I went with the newer version of the #8 model from LEM. I will report on it after its 1st use

Looking to get a small meat grinder to make sausage. I will probably use it only once a year, to make a small amount. Any ideas what to get?. And what would be the minimum horsepower you guys would use.

Traditions is an excellent shop, where the staff pays attention to detail. I purchased my current bow there, and have had work done in the past on my old bow. As far as targets go, good question. I have had a "black hole" target for 4 years. I usually start shooting heavy in August,and maybe 4 days a week. I rarely shoot "practice" broad head tips as my field points appear to fly just as well. I can no longer shoot the center as the arrow blows threw. That being said, the outter areas are still in good shape,and I should get a few more years out of it. I have used other targets with the same results. Broadheads or practice broadhead tips do a job on any target after time.

Started shooting the Nocturnal lighted nocs. Picked up the green and red..Green seem to be brighter. Shooting in the woods may prove different. Any thoughts?

Traditions archery all the way..They pay attention to detail,and are very helpful. Be advised, they get EXTREMLY busy so be patient. It will be worth your trip. 2199 East Henrietta rd (rt.15a)

late july or early august for a week

My travels will be taking me to E. Falmouth , Mass this summer (cape Cod). Can anyone recommend any fishing charters in that area or within an hours drive. Also what would we be fishing for. I am not familiar with the area at all. Or any other "fishing" type activity ideas are welcomed, ie: lobster boat tour,whale watch,etc,etc.

Thinking about buying this climber. I have the old school "Dicks" brand with the loop and pin assembly for attaching the cables. Whats the opinion on the way the Summitt cables lock in

Going to give it a try this weekend in the southern tier. With the amount of snow in woods,and lack of any tracks (according to my camp neighbors). Can I still expect them to be out. I have an electronic call. First time out so Im kind of looking for advice..Thanks

Huge kudos to the Honeoye fish and game club for a great kids event today. Each child was given a five gallon bucket and a rigged jigging pole at registration. After the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag (Kids joined in, totally cool),there was an informative and entertaining seminar given on basics of ice fishing. It was really great to see so many kids, both boys and girls with their parents in attendance. Then it was out to the ice to give it a try with over 150 pre drilled holes by the staff. I cant count how many times I heard parents say "we never did this before and wanted to see what it's all about). Makes me think back to 45 years ago when my dad took me ice fishing for the first time. We showed up with regular size poles and an axe to get through the ice. But I'm glad we went.

My plan was to have the little guy attend the clinic, and from what I remember Fish around the south end area and maybe get some pickerel on tip-ups,,and a bit of jigging..Sound ok?

SK8man,Thank you sir. Exactly the information I was looking for

taking a friend and his 8 yr old to the kids clinic tomorrow on Honeoye..How are walking conditions due to snow issues. Have not fished there in several years

Does anyone know anywhere in Rochester area that fixes power augers. (broken part at throttle assembly)
