    CWD and EHD article. Which kills more deer?

    While I don’t know where I stand with respect to CWD, Kroll is not an unbiased source. Millions of deer survive EHD every year and has been a sickness among deer for eons. Im led to believe CWD is 100% fatal and is a new disease. If those things are true I definitely feel more concern for CWD...

    Encouraging Article on CWD in Missouri

    Interesting, I would definitely think that we should expect a lack of mature bucks in hit zones, if the claims about CWD are true (the claims I have believed and repeated).

    Encouraging Article on CWD in Missouri

    I had it in my head that there were CWD “hot zones” in which impacts to buck age structure was measurably and obviously apparent. Now I’m starting to think that these were hot zones WITH sharp shooters or drastically accelerated harvest. Does anyone know more about such data? I have no agenda...

    They continue to impress me

    Because the ones with decent racks get smashed as 2-3 year olds. For reasons you’ve mentioned, you get only a glimpse at them and have to shoot based on antlers. I don’t want to argue and I’m quite sure I’ll never produce conclusive data to prove my point to you, but I strongly believe that if...

    They continue to impress me

    And yet, places with crappy habitat regularly kill slobs when they let them age… all over the whitetails range.

    They continue to impress me

    If it’s that hard to see, how can they estimate the deer herd? I kid. I’m in MS, so I understand. The only way to reconcile the IA and AR data is: - population and/or harvest estimates are incorrect OR - IA hunters are that much more disciplined - some combination of all of the above

    Hunting / recreation and timberland values in your location?

    Old Mexico certainly has a Wild West feel. https://www.borderlandbeat.com/?m=1 That said, gambling on future oil/gas royalties at that cheap an entry point makes sense to this unstudied individual. ETA: this is in no way a dig at my favorite poster Baker.

    Conspiracy theorys, where do you stand?

    How can I base decisions and opinions about me and my family on anything other than what my eyes see? I didn’t say I dismiss your statistics reference. I am not wanting to be political, so I’ll just say that if your statistics are true, the rest of the country is doing a good job of resisting...

    Conspiracy theorys, where do you stand?

    Is that what the news says? In all seriousness, it hasn’t been safe for me to fill my truck up within 5 miles of my place of work for the last 20 years. And new murder records are being set. Idc about the statistics.

    Conspiracy theorys, where do you stand?

    Man, I don’t know. I haven’t intentionally watched “the news” on tv in years. When I happen to catch it or have to look at the newspaper for something specific, I’m generally surprised at the lack of coverage of some major issues and problems. The crime in my nearest metro area is at epic...

    Conspiracy theorys, where do you stand?

    I’m with you. I have little respect for any politicians. If there’s enough support maintained for strong families and value of self sufficiency, personal accountability, I think we can weather these dark ages and come out the other side.

    Realtor interaction etiquette

    What I meant was that I think the ‘engineer vibe’ makes salesmen not want to work with us for the exact reasons you state. Overly analytical and practical to a fault. The first step is admitting you have a problem, right?!

    Haha. Nah. We maybe. I can understand you’d suspect that — it was my first inclination, too. He wasn’t trying to talk me into buying it. This would be a flip, whereas what he’s helped me with before was more permanent opportunities. He was understanding of what I’m doing and was talking me thru...

    Realtor interaction etiquette

    I’ve been baffled and intrigued by this business for 20 years. Thats not hyperbole. The number of incompetent land agents obviously pulling in multiple six figures in commissions blows my mind. I cuss them on one hand but would love to have that career, on the other hand. I honestly think I...
