Having been in the land and timber business for over 20 years I'll throw my 2 cents in. FW is a great program and I am all for it. Public lands account for a very small percentage, around 2-3% I believe, of the total land mass of the state. The way FW is structured makes more sense to me than...

Not exactly on the bench but close enough. A little over 1000 bd ft of gulf coast tupelo, 2" to 6" thick and up to 12" by 48" width and length, stacked in the shop and ready to go. I have plenty if any of you guys need some. It would take me two lifetimes at the rate I'm going to get a foredom...

Eric, thank for the tip on Hardwoods Inc. I would love to sit down and talk to them. Might work it out for Friday morning if I finish in Memphis early enough. We would be a dimensional operation and offer paneling/flooring that is solid hardwood. As far as paneling/flooring, we would have to go...

We are going to wholesale the lumber for the most part. I have a friend that is a lumber broker. Supply of raw materials won't be a problem. We are already set up to buy/sell, log, and manage timber land. If anything we will have too much supply of green logs. The big markets are not the...

A partner of mine and I are looking into getting a saw mill. Not a small portable one but a fairly high production mill. My question is this for the wood guys on the forum. Will a specialty paneling, furniture grade lumber or cabinet stock, such as oak, yellow poplar, black cherry, persimmon...

Way to go Thomas. It's nothing like a kid's first duck. I have had the opportunity to see my daughter and nephew bag their first this year.

Great hunt Thomas. Try and keep dad awake next time.

Thanks guys. I couldn't be more proud of her. Shortly after informing me that she wanted to get some more ducks, she pointed out she has yet to bag a deer. Looks like I'll be in the blind at some point this year. Funny thing about her shooting. She has yet to miss anything I have told her to...

Here is Sydney's first duck. Mallard hen shot at 20 yards with a 20 ga. She has informed me it will not be the last. I have been so fortunate to see her get her first duck and Brutus (black lab) perform almost flawlessly in his first season. We had to go check out the wings over the...

Coot carving was on again today. Jon and I put in about 5 hours working on heads. Did get one complete that has an itch he can't get rid of. Sydney thought it was cool anyway. I can't take complete credit for this one. Jason Russell has had the idea for a while but I beat him to it. I have one...

With our second one on the way I understand where you are coming from. I hope all is well and if you are going to Children's Hospital then you should feel in the BEST care available. I have had some experience with Children's and have nothing but GREAT THINGS to say about them. Will be praying...

TOO BAD Espy and I are going to have to "BORROW" them since you are occupied on the oppener. If you want, we can come by your house after we limit, put them in the river and shoot them a time or two so they don't feel left out. Or at the very least, rub a little blood on them while we are...

Feeling frisky: $400.00

C'mon guys. A decoy this rich in history and JINX should be worth some serious $$$$$ I'll raise it to $300.00

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry I'm going to miss this one. I have REALLY enjoyed West Lake the past couple of years. I am planning on mailing a couple of birds in to be laughed at in the pool. I, like Jason and Jon have not gotten the urge/had the time to carve anything since the season went out...
