    People, this is very bad advice.

    3 Class Bball system in ND?

    What is your suggestion to more accurately place private schools? Enrollment is not the only thing that matters in this conversation. I find it hard to argue that the lowest class of ND athletics is the appropriate place for kids that are either a) affluent and have access to resources that...

    Devils Lake Level Dilemma

    Have you ever seen actual data supporting this? With over 150,000 acres lost to water since 1993, there is a giant loss of economic activity in the DL basin related to ag. I genuinely wonder if the impact of the increase in tourism has offset the ag losses.

    japanese balloon bombs

    It's probably in the podcast, but a Japanese balloon bomb accounted for the only WWII casualties in lower 48 states. It is an absolutely amazing chunk of history. https://www.wired.com/2010/05/0505japanese-balloon-kills-oregon/

    Sb 2315 - final house vote delayed!!

    Sure it can. The leasee of the grazing rights claims they have livestock present and can close it off from all public access for the requested amount of time. I ran across several where the closure started on 11-9 (opening day of rifle season) through 12-31. The funny thing is that 4 days after...

    The "NEW" SB 2315 - Pucker Up Buttercup!

    "Stupidity", "biggest exaggerations", "straight up lie"... This is the language that get's thrown at me for throwing out a different idea. If you haven't noticed, I don't want 2315 as I think it is a junk bill. I want legislation that is clear and doesn't cost the state a bunch of money. I...

    The "NEW" SB 2315 - Pucker Up Buttercup!

    No manifestos and had to even google the word "fatalistic". Just a reflection of what my experiences of hunting this state and other states has been over the last 25 years. If the desire to hop out of a vehicle in order to shoot a coyote, deer, duck, pheasant, or squirrel is more important than...

    The "NEW" SB 2315 - Pucker Up Buttercup!

    I think we as sportsman have to concede that the time has come to accept the overhaul to our trespassing/private access laws. Let's accept it is PRIVATE land that someone else is paying taxes on. The fact that the burden is on landowners to restrict access as opposed to placing the burden on...

    The "NEW" SB 2315 - Pucker Up Buttercup!

    Is the actual language that will be voted on been posted in any official capacity?

    Spuds

    I'm down with reds or yellows. Cube them into 3/4" cubes, toss with some olive oil, black pepper, cayenne pepper, salt and your favorite mrs. Dash spice blend (I like the salt free chicken blend) to coat. Preheat a cookie sheet in an oven set to 430*. Pull out cookie sheet and place potatoes...

    Montana Ski Resorts

    Discovery Ski area is not far from I 90 near Anaconda, MT and is fantastic. You will not run into long wait times at Discovery and it has a variety of terrain from steep and deep on the backside as well as long "cruising" runs on the front side. Lift tickets are reasonable compared to many of...

    Trigger Replacement

    You can replace it yourself. It is very, very easy. Time to finish including watching a couple of youtube videos will be under 30 minutes. I've switched all my remmy's over to Timney 510 triggers. Only one I had an issue with was an Model 722 where I had to create some clearence in the stock...

    Gloves

    I hate fingered coldweather gloves. For late season bowhunting I will wear a snug fit glove like a mechanix glove with some of those fur lined leather mittens over the top. I can quickly shed the mittens when the time comes and the frozen handle/riser of the bow isn't immediately bothersome...

    Mayo clinic

    I've spent a considerable amount of time in Rochester the last two years. If you think your stay will exceed 7 days, I would look at renting an apartment versus hotel or airbnb. Craigslist is full of places you can rent on a month to month basis. I like to have my own private space and the...

    Not nearly enough multi-quoting and random bold, colored fonts in this thread. I also think that guywhostirs should change his sig line to "That sounds like something a liberal would say..."

    Prairie legacy wilderness

    This is an easy chicken or egg question. Increased fire suppression created higher fuel loads which in turn causes more aggressive fires. Done. This hasn't been a linear trajectory either. The giant tracts of single aged timber stands created by human intervention became veritable petri dishes...

    Prairie legacy wilderness

    Wildfires are not worse because we don't have enough roads to access and fight them. Wildfires are worse because we've so aggressively suppressed fire since the 1960's that we have built the fuel load in our forests to a relatively high level. Fire suppression, which is what you're advocating...

    elk pack out

    Even for a fairly fit guy 1/2 elk plus camp is likely beyond reasonable. I've packed 4 elk out in the last 6 years and the animal alone typically takes 4-5 substantial packs assuming boned out meet and a skinned out skull, if you end up packing a cape out that is likely another 30-ish# to...
