This isn't saw related, but...
Spring turkey hunting opened today in WI, and I got a Jake around 7:00 PM with a 20ga. Sure, a nice 25# Tom with an 11" beard is nice and all, but a bird in the freezer is worth at least two in the bush.

Don't usually post pics w/ myself in them, but this is kinda special. Made good memories hunting with dad today. Pic kinda sucks.

Do any of you guys turkey hunt?

Here's one I'm sure you guys came across after cutting about 10 cord with my 353 husqavarna I have to stop and clean it out as it gets to hot in warmer weather now. That's a 2006 saw. Now my 1974 77 husqavarna never has this problem at all . In fact in 2014 winter I cut 20 cord that winter with 77 and worked perfect . And it wasn't untill 2016 winter I cleaned it out because you could smell burning oak after I put the .404 chain on . Now when they make newer saws they try and make you believe there better . I'm finding out old saws are more in it for long haul !!

Yep, my sweet spot is the 80's and 90's model saws. Got some comfort features like anti-vibe and chain brake, but weren't all choked up by EPA and the accountants.
