    Pheasant opener 2017

    In winter on snow, roosters are colorful/loud and attract. Have watched winged predators (owls/hawks) swoop in on 5 roosters 1 hen and the hen gets whacked every time. It's just easier than getting spurred.

    Pheasant opener 2017

    Got up early and hit water and cattails. Done by 8:00 am. Drove around a bit to see how other were doing. Noticed a friend bringing cattle in so helped work cattle until 11:00. Had sausage for dinner and they mentioned they needed more cats. Went home cleaned birds and loaded cats in cage. Went...

    OTC deer 3pm today now, FYI!

    Not everyone thinks the deer herd should be maintained at the highest level possible. The population peaked between 2003 and 2007. My daughter totaled a car going to town. My son totaled a pickup going home. My wife had damage going to work. And my Ford Ranger was deer magnate with two...

    There is a reason I added that Bobkat posted it. This same discussion happened on FBO and I poked Bobkat about posting it. Holy shit, everyone came out of the woodwork defending his right to do that because he worked his ass off. I concur. KurtR said, Have a neighbor who (pick an excuse)...

    Exactly.....however, I bought some land with CRP on it and tried to convert it to pasture. I sprayed and clipped since 2008 and all I had left was green needle grass and weeds. So I tore the fucker up.

    DirtyMike said, So what is holding you back? Can you operate a shovel or hoe, carry three gallons of spray/water on your back? Dr. Bobkat bought some land southwest of Mandan years ago and spent every summer turning it into his dream habitat. Sweat equity. (I'd be willing to bet it's nice)...

    BBQ, I never said habitat has no value. After farming a piece of ground for 31 years the landlord died and I bought one quarter. The landlord never wanted tree rows before but I prepped the ground this year and 5 tree rows are going in next year. I've used a weed badger before and they work...

    The habitat the habitat......it's a theme. 2007 was the last banner year for me. They were everywhere. Today I farm the same land the same way and they are few. What changed? These dry as hell springs/summers from March until August suck for the hatch. Chicks need dew to hydrate and aphids for...

    PG, most of the work you did at USGS was for USDA.? Well that certainly is a new one. That reminds me. Page 5 post 98 I said remember that name. Edward Henry Harriman...a railroad baron. In 1899 he purchased a steamship and organized a philanthropic-scientific survey of coastal Alaska and...

    160,000 Salmon escape

    Atlantic Salmon are not native to Patagonia Chile. But they are pen raised by the hundreds of thousands. Cold water flows down from the Andes into fjords, an excellent site for floating pens. Norwegian investors started the industry in Chile and found a ready consumer in the United States...

    Standard Oil/ARAMCO or Rockefeller oil got its oil from Saudi Arabia and would just as soon the oil in the United States stayed off the market or locked up in a wilderness. Another one is Pew Charities or Pew Family owners of Sunoco Oil. They got their oil from Venezuela until it nationalized...
