    Deer Baiting Ban

    The best part of this whole thing is how terrified some people are of losing their precious corn pile. Its crazy to me how passionately people will defend the easy button. Is it a knee jerk reaction? Absolutely. Reading through this I see mention of other states that have tried banning baiting...

    Badlands mule deer

    I have a masters degree in wildlife biology and have worked in the field for more than 15 years. I think I have a grasp of the general concept. Genetic diversity will not directly correlate to bigger deer. A healthier population yes. Disease outbreak is prevalent among high density populations...

    Badlands mule deer

    Please provide source for this information..... The only thing that even makes a lick of sense is that there would be more deer left after a harsh winter.

    Badlands mule deer

    I truly feel deer numbers are great in the badlands right now and with another mild winter will be very good. It will just take a couple more years to get the big bucks back. I think not shooting doe for a number of years was really hard on mature bucks. As anyone knows muledeer doe are very...

    Greedy Thursday/ Thanksging

    Although I agree with that is primarily the greed of the big stores. A lot has to do with the employees wanting to be able to work. A vast majority of them are part time and don't get a full days holiday pay. They need to work to pay the bills. Now one could argue these stores should give...

    Redneck Bale Blind

    Had the same issue with mine. Bought some tie down stakes from petco used to hold a dog chain. They are screw shaped with flights. No more issues.

    Hell of a year for giant muleys.

    Lol good luck. But in all honesty I think they need to take a look at the muley youth season. Not against giving the kids tags, but think they should move the season to october or only regular season. It is way to east in September and alot of big bucks get whacked.

    shooting fall turkeys from a permanent blind

    Other than originally calling it "shooting fish in a barrel" I never said anything about the method used. Which sense that point I apologized for how i conveyed my thoughts.

    shooting fall turkeys from a permanent blind

    Again, I shouldn't have attacked you directly, that was wrong of me and I apologize. I would have been better suited bringing up a separate discussion/topic about my feelings on how hunting is changing. I obviously realize the kill is very important part of the process. After all it is the end...

    shooting fall turkeys from a permanent blind

    I don't care at all that you are hunting off a feeder. I think you get the gist of my point tho. Worried about having to spend a couple extra days in the field prompted my comment. I shouldn't have directly attacked you its more of a generality I see across the hunting world. I often here people...

    shooting fall turkeys from a permanent blind

    So if I read correctly, your worried about ruining your shooting fish in a barrel scenario. Hunting has become something I am not always proud of anymore. Its great they want to get out and hunt and you taking them is good. Where did hunting go though? Everything is about the kill nowadays.

    Waterfowl Report

    Well it happened, had a great spot and had a couple really good shoots. Saturday rolled around and the blue boat parade showed up. Offered to let them sit with us in the field to try and save the roost. Nope they were having none of that and went straight to the big water. Sunday evening not a...

    Anyone seeing any roosters?

    Still alot more roosters around than 20 years ago. I have been seeing good numbers now that the beans and corn are coming off. It won't be the good old days of hunting an hour a day for 3 birds but opportunities will still be plentiful.

    How to pinpoint the "X"?

    The anti-technology age coming through strong here. Yes anyone can look and remember where the birds are but there are ways which make it much easier. Also guys are traveling a lot more into new areas. If you are not familiar with the area its easy to get turned around in the dark. I bet 50...

    How to pinpoint the "X"?

    Depending on your permission. I like to sit there till the birds leave the field. Mostly for two reasons. I like to know where the majority are roosting and than I can drive out while their location is still fresh in my mind and drop a pin in google maps. That way in the morning I know exactly...
