While we have had our differences over the years he is a pretty good guy, takes great pictures, and knows a lot about a lot of different things. He has presented points of view that changed my opinion on some issues and I have learned from him. Disagreeing with me does not make him a bad guy and he was treated poorly to say the least on Christ at the Campfire.

Yea. He's endured some tough blows and I may be a minority, but I still get a lot out of his posts and enjoy reading them for the most part.


I will also admit that I'm still interested in what Stick has to say when it comes to rifles. Yes he's changed and he certainly has caused some issues over the years. But the amount of knowledge he has is amazing.

A PM exchange with him some months ago lined me up for retirement. I am thankful for that.

Well.....But it allowed you to "out" Blaine [aka AFP] as a douchebag [first time I ever used that word] and, as I recall,'Stick dusted him up pretty good as well.

FWIW... I THINK I remember the first "off the wall" comment I read on the 'fire. We were discussing bird dogs and I mentioned Ol' Fred being the best meat dog I ever saw, except for being "hardmouthed".

One response, by a poster I don't recall, revealed that we had among our membership a person who had no respect for the sport of hunting.

We have more than one, now.

interested if its on investments! grin

it used to be more facts from actual provable experimentation and use, now its more opinion and call out threads, not as many men on here that actually hunt, camp, shoot, reload, rebarrel/build rifles and a lot more that read about it on the internet and just want to be seen as "an expert". (disclaimer I am not shooting as much as I used to but do kill a few deer every year). What is sort of incredible are the guru's that post on here now with zero proof of their authenticity, then the nut jobs from different planets, folks ate up with hate for this group or that, and yet we respond to them.

Man, I'm with you 100%. I joined because there was little bickering. You could post questions and get experienced answers without worrying about getting lit up. The classifieds were cool too. I remember reading stuff and thinking this place was full of good guys that just wanted to talk about hunting and shooting.


Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

not all the members vibrate on the same octave level.
if we all looked, talked, and believed alike, how much fun would that be?

Different strokes for different folks are fine. However I see no need for vulgar language nor telling a poster you disagree with to GFY. This seems to happen too often lately and has done nothing to add anything to this forum.

Don't need to know how to be crude, rude and type drunk. Their are websites for that as also religious websites.

Come here for hunting, fishing, firearms, and all other knowledge other than the above. If I wanted the above I would go to the poo hall. GW

Yeah but with the fire there's no need to go to the trouble of going to the pool hall, strip bar or honky tonk. Lot less chance of a DUI or falling over in a snow drift on the way home and freezing off your cojones.

We all can't tell people to GFY as disguised as Ken Howell.

Not all of "us" try to disguise it. Some are outwardly hateful and proud of it.

Now don't go slandering GFY, to some on this forum the term GFY is a term of endearment, not meant to impune someone's character. whistle
