    3 Class Bball system in ND?

    I don't know if 2 is the right multiplier, but the advantages private school kids enjoy is something I absolutely recognize. I'm probably more in the 1.3 to 1.5 range though to start, and adjust down the road if needed. There are some advantages in being a farm kid who is maybe a...

    Weirdest thing to ever happen to you out hunting?

    That is weird as heck! I've pretty much only seen grains and a few grasshoppers in a pheasant before now.

    Measure 2: Marijuana Legalization

    That is a FEDERAL issue, not a state issue or law. I suspect it is not very fun being in conflict with federal law on something like this.

    Measure 2: Marijuana Legalization

    That is absolutely correct. Our legislature handled this very, very poorly.

    3 Class Bball system in ND?

    I think it's post 26 that covers this, but I will say it again. Private school kids don't have to go get a job as a 14-18 yr old like many of us had to in order to have spending money. This helps them maximize their athletic potential. Yeah, I understand little communities get out and support...

    3 Class Bball system in ND?

    This is a very good point, lots of talk about private christian schools pilfering kids, especially off the rez's, and we forget to mention that many natives subscribe to the christian faiths.

    Riddle Me This.....

    Colt, it's "what". Note the punctuation, you are thinking it is a question but it's simply a statement.

    3 Class Bball system in ND?

    LOL, so Shiloh is so desperate to field a basketball team the coach (because let's face it, you want someone who knows the sport to pick incoming athletes) is helping recruit 7th and 8th graders to train for athletic success 4-5 years down the road? That's awesome, I should go watch some junior...

    Shiloh would also like your kid to apply to attend school within their walls so long as you live within what your parents are willing drive to get you there. If that's what you all mean by "recruiting", then yeah...they recruit. But there's still no athletic scholarship available that I know...

    3 Class Bball system in ND?

    Being relatively familiar with Shiloh, I can't agree with your position on Shiloh recruiting rez kids. First off, Shiloh is not a boarding school like the old New England Saint Mary was back in the day, so where is Shiloh homing all these kids that they are recruiting off the reservation? As...

    3 Class Bball system in ND?

    I guess I don't get the logic of private schools all needing to be Class A. For example, the Dakota Adventist Academy up north of Bismarck lists 38 students enrolled in grades 9-12. Aren't the different classes intended to generally match up schools of relatively similar sizes?

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    I suspect the jackwad would have still driven over to just screw up their hunt for a while simply because he was mad about being inconvenienced by someone hunting the neighbor's property. I've seen it a few times. Years ago I had a rancher come out and harass me as I was bowhunting public land...

    Flatting the curve

    I often get it and understand Lycan's philosophy of "because it's there", but in this example I am stumped as to why brek, brek's. Seriously? Are we that close to asphalt season coming to an end?

    Weirdest thing to ever happen to you out hunting?

    That would be my guess. That poor fella doesn't have a chance as he gets to the ripe old age of 2.5 yrs old.

    new to ND deer hunting

    You pull just one "sound shot" and I will personally lead the charge to send you back to MN. Other than that, I hope you have a fun and successful hunt!

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    Wait, what!?!?!? The standard has been reversed to where one now has to prove themselves innocent as opposed to being proven guilty? Whoa! That's not cool.

    Weirdest thing to ever happen to you out hunting?

    We do not rent it out. Mostly because I want nothing to do with the liability of such an endeavor, or the headaches of bringing an older home up to code for a rental.

    Crazy Hunter Harassment Duck Hunting In North Dakota (Game Warden Involved!)

    Hasn't been that many years ago (ok, probably 16 or 17 years ago) a well-known developer in the Bismarck area platted a development in the rural Bismarck area and messed up the property lines something fierce. At least one person ended up needing to sell some of their land to their neighbor...
