Composite Decking
other than cost, not much downside with composite. you can minimize cost by using PT for structure and most of the railing, other than where you actually put your hands. def follow the spanning and especially gapping/spacing requirements. lighter colors hold the heat less. just pressure wash...- davsco

Fishing Kayak recommendations.
no help, but reminds me of night shark fishing in the outer banks. we'd get some big tuna heads and row them out from the surt a few hundred yards. pretty friggin surreal out there with a bloody tuna head and big hook in the total dark. landing in the dark surf was fun too.- davsco

Do your kids shoot?
good to see all of this! shooting and hunting will be no more if a generation is partially or fully skipped. some of the best times i ever had were spending the day pheasant hunting, walking the cornfields with my dad, uncle and cousins. or going up behind my granddad's in the coal mtns...- davsco

Elk Hunting Rifles, What are you Using?
let's just say i didn't feel overgunned at all on my two elk with 300wsm and 180g federal trophy bonded tips, but sample size of only two. first one, big cow at 200yds. perfect hit, and ran some with the other cow beside her. after they ran, i couldn't tell which one i hit as they both seemed...- davsco

Not sure how to “sight in” my glock
if it groups good (?) then it's as simple as drifting the back sight left or right, and getting a different height front sight (and possibly a diff height back sight depending on how much it's off). as mentioned above, hit dawsonprecision.com or call them and they'll let you know what you need...- davsco

Best caliber for big game at 400 plus yards
i got elk a few years back with tikka 300 wsm (fed 180 trophy bonded tips) at 200 and 400yds and didn't feel overgunned at all. going again this year and it will be the 300wsm again, or 7prc (also tikka), not sure which yet. the hornady factory eld-x loads (200g for the 300 and 175g for the...- davsco

Firefighters shot responding to wildfire in North Idaho
not like riders are riding every square inch of the forest. not even close. even a 50 mile system of trails is taking way, way less than a square mile of land. plenty of opportunity to get well away from any trails. and a number of the groups i'm aware of actually spend a fair amount of...- davsco
