Ammunition in checked luggage should be fine, but it must be declared, and the international standard is a limit of 5kg (11 lbs). Definitely call the airline ASAP ton find out their specific requirements for firearms and ammunition, including possible required advanced notice to the airline...

Depends on what kind of tools you have. You can get 2x4s cheap, build the base with them, and rip a couple to fill out the frame. Then you can hang any kind of burlap or camp net from the frame. The art is fastening branches to everything to break up the silhouette. "Brushing in" blinds...

Go ahead and buy the Pelican. The TSA only cares about your locks. Your guns care about the case.

That sounds like a much better solution than cutting and spraying. Pop it out of the ground, pile it up, then come back later and cut it up and burn it.

I buy from Merit Seed in Ohio. They have good prices and good shipping. I have purchased specialty seeds from Green Cover, but they are more expensive. Large bags of rye or soybeans I would try to source locally because the shipping will be expensive no matter who you order from.

You'll have to kill it, and you'll probably need to harrow it.

Beauty. You should have it taxidermied.

That should work pretty well. It's probably how I would do it if I had the same resources. There are some decent resources out there regarding bush honeysuckle: https://ohioline.osu.edu/factsheet/F-68 https://research.fs.usda.gov/treesearch/27824 Be prepared to spot spray young honeysuckle...

I got two possums and a kitten s far. I felt sorry for the kitten, so I let it go. The raccoons are difficult to catch and inconsistent in their behavior and location.

A brush hog probably won't be sufficient on the honeysuckle you are describing. You would probably need a forestry mulcher. I would recommend recruiting a second person to help. You'll need someone to drive the machine, and a second person to paint concentrated gly onto the stumps. There...

My cameras are showing mostly random activity. The biggest bucks and most of the does have disappeared in the last couple days. But there is a new buck, a small 9 point, who has been hitting the scrape and feeding in the plot. The bigger bucks showed up at the scrape a few days ago, but they...

We just put up beadboard in my sister's historic house. She painted it, and it looks pretty nice. Menards has pine beadboard crazy cheap...

I accept that the risk is low, but the potential consequences are unacceptable to me. I don't think CWD is understood well enough at this point for me to be confident in eating meat containing it. Prions in general are poorly understood.

I would never knowingly eat meat from a CWD positive deer. Just not worth the risk.

Cabela's has plenty of 28 gauge ammo, especially if you don't mind shooting lead. Other metals can be hard to find.
