    More Snow Next Week?

    Man, just spent my lunch shoveling. I got 15 inches overnight here in the home of Sarah Palin. Got 17 inches last Thursday and another 12-18 inches forecasted this week! Already at 42 inches since Thanksgiving. My oldest kid can't even walk in the backyard. We will pass the wettest year ever on...

    Limit lakes for guides?

    That’s why I made sure to include that regulation should be at scale. Because it’s not all apples to apples. Which is kind of what the original question is about. I don’t think everyone should bear the burden if a commercial group over exerts a resource. Would you still think this way if guide...

    Limit lakes for guides?

    Limiting the exploitation of a shared and extremely limited natural public resource is night and day different than limiting free markets and commerce. Where exactly is your line for this free for all? Unlimited commercial fishing boats OK? Unlimited timber harvest OK? Unlimited OTC big game...

    Fireplace for ice shanty?

    I think the nuway would be a reasonable alternative to keep things dry inside all day and not have the risk of CO. No mess, no lost space by having to haul wood, no work cutting wood, and better air quality. It gives you the option of being able to regulate and throttle your heat. When I've used...

    Doorbell Cameras

    I bought a ring doorbell about a year ago to test out. It's hardwired in and I've used it without and with a subscription. The subscription is nice to go back and see who/what was there if I'm stuck in a meeting when my motion sensor goes off. You can still watch the video and talk in real time...

    Time to bring this back........

    I don’t hate Christmas music, I just hate being forced to listen to it. When I turn on the radio, I want that music. Not Alan Jackson singing “Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer.” Here is a local favorite.

    Fireplace for ice shanty?

    I have two tents with a stove jack and rarely use wood for either of them. There are now options for propane that keep the tent dry and vents. https://nuwaystove.com/ Very compact and light I may add. There are also tents that a Mr. Buddy will burn dry in.

    Baiting Ban

    That's fine. Understand and agree. I'm just trying to connect why a bait ban is the results of trying not to offend nonresidents and how the state caters to nonresidents as far as opportunity. All of those problems are free market problems. I'm pro capitalism and believe a landowner should be...

    Baiting Ban

    Is there any state that has as many big game species closed to nonresidents as ND? Is there another state that has less than a 10% allocation for deer rifle? (ND is 1% and usually less in most units after gratis come out) Any other state limit their bird hunters to 14 days? I can’t think of...

    300 win mag ammo

    Shot a caribou at a little over 600 and sheep at 300 with 120gr ttsx. Both were pass throughs. A ton of others tuff under 200 (goats, black bears, deer, musk ox). I've never found a bullet. I plan on letting my wife use the same bullet on her moose this month. Shot from a 7-08 with muzzle...

    Hanging deer - head up or down?

    The way a butcher would do it (on beef/sheep/etc.) is to skin the head first starting at the nose/mouth. Then remove the head after it's skinned. Then lay the animal on its back and start skinning. Splitting the brisket early in the process. Then slowly start lifting from the back legs and...

    Black Friday Deals

    I’ve never stepped foot into a store on Black Friday but I ran over to Sportsman’s Warehouse at about 9:30 this morning to get a couple things. Their deals went from open to noon. I’d say the parking lot was as full as it usually is on any other weekend. But the store was fully staffed. All...

    remember when...

    Got a family friend where the lady became a widow. She was able to put a trike kit on her husband's bike so she could keep riding. Pretty cool to have that option.

    Thanksgiving Feast!

    If I had to make a list of good meals we make, the typical Thanksgiving meal would be on about page 3. But my wife is making me do it. I personally can't stand turkey, but I got one in the brine to throw on the smoker. Didn't realize turkey is only like $1.20/lb. And stuffing is like $3. And...

    Need Elk?

    Doesn't even have to be on the rez. In places like unit 23 here, it's estimated more than 20,000 caribou are shot and never reported each year. Mostly cows and calves. I've seen tons of cases of musk ox being shot near villages and it's handled in tribal court. Was a case of about 30 caribou...

    Legalize or not ?

    Dang, sounds scary. A plant that makes a person happy and relaxed. Good thing we’re still dumping a pile of legal resources into that. Just as important as fighting the stuff in schools that kids can literally die by just touching…..
