    Minnesota deputy hitting deer at 114 mph

    114mph? In the dark?? Huh, lucky he's still alive and it was only a deer that was crossing. Wonder if he made it to the restaurant in time to catch the bad guy.

    243 or 308 "reduced recoil" for youth

    I like your thinking, I have also been considering a 6.5 creed for him to try. If it happens to be a little much, well then oops, better buy another gun. Cost of a gun doesn't bother me as much as the cost of decent optics on it. For some reason I can justify spending the coin on the weapon...

    243 or 308 "reduced recoil" for youth

    I am in your same position, son will be 11 next year and ready for his first doe tag. Was considering getting him a .308 this winter, however I think I changed my mind and may opt for a 7mm-08. Can't really go wrong with those or the .243. My first deer was with a browning bar .30-06, which...

    ND Turtle Mountain Elk

    Jason Smith- Smith's Taxidermy in Jamestown did a deer for me last year. Everything I saw in his shop and his photos online were top notch. He's got a bookface page with a lot of photos and such, he'll definitely get my next critter.

    Winchester Ranger 120 youth 20 gauge 3''

    Any of you know where a guy could get a new ejector for one? It was my first gun, my son has been shooting it this year, been having trouble ejecting the shell, took it apart this weekend and noticed the ejector was very worn. Upon further inspection, found a weak spot on the barrel end of it...

    Snows

    Seen a few decent flocks on Sunday whilst coming home from Dickinson, they were around the Bowden/Fessenden area. Was surprised actually at how many were down already and quite a few young ones in the flocks it appeared. Also quite a few ducks close by that didn't appear to be locals.

    Berkley Snap Jigs?

    I think I'll stick with plain old homemade lead head jigs to pitch plastics. Get 5-6 pike snarf casts in a row that cost a couple bucks a piece would start to piss a guy off. Would be interesting to see the action of these fished vertically though I spose.

    What works best??

    I haven't had much luck with rattling or any sort of scent stuff. Tried buck piss, doe piss, the hanging scent wicks, buck bomb spray, etc. all with limited to no results. Only thing I've ever been somewhat successful with is with some light grunting and some snort/wheeze. Have a had a few...

    Pheasant Survey Down 61%

    I think a lot of it has to do with the bug hatch. The growing chicks depend on eating bugs. No water = no food or drink. Also with no water obviously means less growth of cover grasses to hide in. Bad deal all around.

    Bet Twinkie Dinkies lose

    Molitor messed up, he should have started Gibson. Boys would have said "oh shit, we need at least a dozen runs now" -somehow they can always score when he's pitching. They could have tacked a couple on in the top of one, brought in Gibby in the bottom and had him throw one in the dirt and be...

    Farming Question - Weeds in Fields

    Lotta weeds becoming more and more resistant to chemicals. Good old roundup no longer does the trick for everything. New chemicals being developed which also will mean new seed varieties to be made. Lotta trial and error involved to come up with the right seed/chemical combo to keep weeds at...

    Did all the ducks in MN leave???

    I classify pretty much any duck that you usually dont shoot in the field (mallards and pintails) as a shit duck. To each their own. I'm a white racist male so maybe that plays into it. The kids can shoot all the widgeons/gadwalls etc that come in, but i usually try to get 5 greenheads and a...

    Those poor little shit ducks that have been resting peacefully in the sloughs and road ditches all summer are in for a shock in about a half hour
