    Who knew there are yellow chokecherries?

    I remember seeing yellow chokecherries once in a while way back when I was a kid. Didn't like the taste of chokecherries so never tried them to see if they tasted different.

    Young of the year.

    Have seen literally no pheasants this spring and summer so far. Even the roosters never showed up in most of their usual crowing spots this spring. Haven't seen this few birds for many many years. Will be hitting the back county roads for 2-3 months in SW ND in a couple of weeks so I will get...

    Canada geese

    Has anyone else noticed that there are fewer batches of Canada geese goslings this year? I go past a couple of small ponds/dams every day and in past years there were usually 2 or 3 families paddling around by the end of April or in May. See a few adults on the water now but not one batch of...

    17 HMR vs. 17 WSM

    Going on my third year with a BMag heavy barrel and I love it. Had a .22 WRM and tried to shoot pdogs with it and gave up. No problem hitting them out to about 125 yards but they all crawled or ran away unless hit just right. They seldom do that now with the BMag and the range is 250 yards...

    Boyds gunstocks

    Got a Boyd's Thumbhole laminate for my Savage BMag 17 WSM. Had to take the Dremel grinder to the magazine cavity to open it up a little bit so the magazine would latch in. Still needs some convincing to get it to latch but I think that was because the action didn't sit down in the stock as far...

    Badlands hiking

    We used to trail ride a lot in the badlands and seldom followed the marked trails so we often got into pretty rough stuff. Probably saw fewer than a half dozen rattlers in all the years and even though we all bailed off our horses the moment someone shouted "SNAKE" we only managed to kill one...

    Sign of spring

    Saw 3 Meadow Larks sitting on the side of the highway day before yesterday. They did not look happy.

    Doggone

    Recently a good friend lost her 14 year old family dog and she was a total mess for days. She told me she would never have another dog and this is what I told her. She said it helped her a lot. "I know it's hard to lose someone who has loved you so unconditionally for so long but don't pass...

    Mn DNR Moose population stats

    I don't think 2/3 of all the young moose born are killed by wolves. The way it is worded it means 2/3 of the young moose that die are killed by wolves. But then, who knows if they know how to write grammatically correctly. If 1000 calves are born and 2/3 die that is 666. If wolves kill 2/3...

    22 rifles

    Back in the early '70's I had a pretty little 10/22 that was so incredibly accurate it was scary. Put a 4x Weaver scope on it and it would shoot into one hole unless I sneezed while aiming. My favorite targets were blackbirds at the top of a swaying cottonwood tree. Just leaned up against the...

    WTI crude oil to hit $70 in 2018?? above?

    You sir seem to be one of the few people on this site that understands how tangled together the worlds economies have become and how little our president can do to change that. As of right now he has done virtually nothing to affect our economy. He points to the stock market rise but that is...

    Good advice to the next generation

    I neither like nor dislike you, I don't know you. However I do not like your personal attack on me for no reason. All I have to judge you on is your immature remarks. I don't go to Facebook to fight with people. If that's what you want to do lets do it right here but I do hate to fight with...

    Good advice to the next generation

    WTF! Just what message are you bringing to this discussion anyway? I agree with some simple observations and I'm putting myself up on a mighty stool? Who the fuck elected you the king of the turd pile? I really don't like it when people call each other nasty names on this forum but you...

    Good advice to the next generation

    Thanks FC. Someone posted it on my FB page and like a rookie I assumed they had checked it out. I will let them know who really wrote it.
