    One tag system

    I would think you'd be in the $2500 an acre category, because you would want a mix of crop land and cover. So let's look at this very simplistically: 160 x $2500 = $400,000 If I had $400k to put towards hunting, I think I would sink it into a nice bond or "safe" mutual fund seeking 5% annual...

    One tag system

    Naw, outside of the additional tech people use, the hunt is still the same for most of us. It's the "hunters" and to some extent, the landowners that have changed.

    Propane connection converter?

    I too am confused with why the old style tank can no longer be refilled. Did it fail inspection?

    air cooker?

    My girlfriend has one similar to the above and she loves it. Pizza and just about anything else can be cooked in it.

    Let's face it, there are already plenty of laws on the books with similar intent. Another I dislike in particular is the one where if you have a rifle in your possession (vehicle), and if after dark you pull into an approach on the side of a gravel road (your headlights shine out into a...

    In theory, no. I don't think this rule which went in place around 2003 (??) was to put older mounts in jeopardy. At this point though, I put nothing past a LEO with a mission and a dumbass rule. You hear about a set of antlers getting confiscated just about every year though at big buck...

    Prediction - First Ice

    Doesn't look like any real "ice-making" weather until sometime in December right now for the southern part of the state. I know my pond in the backyard had a good skim of ice on it, but has started to look pretty iffy over the past few days.

    I believe there is a legal way for you to shoot someone else's deer. Especially if that were a gratis tag. And no, the NDGF doesn't want every tag issued to be filled. They want roughly the same percentage of tags filled each year. I think from their perspective, if party hunting were legal...

    Now that they can shoot a deer at the age of 11, I don't think I need to worry about that scenario. However, I am quite sure that happens (happened) often and I am not as opposed to that scenario as I am to Joe Shmoe that I just happen to be in the field with thinking he has the green light to...

    Talk me into a deer rifle

    I wanted a 280 Rem in model 700 way back when I bought my 7 mm Rem Mag. I just couldn't afford the cost of the 280s I found, they were all in Remington Classic's lineup and people seemed to think they were made of gold. Note. I just never thought I needed a magnum, and already having a 25-06...

    Casey, Remember, this is how we got the requirement to keep tags on mounts, or risk losing them. Along with that, you are also no longer able to pick up a dead skull. Thought behind that was we were going to go around shooting deer, leaving them lay, and then come back later and just tell...

    Reverse is your friend. If it slides forward, it will also slide to the back given the right encouragement.

    Personally, I don't understand why anyone would let someone else shoot their deer. Especially in times like this where you only get a single rifle tag a year. Maybe back in the days of multiple tags, but I would have serious issues with someone shooting a deer and expecting my season to be over.

    Santa

    I played Santa a few times back in my 20s while in the Corps. I was too young for it then and was uncomfortable with it. I'd be much more of a natural fit nowadays in portraying a fat, bearded older guy. :(

    Military question

    The amount of infidelity I saw during my four in the Corps was actually a factor in my deciding to get out. Other than that, I really enjoyed it as a single young man. So I got out, got married, and still ended up divorced. Maybe I should have just stayed in?

    Albino Deer Shot in WI

    I too would be interested to know why Cheeseland protects this deer and not that one.

    Curse of Oak Island

    The funny thing about the whole thing is that I'm unconvinced they really ever want to find out what is, or is not, down there. We have the tech today to drill in the deep ocean and HIT an oil well's casing, drill through the casing to kill a well blowout. And yet, these clowns won't bring in...

    Do you process your own deer?

    OK, so I actually talked with the ND Dept of Health. I was misled, it is NOT illegal for butcher shops to commingle your deer with mine. That does it, I am officially never taking another deer to a butcher shop that won't swear on their mother's grave that they don't mix your gutshot, hung in...

    Shooting Range Safety

    If someone is down range and you even fondle your bolt, you're going to hear from me. A rifle is to be CLEARED and left alone until all are back from the targets. An accidental discharge is maybe even worse than someone "aiming" at a target.
