A little advice when choosing a shot gun. Let the user hold it sort of at the waist. Tell him to close his eyes and shoulder the gun. Now let him open his eyes and choose the one where the front and rear of the barrel are on the same plane with his eyes.
I have two tickets for today and tomorrows game that I can't use.

If the main power line is on the side of the road install a second service line with its own meter going to the lift..
I have 2 tickets and can't make it.

The best is Eley. The price may give you sticker shock but they come with a 10 year warranty. All of their products are bullet proof.

Give cajun Cj's a try. Jambalaya is also good. Crawfish pie not so much. I make it a little different than the directions. If you decide to use it I can give you my recipe.

for most fish the 300 works fine, for 25# and above I would use the 400.

I'm pulling for Ole Miss
I like most on here don't cut the sternum anymore. Back in the day when I did I used the knife below. The serrated edge would make it an easy cut.

Besides treating the mound with Bifen, you need to spray the whole yard.
You can't go wrong buying the commercial side of Exmark, Scag or Kubota.

Consider the distance to get it serviced.

I bought these and they slice thru chicken with ease. Whatever you buy make sure they come apart for cleaning.

1. Mix baking soda with a few drops of water to form a paste. Apply it to the sticky area and let it sit for 10-15 minutes. Gently scrub with a soft cloth or sponge in a circular motion, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

2. Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Lightly mist the area and let it sit for a few minutes. Wipe clean with a cloth and dry the surface.

3. Apply Goo Gone Drip-Free Spray Gel Adhesive Remover

4. Acetone

5. Sand top

re: R&V Works-Like Fryer Question

Why don't you call R&V and see what they say.
I set it in a sink full of water plus put a zip lock bag of ice cubes in the middle.
I had a similar problem. I decided to go with 120 gal stand up tank. Gas company I bought from would send a truck to fill it whenever I called.

re: Tips for smoked pulled ham

Posted by rodnreel on 11/6/25 at 7:25 am to
No spiral cut, but bone in. Try to find a ham cooked in natural juices. Fricks is one brand some stores carry but they can be difficult to find, If not get one with "water added".

Score skin. Combine 1/2 cup liquid smoke with 1/2 cup real maple syrup.

Inject 1/2 of mixture in ham, put other half of mixture in aluminum pan with ham. Smoke at 275-300 until ham's temp is 210 or so turning over several times. Feel the bone and if it wiggles easy it's done.

Let rest 15 minutes covered then pull. I like to have the pulled pieces much larger than pulled pork. Larger than bite size.
