    College players staying out of FBS Bowl Games

    I don't have much of a problem with it...if they were in the final 4 I would but not one of these meaningless bowl games. Especially running backs, their window is generally pretty short to make money. Not to mention how much money they've already made for their schools...Let their backup get...

    F150 one year review.

    I'm kind of in the market for a new truck (first time)...did you guys buy in ND or did you find better deals elsewhere?

    Bison 6-pack

    Big Sky probably doesn't have the depth of the Valley but we'll see how Eastern Washington does. Gotta remember NDSU lost to Montana last year and were mighty fortunate to beat EWU this year so it's not like you can say the Big Sky is so bad. Yes, the Mountain West still exists - you Bison...

    Leasing Land to Hunt- Is it becoming the new normal?

    And yet we see 20 year olds that have hardly had a job running around with those types of spreads...lol - - - Updated - - - I am surprised we haven't seen more out of staters lease/buy land in ND. I know there are some and probably a lot more that I don't know about. I really have to wonder...

    Leasing Land to Hunt- Is it becoming the new normal?

    Definitely getting to be more prevalent and dare I say necessary as the rate of getting on posted land to bird hunt seems to drop every year. I'm about 0 for 10 in asking on waterfowl spots this year, even got shot down on an unposted field that I asked on because I knew it was always posted in...

    next storm commin...

    I'd say about 4" in Bismarck as of 7 AM Monday. Heavy wet stuff. Looks like we had about a half inch of rain before that too.

    The ice can't come soon enough

    I put on quite a few miles over a good portion of the state the last few days and anything that holds fish doesn't have a bit of ice on it that I saw. This snow shouldn't cause many problems in that regard.

    North Dakota College football

    I also grew up in GF and went to UND and have been to countless games - grandparents had season tickets to hockey, football, and basketball and I was a sports nut as a kid so I tagged along since about the time I was potty trained. Was just talking to a buddy the other day - remember when we...

    ND Outfitter Deer Tags

    Why would anyone do it if they weren't making money off of it? Go through all that work just to see the smile on a stranger's face when they shoot a deer when you could be letting friends and family do it, both at no profit? Doubt it

    Migration

    Problem is when it's this slow to cool down the migration gets spread out a bunch and the "big push" doesn't exactly happen. Yeah, there'll be a push once it does get cold but not quite like it would if Canada were to freeze up on Nov. 1. What can ya do...

    After the hunt!

    Probably. I messed around with a few different brands when my lab was young and just couldn't find one that worked very well. Certainly my inexperience played a factor. Either didn't fit right or didn't stand up to use, then when the belly got rubbed raw I gave up. Seems like most of those...

    After the hunt!

    Yep I'd be careful with vests on labs. I used the skid plate on mine and it rubbed his belly bare several years ago - haven't used one since other than on cold waterfowl hunts (neoprene vest) and have had no issues. Have seen other labs rubbed raw in the arms & legs by vests; just don't think...

    Migration

    Only nice thing about it is not having the major migration happening around deer opener when many landowners won't let you on. Just hope it doesn't go from this to 10 degrees within a couple days like it has the last couple years.

    Migration

    Looks like it will be a late and probably quick migration again. Highs in the low 60s all week and southern Sask is just as warm.

    Pheasant Opener

    Couldn't have asked for much better weather for opener. Barely snowed where we were SE of Bismarck and was overcast and in the 30's all morning with a 5-10 mph wind and the birds cooperated. Today, tough going with that wind. The young birds we shot were pretty well colored out. Only had 1...

    1981 acres by Watford city auctioned off

    Sounds like it's going to be chopped up with a bunch of houses put on it. I know nothing of the land, but that's kinda disappointing. http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/north-dakota/4125274-historic-ranch-nd-badlands-fetches-more-33-million
