    Handicapping fishing tourneys?

    I play in some golf tournament as well as matches that handicaps are frequently used. Handicaps are not based on the color or cost of your clubs or what type of ball is used. Handicaps are used to basically start everyone out on the same level. Handicaps, as many of you who also play golf know...

    Laying Carpet

    i would think it depends on the type of carpet. have laid carpet without a pad and is glued down. Not a bad job depending on the size of he room and whether there are seams or not. Carpet that has a pad and needs to be stretched to the strips on the edges requires some special knee kickers (not...

    New spear fisherman with a couple of questions.

    Kind of new myself but I usually have the decoy down about 6 ft. Have fished in 17 ft. of water with the decoy up at 6 ft. and fish did come up frequently enough that speared my limit with no problem. I move the decoy pretty continuous but not real aggressive. Depends on the decoy. Have one that...

    Weather

    Last Monday or Tuesday, forget which day, the KX network early news show (5am - 7am) had a young man from the south report the weather from outside the studio. Had never seen him before, or since for that matter. It was 13 degrees in Bismarck but pretty windy and snowy and he was absolutely...

    Was C.T.E Stealing His Mind? A Gunshot Provided the Answer

    Don't have an easy answer as I don't want belittle the affects of CTE. Do question the comparison of Youth FB collisions vs NFL collisions. And yes, are there any physicals where a concussion is not possible?

    2018 Fish House Project

    For projects that involve the family, and if you don't take time away from your paying job, I never consider the labor as a cost. My grandson helped me with mine as well as a brother in law. My grandson still considers the house "OURS". He didn't spend one dime but quite a bit of grandpa time...

    2018 Fish House Project

    Other than some differences in finish material, looks about identical to the house I built. I used an Ice Castle frame but about the only difference in frames is the lifting mechanism. Mine has stood up well with 2X2's and heating is no problem. Looks good and with the pictures of the little...

    Dumb ass stupid hairy over grown cows...

    Have no clue what the banned substance was other than it was a stimulant. Kind of a broad term. Back in the day, when I was a college athlete, well before any testing was done and never heard of growth hormones, a new assistant coach came in and he was heavy into weight training. He suggested we...

    Devil's Lake

    Yes I do have the button. My problem is that I forget to hit the button until I need it and then it's usually too late.

    Devil's Lake

    In my experience, getting stuck is usually a result fo trying to drive through snow that is to deep. Not caused by my tires. Either that or the damn traction control on my Chevy cuts the power of the motor when the tires start to spin. Why the hell can't they lock that out when I put it in...

    SB 2315 -Everything's Posted Bill

    It aggravates me when posting is considered a property owners rights. There is absolutely nothing in the current law that says any landowner does not have the right to use their land as they wish. There might be some ASCS or other farm programs that have some rules. I know that landowners have...

    Vacuum sealers and bags

    Make sure you file a report on how it works for you. I use a Foodsaver, Their one that is priced a little over the $200 range. Works good for me, my only complaint is that after packing about 20# of sausage it overheats and goes on rest mode. Not the end of the world as it also gives me a rest...

    Intoxicated people can pedal or ride horse in ND

    Most likely not a better man at all. For most I don't think they realize all there is to see at these places. They are called Libraries when in reality they are more a history museum. All kinds of history in the Reagan Library from his time as a young man through the end of his life. Fascinating...

    Little Loud out there are we?

    Interesting. Law enforcement will have fun enforcing this bill. They will be required to carry some sort of equipment to measure decibels. Unusual noises? What if I fart to loud? I guess for me that would not be considered unusual. Ask my wife. The most unusual noise I've heard of on my lake...

    Intoxicated people can pedal or ride horse in ND

    I'm not sure how much we should spend on a President's Library but do have to admit that when I visited Reagan's Library I was very impressed. Had no problem spending the better part of a day touring. Definitely something that would draw visitors. Whether it would draw enough to pay for itself I...

    Intoxicated people can pedal or ride horse in ND

    I'm pretty sure it's not the .08 drinkers who are causing many of the problems. Have any of you ever been tested to actually see or feel what .08 feels like. Not necessarily proud of it but at .08 I don't feel any different than before I had the first beer. Certainly not where I'm off-balance or...

    Hb 1366

    Agree with this, but then why would you limit them in the firs place to improve their sight to hunt?

    Hb 1366

    HB 1366 has been introduced. It states, "Removes telescopic sight restrictions for crossbows issued to an individual who is blind, paraplegic, or who has lost the use of one or both arms." Not trying to be disrespectful or an ass, but I need an explanation of why a telescopic scope would have...

    Beef Tongue

    Haven't had tongue in many years but when I did it was delicious. If you're skittish about what something looks like it's best not to watch the skinning. Once skinned and cooked properly you will think you are eating the finest cut of meat from the animal. Great beef flavor, fine texture, and...
