So I went and did it

[Obi-Wan]

Awd Astro were ultimate road hunting rig so I heard..... it was like south central drive by just on Chinese chickens

I met a couple guys from Kentucky that were in ND goose hunting the river N. of Bismarck. After a few beers and laughs they talked about how when they would go to SD pheasant hunting they rented vans for their sliding doors and said they worked great on roosters.

Huey and BlackHawk Helicopters have gunner and troop deployment doors and machine guns on BOTH sides, just saying.............

No, they weren't. Lack of a Port-side door save for the driver was a major bummer.

Body-on-Frame and using the 4.3L V-6 were excellent ideas though. My dad's transmission failure notwithstanding, I know 1 guy who towed a 20' deck boat w/his AWD Astro and another friend who used to tow his 19' Pro-V from Fargo to Bismarck regularly with an Astro.

Unibody construction and towing is less than ideal IMO and a CVT for towing is a no-go for me.

when you are six teen find one for 1500 and then turn the seat to face the sliding door and turn the back one around deployment out of the back door. tear all the carpet out so you just use a hose to spray it out and a luggage rack up top for decoys we sure felt like we were shitting in tall cotton . haha

The comment was only meant to agree with your southern friends about big doors on both sides being a bonus.

And it amazes and baffles everyone as to why all the land it posted up...

On a side note, why would you venture 1,000+ miles one way to ground pound out of the ditch??? You could go to your local game farm and shoot them with their head tucked under their wing for far less money....

Road hunting is legal here and you have to get permission to hunt any way. Hell its what people do used to go cruise around with my dad when i was little listening to football looking for pheasants. not my cup of tea now but we had lots of fun as teenagers back in the day

 

[Lycanthrope]

Ha! The name on the jet ski made me shoot soda out of my nose!

If you havent watched Eastbound and Down its worth a look, lotta LOL moments in there, for me at least.

I grew up in SD and as a kid everyone road hunted, or so it seemed. And it isn't as easy as some on here make it out to be. The second they hear the vehicle slow down, they bolt for cover LOL.

Maybe this is the result of everything being automatically posted. Isn't it legal to hunt the ditches in SD? I don't know I have never hunted there.

I am guessing its the adventure. They have come to ND every year for the last 20 plus years for goose hunting the Missouri River. They drag their boats and hunt for 2 weeks in the late season.

long sleeved shirt is also very impressive, shades should have been white framed though, and that would have completed the deal

 

[shorthairsrus]

[johnr]

so what does this mean Mr Science

 

[guywhofishes]

buy wet suits - going to be a cold ##### summer according to the sun (grand solar minimum)

i.e. our big yellow furnace is stuck on a low setting for a while

could be one of those non-summers

or, I'm full of crap. 50/50 IMO
