A cute squirrel nest brought my offroad electric cart to an immediate stop.

Every time I see evidence of beaver chewing my uncle's retirement fund (he planted pine trees 10 years ago on some acreage in east texas), I am amazed at how "human" it looks. If we had dropped 10,000 beaver into New Orleans they would have repairs the levies in a week.

I have owned and operated five of these cameras over the last 18 months. They have been in the field probably 50% of the time, regardless of weather conditions. At the end of the day, for $99 when I bought them ($79 now), they are a good camera for what I need. “What I need” of course is the critical part of that sentence.

Shooting one hog at a time, or trapping, just doesn't seem to get the job done. I am not sure if I would get tired of this job.

I have tried many different .308 loads in search of that almost perfect factory load. Of course, when I say "almost perfect factory load" that is because I know if you handload you can make an even more "almost perfect load."

Then, I decided to try to test two brands of subsonic ammo. I bought a box from a company called "Engle Ballistics" at the local high-end gun store where I bought the Remington 700P and John's Gun suppressor. It was over $40/box. I was so excited going out to the ranch and I was so frustrated with the results. I couldn't get a shot better than 1.5" at 100 yards. Compared to the performance from the Federal MatchKing load, I knew the gun could perform, I just had to find the right bullet.

I met James Lucero at the Texas Wildlife Association (TWA) Annual Banquet in June of 2007.  During our travels across Texas – from tradeshows and banquets, to private ranches and passionate guides - we occasionally stumble upon a great product that we want to share with our audience. BOG-POD is one of those finds. Like most reviews we write, we spend a lot of time in the field testing these products in an effort to write an honest review based on our experience.
