    35 Trespassing Violations in 2019

    The best thing from the G&F violation numbers is that total violations among hunters and anglers dropped from 2,500+ in 2017 to around 2,300 last year, a decrease of 8% for a population of roughly 150,000 over a span of just two years, which shows that many recognize the responsibility of doing...

    20.1-05.1-02. Discretionary special allocation hunting license authorization

    Did you know that non-residents can be awarded these tags – emphasizing the Elk and Moose tags because they are resident only tags for the state resident general lottery.

    Vexilar FL-18 vs FL > 18 ???

    The FL8 and 18 are like the old pre-1995 Jiffy Model 30s, they run forever, get the job done, hardly need any upkeep, and can take a beating, plus you can get them for cheap now with the market flooding in the last decade. I haven't been impressed with the target separation on my FL20...

    Sb 2315 - reborn after house gutting!

    I don't think an initiated measure gets it done. We (sportsmen) already have a disastrous history there and there are a LOT of state code factors at play in this whole discussion relating to posting requirements, criminal code, fish & game code, liability code that would make such a measure...

    New to NODAK

    A warm welcome to ND...as you'll be greeted by her icy embrace! Winters in GF can be rough, but the ice is solid. Second on the Devils Lake trip, it gets easy when you know there's always fish to catch just about anywhere. In school I made the drive 2-3x a week in the spring from end of...

    Which wild game meat tastes the best?

    Ruffed Grouse is the king of game birds in the kitchen. Meat as white as chicken and a sweetness to it. Upland game, by my experience in this order: Ruffies, Huns, Pheasant, Sharpies, Doves. Big game, by my experience in this order: Elk, Deer, Moose, Antelope.

    Physical Conditioning for Archery Season

    Don't forget abs. So much of archery is in stability of the core, twisting and turning with angled shots from on high or even just in a blind, not to mention if you're using a climber, abs will save you. I'm doing P90X (the ab routine is the best I've found), running mid-distances 3 times per...
