Yeah, I never understood the guys that had to have their entire set of gear be in the same matching camo pattern. And I've encountered A LOT of bros where that was an absolute must.....the notion of having shadow grass bibs and a real tree shirt and an advantage parka = white trash

These guys for sure vape.....and they consider their "gun powder" vape flavor being puffed in the blind akin to Nash Buckingham smoking good tobacco out of a pipe.

I was about 3 seconds away from jumping over the **** meat counter last night at the local coborns and clocking the 2 douches that kept saying bro back and forth. First time hearing the term my phag alert went off, each time after my rage escalated to the point I was standing there looking at them shaking my head til they noticed and proceeded to coward themselves.

Coupled with shouting **** you to the "impeach Trump" protesters on the overpass at Portland and 494 in Bloomington Thursday evening in rush hour traffic, was a great week.

The guy that does all the photos/marketing is Lee Kjos. Can spot his work a mile away as it essentially all looks the same. That said, he is a legit waterfowl hunter and can’t hate on a guy for finding a niche and making a living as a marketer. Gotta work to your audience, and his audience just happens to be overwhelmingly douchebags. I used to be acquaintances with one of the “models” Kjos used in all of the various ad campaigns. Guy had a pretty sweet gig and literally had a polebarn full of free shit he got to keep from working/modeling for all of the various brands.

Tripping through podcasts while touring the countryside and having beers with people, cane across Fowl Front Podcast :59 - Boss Shotshells.... Your "Lee" dude is a Partner in Boss.

The founder guy, he owns a metal plating business, been in his family for over 50 years. They aren't making money and aren't as big as the story they tell.

Heading owned my own businesses for a number of years I can tell you they are doing it right: 1) industry expert in the sales/marketing side; 2) a process they can control through in house manufacture/low capital expense; 3) neither has to rely on the Boss business to afford their families.

The faster a company rises the more Likely they can afford the rise, looked have some inside connection yo the industry, and can take losses for market share growth.

Hadn't heard of them until the Bro-lugy when the dude died in SD. Near as I can tell, the copper plating bismuth is keeping the shot less brittle.
