    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    Yes I am familiar with the practice I'm simply surprised someone would spend until it endangers their business simply to withhold it from taxes. My mother would say some people would cut off their nose to spite their face.

    Best archery target?

    Same for me. Roll it on its back, put a foot on it and pull with both hands. The Block works well for me. I got the Reinhart out of the lawnshed the other day and after cooking in there for four years the arrows pull easier.

    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    When we went to Sakakawea a few days ago I talked with a ranch lady who's husband and kids were haying north west of Devils Lake. We are in bad drought here in Jamestown too, but not as bad as north of Sakakawea.

    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    A couple years ago our local grocery store got in trouble for purchasing milk in Minnesota. NAFTA perhaps solved the wheat thing. I remember farmers wanting it, then when they found out which direction the wheat was going they threw a fit. They were on the North Dakota/Canadian border...

    How many of you would still bowhunt if you could not bait?

    I don't bait either. I do feed deer in my yard. Since it's impossible to keep them out my reasoning is if I feed them they will not eat so many of my wife's flowers.

    this cop has a really bad day

    I think I would have blindly ripped one half off as I staggered around with no sight. At least that would have been my story. Either that or a smack up side the head, trying to control the perp of course. I'm sure my stalker will not understand this is humor.

    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    On the other hand I know a couple of smart old bachelors who passed away a few years ago that had nearly two million each off a section of land each. They overwintered down in Arizona every winter for the past 35 years. Stopped cattle in the 1940's and went grain. I remember the one saying...

    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    Trying to avoid taxes during the good years sounds like my cousin purchasing the biggest combine John Deer makes at Christmas. Not much need that time of year, but he said if he didn't buy it then the bast(**&^ds in Washington would get it. He wasn't afraid of paying some taxes he was afraid...

    this cop has a really bad day

    Twice in one week my nephew was assisting a female cop with a perp that was resisting arrest. She pepper sprayed him in the face both timed.

    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    No just the ones I am talking about. I realize things are dryer the further west you go. I kind of agree with Johnr on this. I just have an aversion to some people pay in while other draw out. They should have socked some into the bank during the good years. If the years are all bad maybe...

    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    Relatives the age of my kids have new toy haulers, deck boats, and new trucks to pull them. How bad is it really? I am happy for them, but are they in trouble? Can't be or they wouldn't be spending the way they do.

    4C Mule Deer

    Absolutely. There is one alternative to the story. He could have started an outfitting business on the side. I have been hunting that area since 1978. One guy on Government Creek was good until he started an outfitting business. My ears are not that bad and I was having coffee with this...

    National Grasslands

    WoooHooo I just checked the fire map for North Dakota and the entire state is LOW FIRE DANGER. That makes me happy happy happy. Think I will go out and burn my pile of branches. - - - Updated - - - When they talked me into being on the church council I didn't want to do it. At last when I...

    Dicamba Drift?

    Thanks for that info sponsy12. I always thought the lowest time was two hours and it was already sprinkling at the far NW end of Pipestem. It did stop while I was shooting so evidently they thought it was OK.

    Got rain?

    It had been skirting by us to the north all day until about five minutes ago. At last drops are falling faster than I can count on the skylight. Hope this keeps up for a while. It looks like out west they got rain, so maybe the hunt is on.

    I want this Bullet Puller

    Yes, you can wreck an inertia pulled fast trying to pull 40 gr bullets from a 22-250. The 405 in the 45/70 pull with a couple of taps. I have hopes of better accuracy and easier bullet pulling once my Sinclair neck turned gets here and I determine the correct neck size collect for my RCBS Gold...

    Dicamba Drift?

    It's dead calm this morning so I went to the Pipestem area to shoot a little. A plane was spraying on the north side of the reservoir and it was starting to sprinkle a little. We are supposed to get rain today. Wasn't that applicator shafting the farmer? I mean if rain comes within a couple...

    Dicamba Drift?

    Oh I remember what messed with my oaks - curtail. Didn't bother any other trees, but it sure whacked the oaks. I have seen chemical receptors put down in wetlands and they had higher concentrations two days later than the upland they were spraying. I sprayed a small spot (50 ft across) of...

    I want this Bullet Puller

    That looks good Zogman. I wonder if it damages the bullet at all. At the price of bullets today I don't want to destroy ELD-X or Berger VLDs. I bet I pull 500 bullets in a year. I have worn out a half dozen hammer type like the guy in the video is using. I have three of those electrical...
