    Moose Infestation

    I've never seen quite that many together but 5-6 in a group isn't uncommon. Usually mostly cows with a bull or two. Not common to see that many bulls in a group. Not to mention some of those bulls are pretty decent and will only be bigger next year.

    Pop-up vs Flip Style

    n Do you worry about ventilation if you sleep in the hub all night with no vent for the heater?

    Car hits ditch and goes 110 feet without touching the ground and then hits house

    As indicated above, her speed will be easily calculated based on physics (launch angle, weight, etc.) by an accident reconstruction team. Kind of reminds me of the case last summer near Grand Forks where a man drove 1/2 mile across a wheat field and crashed into a home. In that case I believe I...

    Pop-up vs Flip Style

    Also have both and would not want to set the hub up in much of a wind by myself. Hub definitely has more room and is comfortable. Flip up is handy when you cannot drive your pickup where you want to go. With the flip-up you also have the sled to pull with a 4-wheeler, range, or snowmobile...

    CWD unit 3a1

    Please don't suggest the legislature will handle this to the benefit of the sportsman of ND. I prefer they stay completely out of the G&F business even when I don't agree with some G&F rules.

    Christmas shopping.

    I find it a necessary part of being married. I don't often shop with my wife. I don't enjoy it and because of that, neither does she. Most of the year it's a separate activity for us as a couple. She's not required to hunt or fish with me, and I i don't have to ship-with her. Christmas is a...

    Which wild game meat tastes the best?

    My view exactly. beef doesn't taste like pork. Salmon doesn't taste like walleye either.Wild game tastes like wild game. I agree that some game can get pretty strong tasting, especially if not taken care of properly. I don't like the taste of fat on a deer either. But duck fat, that is very...

    Which wild game meat tastes the best?

    For me: 1. Moose 2. Elk 3Antelope 4. Pheasant 5. Deer 6. Ducks 7. Young Snow Geese 8. Ruffed Grouse (Problem is getting enough to actually make a meal.) 9. Cottontail Rabbit (same problem as ruffed grouse in lots of areas.) I like recipes that enhance the flavor yet still have ingredients that...

    Rod holders

    Pretty sure this rod holder will have very expensive maintenance costs.

    First bow for my kids

    Does the Archery In Schools program still use the Genesis? If so, that might be a consideration. That is a really good program for beginning and all young archers.

    Deer Baiting Ban

    I also question the benefit of banning bait. I have hunted over bait as well as going without a bait pile. My experience is that there were lots of does and fauns using the bait, not often that a buck came in to feed. Unless they were feeding at night. Is there a reason a bigger buck is affected...

    Venison Roast Recipes

    Received good advice many years ago. Was told "To have the best venison roast you need to make sure that just before you shoot the deer, it still has milk on its lips." Don't receive much meat off a young deer but "Oh my, are they tender and tasty."

    Garmin, deal or no deal.

    I'm so far behind on sonar units that all these opinions could just as well been written in Spanish.

    Underwater camera

    Grandson bought a Marcum a couple years ago. Agree with everyone that water clarity is essential to use the camera. It can also help catch fish as you can see what the fish are doing. Light bites that you don't feel or see are the main thing in seeing. Sometimes all you see is your lure...

    advisory meetings

    The advisory meetings are kind of like discussion here on NDA. Everybody has their opinion. Sometimes simple questions can turn into 20 page opinions. case in point: Did slot limits come up at any of the meetings. Or, perhaps, mule deer hunting in the badlands. Not much has changed. I do...

    keeping garage floor dry

    Ceiling heater, or hanging heaters with fans are more out of the way but a down draft heater on the floor is better for drying in my experience. Blows the hot air down at floor level which really helps drying. In most cases getting rid of the moisture is the biggest issue.

    First time out

    Might have been tough for everybody as I don't remember having much of a fall.

    NFR in Las Vegas

    Having a hard time deciding which would be more fun. The NFR or the Calgary Stampede. On the bucket list to do at least one. Calgary Stampede has some different events (buckboard racing) as well as a top-notch rodeo. Should have went when I was younger. That's a lot of partying at my age.

    Williston Airport

    I'm sure no one likes the price but the old airport ended up being pretty much in the middle of town.

    Dick's Sporting Goods to destroy all unsold guns

    Dick's has some stuff that I use, just not in the hunting/fishing category. Decent golf supplies as well as clothing. No better than Scheel's, at least in Bismarck. Shoes and other clothing isn't bad either, just don't try to pass yourself off as an outdoor hunting store. All looking for free...
