[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 259211, member: 3373"] That initiative hurt DU big time in ND. Sportsmen and landowners alike were pretty much in agreement that the initiative was not good for ND. For duck hunters it's hard to argue that what DU's basic goal of raising more ducks is not good for waterfowl hunters. If a duck lands on a farmers swathed grain it's DU's fault. Perhaps if the land was unposted hunters would have been in the field trying to chase the ducks away. LOL. That wouldn't have worked as someone's property rights of wanting to feed ducks would have been violated. You just never know which farmer likes ducks and which one doesn't. Unfortunately, in this case, I think the representatives of DU from outside the state saw what they thought was easy money and convinced the personnel of ND to join in. There was a time when in some areas of the state that DU banquets in the fall were widely attended and huge money-makers. Now, I rarely hear of them, think I saw a notice of 1 last fall. Some bad advice ended up being no good for anyone, not even the ducks. [/QUOTE]
