I too went back and watched the video. It was good to get a refresher on what the ND landscape looked like in the late 90's and early 2000's from a habitat and overall quality of hunting standpoint as I was fortunate to witness it firsthand.. BY the end of the recording I didn't feel like any likely solutions were provided nor did the summit provide me with hopes of change in the near future. Would be nice to hear more on Armstrong's future vision on habitat improvement, upcoming changes, etc. knowing his support for the outdoorsman and protecting the hunting heritage of ND, but perhaps not high on his agenda at this moment..
I thought it was interesting that there is 45M acres of ground in this state and having less than 1% in CRP is all it took to produce some the best wildlife numbers we ever saw. I think the GF do very well on the fisheries, but big game, fowl and pheasants need some help - the bar charts are proof. I think the science is pretty simple in this sense - build it and they will come!
