    Why do I keep getting Blocked? I

    The last several times I've tried to get on this forum I get a page that says the security ap has blocked me for being suspicious. I have to E mail Lowlight and ask WTF and in a day or two, I can get back on. What is going on? It happens when I get an e-mail saying a post I've been following has...

    Hunting & Fishing Long Range Hunting

    First the facts. This Sept. I killed a caribou. Nothing unusual there. As I skinned it, I noticed a perfectly round hole in its right ham, or butt check if you will. It was well healed.
