    Are you Nodakers killing any deer? ** Crickets**

    Had three kids with doe licenses and saw only three deer (only one doe) in four days of hunting. Most are definitely sitting in the corn. On the opening weekend, it snowed on Sunday. I was out Sunday evening til dark in places where there weren't any deer tracks. On Monday morning I went to...

    Man Card

    I say take away the man card for anyone that cannot drive a vehicle with a double clutch or for that matter take it away from any guy that can't saddle a horse. Every man that calls himself a man should at a minimum be able to saddle a horse.

    Moose on the loose in Bis

    This site is filled with such negativity. No matter what someone does, there is someone to bitch about it. I'm sure the cops were trying to get it out of town because it was near such a busy intersection. People stop to look at a moose and accidents will happen. It's life. Quit blaming...

    Trimming out venison for sausage

    Agreed. Brown the outside and put in a 400 degree oven until internal temp is 130. Very good steak.

    Trimming out venison for sausage

    I remember the days of taking forever to process a deer. I did some YouTube watching and watched Meat eater. When you know how to do it, it really shouldn't take longer than an hour for a whole deer, including packaging

    New ND State Record

    Just finishing up a moose my son shot last year. I've never heard anyone say it tastes nothing but good. Most commented that it tastes like grass fed beef. Very good.

    Sportsmen and women- be mindful out there. ESPECIALLY this year

    Yep, it's always easier to blame younger generations. I'm sure when we were 18 years old our parents were so proud of how well all the kids are behaved. If I heard it once I heard it a million times when I was in high school "The kids today are the best. So kind and caring. And I'm so amazed...

    Gun and/or reloading issues. Need help.

    Unless I got them mixed up, they were in a bag that I had marked as "Shot 1x". So this would have been the second firing with this brass. - - - Updated - - - As far as accuracy, it's possible that there is something wrong with the gun/scope and is separate from the brass issue. The scope is...

    Gun and/or reloading issues. Need help.

    I checked the casings before they were fired and they were fine. It happened on two of the 15 shots I fired on Friday.

    Gun and/or reloading issues. Need help.

    I have a 6mm bolt action and reload my own ammo. I don't do a lot of reloading but I believe I know mostly what I'm doing. For the last several years I have been using a recipe that works for my gun and haven't changed it. I went out to sight in my rifle a couple of weeks ago and my groups...

    Thoughts on recurves?

    Definitely get something with a low draw weight for his girlfriend. I would suggest 15 pounds. Its a lot more fun starting out with something lighter.

    Rock Pigeons

    Funny you mention this subject. Just shot some this weekend along with morning doves and eurasian doves. Pigeon tastes just fine. Don't know why people freak out about eating one kind of bird and are just fine with another. Ducks quite often live in filthy, shitty water and people claim they...

    What kind of fish are these?

    Interesting answers. I've asked a number of people and can't get a definitive answer but most say they are both rainbow. I just didn't know that rainbows could look so different. I've never liked the taste of trout or salmon caught in North Dakota and so I'll smoke them. However salmon from...

    What kind of fish are these?

    Also, look at the difference in teeth: - - - Updated - - - We thought one was a rainbow and one maybe a cutthroat but the cutthroat doesn't have the distinctive red marking. So maybe a cutbow trout which is a cross of the two - - - Updated - - - They were caught on jigs and minnow. Had...

    Big Fish vs Big Critter

    I have hunted and fished for over forty years. I have never gotten a trophy walleye. I have taken what I call a trophy buck, about 162, but it was complete luck that I found it. To catch or shoot those trophies consistently is definitely a skill that takes patients, time and usually money...

    Can anyone help a gal deer hunting?

    First off, if your gonna lecture about putting in the time and effort to find a spot to hunt then quit reading here. Don't need that lecture. I have a very nice young gal that I work with who really wants to go deer hunting. She has zero hunting experience and either does her dad who may go...

    What mushroom is this?

    Found these several places in Bismarck today. I don't know if I've seen them before.

    Morel Mushroom

    I regularly eat puffballs and shaggy mane which are commonly found in North Dakota. Both are good. Lots of shaggy mane in Bismarck right now.
