Just a few guys from central MN who love to hunt, fish, and smoke meat. We love to tell stories and discuss what could have made the outcome of those stories even better. We are hoping that our stories and input can help others skip over some of the tougher times that we've had in the outdoors. We don't know all the answers, but maybe some of the insight that we have can help you out. We aren't trying to take ourselves too seriously, so sit down crack a beer and take a listen.
