>>2785613>Yeah this is a different level of boat needs typically.tell me
>>2785614The conditions at sea are not the same as lakes and rivers. If you were just going out on a lake, you could get a rowboat for $100 and have a blast. If you were going on a river, you could drop $1,000 on a used bass boat that could fit 4-5 people and probably be fine. If you are going out on the ocean I wouldn't trust somebody's $1,000 garbage.
>>2785615Alright thanks, I live by the sea and there are no lakes around so that's why I was asking
>>2785616Lucky. I would get a 10 foot rod and surf fish all day if I lived close enough to the coast.
>>2785609see?
Old thread: >>2752854This is a thread for enjoying a pipe while doing outdoor activities. If you ask why this belongs on /out/, you've never spent an evening by the campfire with a pipe silently enjoying the nature around you, and you're missing out.>how to get startedPurchase a Missouri Meerschaum Legend and a pouch of Half and Half or Captain Black tobacco, available at most smoke shops. You will need a lighter or match, and something to tamp it with--a large nail works well if you don't have a pipe tool. Fill the pipe with tobacco, pack it down halfway, top it off, pack it down to 3/4, top it off again, pack gently and enjoy. Smoke slower than you think you need to, the tobacco tastes best when it is burning cool. Tamp and re-light as needed. If you still have trouble, try different methods on YouTube until you find one that works for you.>smoking a pipe will give you cancerWhile any tobacco consumption comes with some risk, the cancer risks from occasional pipe use are pretty minimal. Educate yourself and make your own informed health decisions. Some info here https://aacrjournals.org/cancerpreventionresearch/article/10/12/704/46541/Association-between-Cigar-or-Pipe-Smoking-and>muh weedNot the time or place. Start your own thread>I DON’T LIKE WHAT YOU LIKE REEEEEEThen leave the thread. Pipes have been a part of outdoors culture for centuries. If you don’t like it, leave.
>>2785171With MacBaren and Sutliff blends, it never seems to get dry. I usually do the “delayed gratification” technique with them to get them to burn well. Basically do a char light right before bed, and then let it sit overnight. Then it’ll be good to go in the morning. MacBaren and Sutliff blends tend to bite the hell out of me, so I had to experiment with them because I really do enjoy their flavors.
>>2785226Nothing wrong with Carter Hall. My favorite of the codger blends.
Never tried Escudo despite a lot of people saying it’s the best VAPer out there. It’s excellent. My heart will still always be with Elizabethan, but I could see this taking the #2 spot. Smoking it in my new Radice pipe (another thing I’ve always wanted).
>>2785467i've done the delayed gratification method a couple times beforeit did seem to kill off the bite pretty good & stay lit better, i think i should get more into it

I regularly see idiots off leashing in trails with clearly marked leash rules and often see idiots with dogs in restoration sites clearly marked no dogs at the trailhead (because it's a habitat restoration site).

Dog owners are absolutely dead set on making sure their animals are a nuisance to anyone that happens to unfortauntely be nearby.

>>2785603I don't even know what this thread is about, literally didn't read. I just saw your retarded post and decided to chime in. I've been making fires and splitting wood since I was a kid. I can't imagine how new you would have to be to the outdoors to think that's anything special.

My camera refused to focus on the center of the tomato so this is the best I got, but the single slicer I got ripe this year was a mystery strain. I had two plants that were "Who knows!" discounts for 25 cents, they both had carolina gold tags, but neither one looks like the tomato on the picture so I have no clue what this tomato strain is.REGARDLESS OF THAT BLOG.It had really cool red streaks running through it that looked like it was bleeding it was cool. Also it was absurdly sweet, uncomfortably sweet. I probably would not have eaten many of them if I had actually gotten more anyways because of said sweetness.

Hello anons,I'm looking for a cheap (~100/120 euros) digital camera to ous when going /out/, preferably with a rechargeable lithium battery.Complete noob in this field, what are you suggestions?
>>2785508how to cope with the built in microhpone being sensitive to wind? Putting a small sock over the tail end of my iphone when recording outside feels really retarded
>>2785512You can get an external microphone with that fuzzy filter thingy for way less than 100 euros
>~100/120 eurosLOLlmao even
>>2785521Fuck camera elitists.I am hella rich and REFYOOZ to spend munny.NO, I will not spend 1000 on a lensNO, I will not spend 2000 on a camera bodyNO, I don't care what a DSLR vs Mirrorless isI just want simple pull out, click, stick back in pocketI will laff with glee as the camera industry dies due to filthy casuals like myself with our shitty cameraphonesFUCK CAMERANIGGERS
>>2785507As long as you have a reasonably new smartphone, you'll get better results with that than a cheap digital camera unless you're looking for that CCD sensor look. t. hikes with a dslrnosaur
>Tara Dower completed the Appalachian trail in just 40 days becoming the fastest person to finish itMale bros it's over, how are we coping?
That's a dude innit?
For clarification she ran the Appalachian Trail. She did not carry a backpack and hike it.

>>2785562>>2785570Even though she wasn't carrying supplies with her, to complete it in 40 days she still was running on average the equivalent to two marathons a day. Pretty impressive. >how are we coping?What's there to seethe and cope about? How about just be nice instead?
Anyone else kind of conflicted with how to handle a heating source? I see so many people now using those soulless buddy heaters, but I'm worried about carbon monoxide. With a traditional fire it just makes everything smell like smoke for months, if not years if you keep it in a container. A stove is big and heavy, and a little collapsible wood stove is not going to really keep you warm, and is still going to put out smoke.What do you guys prefer for Oct-Nov camping before the snow hits the mountains?
>>2783417I was here when this board was made and besides a few /out/ has been mainly larpers.
>>2780522>Anyone else kind of conflicted with how to handle a heating source?Your body is a heating source. Just dress better.
>>2780522Use a soulless buddy heater inside the tent.

previous thread: >>2765467
I'm looking to get into archery and be somewhat competent with a bow in time for next year's deer season. I have a few questions I'm hoping you guys could answer>What bow should I get? (western USA)>Should I get a bow for learning and then a real hunting bow, or can one do both jobs?>Should I only be looking at compound bows, or are there other types that are worth my attention?>If you don't have any specific recommendations, what qualities should I look for to get a quality bow and avoid a shitter?>What price range should I shoot for?>What arrows should I get, both practice field tips and hunting broadheads>What's a realistic goal I can expect for accuracy/distance?>I've already been on a rifle hunt this year and had enough gear for that. Is there anything extra I should bring for bow hunting?and finally>Are there any good resources you think I should read/watch?
>>2785445My advice would be buy a used name brand compound bow from eBay and then take it to a shop and get it looked over and setup for you. (Usually just a new string and some minor adjusting)> Bowtech, bear, Matthews doesn't really matter just research fps per draw weight and buy what you can afford> If your shooting poundage is 60lbs+ get a single pin sight (you can get these on eBay for cheap)> Keep your shots under 30 yards (the deer can hear arrows coming in and WILL move before it gets to where you aimed > Shoot heavy arrows (heavy grain per inch carbon arrows)> Heavy fixed blade broadheads only (100grain+) mechanicals are a meme> Sharpen your broadheads> Use a release> Whisker bisket arrow rests are great and cheap > A three arrow quiver is all you need for normal hunting (a bigger quiver just adds weight to your wrist and is cumbersome in a tree stand)Or just say fuck it and buy a decent crossbow package.
>>2785445Go to a pro shop and get one fitted and setup for you. Don't buy from ebay or used. Get setup right the first time and have the guys at the shop teach you how to shoot correctly. They should be able to answer all your questions if they're competent.
Closing weekend is coming up. Got asked if I want to get out 1 more time, but I checked the weather and they expect almost a foot of snow. Not taking a 4 hour drive to go take a chance in the snow for a few hours and back.
>>2785390In the fall, your goal is to bust up the flock, find a good spot to "hide" and call with a kee kee run, simulating a lost turkey trying to regroup. In the fall, hens call to hens and toms/jakes call to toms/jakes. So if you're looking to take a bearded bird, practice jake yelps as well. They're very similar to hen yelps, but more drawn out.
Can you tell what this fruit is called?pic taken in northern dalmatia, croatia
>>2785487We call em crab apples. The cows love them. Supposedly they can choke on them but I've never seen it. They pick the entire thing in their mouth and crush it before swallowing.
>>2785529Crab apples are entirely different.
>>2785487Those are tennis balls
>>2785488>>2785516It is also used for scents.
Old wives tale states they can be used to ward off pests/insects when cut in half and placed in corners of rooms
Is November too late to start /out/ing as a first timer? Anything in particular I should know about?
>>2785343>>2785356Britbong? You'll be fine lad. Just have a decent 3 or 4 season sleeping bag. Weather will probably be shit so don't let that put you off /out/ing in general
>>2785372Thanks m8. Any entry level bags/tents you recommend? Or does anything go at my level? Does a 0°C comfort temperature count as 4 season sleeping bag?
Why Dont You Go Outside Instead Of Posting About It
>>2785385I'd say 0C is more like a 3 season, would probably do for this time of year as long as you're not sleeping on a mountain. Can't give you too much advice really, I bought a cheap 3 season viking trek bag off Amazon a couple of years ago for £30. Still going strong and have comfortably been down to 3-4C no problem. Do your own research though, I'm sure there's much better stuff out there depending on your budget. Not sure about tents, been looking for one myself. The Vango 1/2 man ones seem to be pretty decent. A lot of people like the naturehike cloud up, my brother has one and it gives you a lot of space but I don't think they're great in wind.As a beginner /out/ist in the UK, you can't go far wrong with the D of E recommended kit, tends to be cheap and decent. I don't trust it myself cause there's so much Vango stuff on the list that it makes me think there's some dodgy dealings going on.
>>2785343Just don't go far so you can run back inside if you get soaked and frozen or something. Do little day hikes in your area and try spending nights outside in your backyard.
