    But I sure feel like one being fortunate to find this doe on the last day of deer season on Camp Pendleton.

    Take the "what gauge shotgun do you use for upland game" Poll...

    My Benelli Supernova 12 gauge is the only shotgun I own and I use it to hunt all upland game. My 9 year old son just got his hunting license and saved up for a Mossberg 510 Mini 20 gauge and will be going out for some doves once the season hits.

    Nice Review about Ruger American

    I think I'll be making a trip to Turner's with my daughter so she can get a feel for it.

    Kids and wife just got their license!

    I hadn't thought about the .260, but now you've given me something else to consider. As for ammo, I do reload, so I plan on working some loads once I decide which caliber to get. So far I am leaning towards the 7mm-08 because of it's versatility. Thanks everyone!

    Nice Review about Ruger American

    I was looking at the Ruger American for my daughter since she just got her license. After doing a very brief look at some reviews I read how the stock is horrible and that it flexes so much to the point it touches the barrel when resting on something... I've never held one in person, but I'd...

    Trolling for the first time

    Thanks for the gouge MJB! I have a a 10' Bigwater Ugly Stick with a Okuma Avenger Baitfeeder ABF90. Do you think this would be fine or would you recommend something different?

    Trolling for the first time

    Lol, yes I am! Any experience? What kind of setup did you use?

    Kids and wife just got their license!

    That's what I've heard about the .243. Again, I've never shot either one, but would it be safe to say that it is less forgiving with shot placement than the 7mm-08? Anyone ever shot both? Would love to hear your thoughts on the differences.

    Trolling for the first time

    That's exactly what I was thinking. Biggest setup I have right now is a 10' Bigwater Ugly Stick with a Okuma Avenger Baitfeeder ABF90... If that doesn't cut it, I may have to pay a visit to my pops for a loaner.

    Trolling for the first time

    Dang...Not sure how fast, but I figure we'll be going faster than that. Maybe around 10-12 knots.

    Trolling for the first time

    I may have sail from Coronado to San Clemente Island for work and figure I'd bring a pole and troll. The trouble is I've only fished from jetties, piers, and the occasional charter boat, but never have I trolled before. Not even sure what species I'd be targeting. Can anyone recommend a setup...

    Kids and wife just got their license!

    I'm stoked because my wife and kids just got their hunting license. We've always gone out hunting together, but this will be the first time we all hunt together. Nine year old boy and eleven year old girl. My daughter will be 12 next year and I'm looking at getting her either a .243 or...

    I hunt on base since I'm pretty familiar with the area.
