you get an "older" (as in past puppyhood) dog and is paper trained, it shouldn't be an issue. Nothing like having a dog around!!!

Be grateful you have family.

Yeah, me, too. Gonna be dreading it here soon - have never had a dog live longer than 11 yrs and 2 months and Annie turns 11 in 1 month and 2 days. Hoping she breaks the "tradition"

My truck shifted so much better after changing the tranny fluid.

There are times when it's not worth the time/energy to pinch that many pennies

Someone posted the other day hearing coyotes in my sub-division.

Happy Sunday boys!!!

 

at tibbeys listening to jeff howell play!

 

Nice way to fill the tag. My '99 Tacoma had the 2.7 and I wish I had never gotten rid of it. It still is under 90k on it and the only time it gave me trouble was a dead battery. They are very capable rigs.

I don't think he's posted up the dirt car. So he's been hiding it from all of us. No pumpkin pie now either.
