Experience with the "Decked" truck bed storage system?
Posted by swampthing on 2/29/24 at 9:08 am
I'm looking for input on the "Decked" truck-bed storage system. I could use the storage but don't like the amount of space (height - wise) that it takes up. How difficult are they to take in/out once they have been installed?

Tactacam gets my vote.
I have used Moultrie, Cuddebak, etc... The first Moultrie cell cams worked great - and then they came out with a new and improved version, which (for me), didn't work as well.
I purchased 8 tactacams 2 years ago. 6 of them are still working strong - the other 2 were s

re: Down the AI Rabbit Hole Again. Luxury POW Camp in Mississippi during WWII.

My father grew up outside of Clinton and went to school in Clinton. He grew up in the 1930's/early 40's. He told me about the pow camp in Clinton and how the kids would stand outside the fences and watch the prisoners.

re: Having a car shipped
Posted by swampthing on 12/21/22 at 12:15 pm
set it up thru Uship. Carriers will bid on your transport - you select who carries it. I shipped one from Chicago to BR in September and used an enclosed trailer. Very efficient.
Based on the car's value, decide whether to get the trip insured.

re: Wyoming antelope hunt
Posted by swampthing on 12/14/22 at 6:09 am
No guide needed. We got tags in Eastern Wyoming and stayed in a mom/pop motel in a small town. Get On/x on your phone (or similar) so you know where you are on public land. Go hunt.
re: Basic scope recommendations for a 10/22 (BSA Merit badge related)
Posted by swampthing on 11/22/22 at 4:36 pm
I have a Vortex Crossfire II (2-7 x 32) rimfire scope which works great. On Amazon they are 129 bucks - you can probably find them cheaper.
take it for what's worth (I just provided free information - you get what you pay for )
