[QUOTE="NodakBuckeye, post: 125150, member: 714"] Right, but the 10 years you shared data on, aside from the 1 year at just over 18k, it has been pretty steady around 23k on average. Extra competition sucks when it is piled on your hunting areas, I get that but ND resident hunters have had 20 something years of poorer hunting because NR hunters spiked at 30k in the 90s and lowered into the low mid 20k in the 2000s? Like you said there are other factors working here and I don't know anyone that can control them. I think the style of hunting with the trailers, the vehicals and the numbers of guys in a spread, just doing what the guys on tv and videos do is a problem for many landowners and you throw in the cuthroat, whiny, bitchiness that waterfowlers are known for and guys have just gotten tired of it and have said no more. It is one thing for 3 or 4 guys and a couple bags of dekes asking to hike out to a slough versus 6 Sean Mann wannabees with more gear than the French Army wanting to march on the group that got there first.
