    MN Wolves and Low Deer Numbers

    Legislation based on how pretty and majestic wolves are has overruled common sense. Look at Idaho elk numbers since packs were re-introduced. Not saying they don’t have their place, but they need to be controlled just like anything else when they start causing problems.

    Tag Soup poll

    ND is about 97% private land that the game and fish can’t touch. Not their fault there is no habitat. Things were pretty bleak for decades in the state until the populations took off in the 90s. Lots of people with short memories or just feel like they should see big bucks everywhere on the...

    CWD survey Mich St Univerisity

    I forgot to mention I purposely linked a old article since anything new would just be considered propaganda by some. And saying they shot infected material up a deers nose is disingenuous. Kind of shows how you have to resort to exaggerating to prove your point. In the study, 2 fawns received 50...

    CWD survey Mich St Univerisity

    Funny, you’re a property rights org but think you should control others’ property if it isn’t in agricultural production. Are there bag limits on private property? Can you use lead for waterfowl on private property? When you are talking regulating game animals (which belong to everybody), like...

    CWD survey Mich St Univerisity

    Everyone loves to cherry pick bits of research to to prove they’re right, but are quick to mock “the science” as nothing but fundraising when it doesn’t support their cause. Ask yourselves why the farm bureau crowd of all people are so involved with the CWD argument.

    2023 ND Deer Rifle Season

    Agreed, but how badly things were bungled have made it so “science” is a bad word that will get you discredited; and I think we need to get past that. I’ve seen idiocracy.

    2023 ND Deer Rifle Season

    Right, we can talk nutrition all we want but supplemental feed is not the answer. Most of a deer’s diet is browsing woody plants for leaves, buds, twigs. Especially in winter. They move to wide open crops when they’re desperate to survive, not it because it’s preferred. It’s said a deer needs to...

    2023 ND Deer Rifle Season

    The game and fish hasn’t been perfect, but I wouldn’t call their tactics mismanagement. I came across this graph on another ND hunting site: Pretty much shows that tags are based on population, and population correlates with habitat. The illusory truth effect of “game and fish bad” is strong...

    Don't Leave In The Gut Pile

    Just could never stomach the metallic taste of liver. Supposedly you crave it if you’re starving. Haven’t been there yet.

    North dakota tunnel

    I love stuff like that. ND has some awesome history that if you dig, you can end up in some cool rabbit holes. The battlefields, gold wagon trails, trapper and pioneer life are all really interesting. The heritage center in Bismarck has a couple guns found out there made in the 1700s. A family...

    2023 ND Deer Rifle Season

    I’ve seen WT bucks and only bucks on my way to and from work. Most are following a scent and completely aloof. Going to have to try hunt thanksgiving day.

    2023 ND Deer Rifle Season

    Muleys were fighting and following does today in the badlands. Good numbers. Not full blown chasing yet. More whitetails than usual. And by that I mean two. Chance at a good one was messed up by a group doing drives, but oh well. Saw some deer, saw a couple elk, lots of sharptails. Good day.

    Farm Bureau Boy

    He will be on tomorrow claiming you guys are on the game and fish payroll. Gabe will call in and claim there is going to be more land going up posted than ever since the game and fish is pushing them around (not true). Both will claim it’s the G&F fault all the deer starved to death (not true)...

    Read their bylaws if you get a chance. Pretty standard thought process from NDFB.

    Wyoming all you can kill

    Couldn’t tell ya. A lot I suppose. But at best it would increase the number of elk on public land and do nothing for the overpopulation on private. Carrying capacity shows they are doing just fine where they are. I’m never going to disparage dollars being spent on conservation. However I’d like...

    Wyoming all you can kill

    But that would take tax dollars :eek: I’m mostly kidding Fritz, just fun in’. It’s interesting though so many jump to the conclusion that feeding wild game is the final answer. Without looking in to it, I can almost guarantee there is public land in the subject area with plenty of food and...

    Wyoming all you can kill

    Thought you might chime in Dwight. You’re kind of like beetlejuice, say the words farm, bureau, and elk and appear. What are your thoughts on the article? I think “Give out a million tags. You’re still not going to knock down the elk herd because there’s no way for hunters to get in there and be...

    Wyoming all you can kill

    I’m not well versed in SD’s posted water issues. South Dakota’s walk in program is pretty good. The pheasant access program around Aberdeen I saw on a recent episode of Meateater was interesting. Basically the area folks saw that access, habitat, birds, and in turn hunters and their dollars were...
