Bacon wrapped and stuffed. How to BBQ right channel has a video that I use for venison backstrap, works the same for beef tenderloin. It's delicious

A few of those are some beautiful bucks, your future looks promising!

This isn't that bad of a hobby, is it? 🤣

I haven't heard of anyone reporting that but for the first time this season we had one doe that was skin and bones all summer, she was definitely sick and I would have shot her and let her lay, tbh. Never encountered her and haven't seen a pic of her in a few months.

That's some beautiful looking habitat, no doubt about that.

We hunted a permission spot yesterday that was holding a lot of birds. It had about 2/3 acre of cover, in the form of spruce trees, surrounded by picked beans and the amount of scratching in the picked bean field was pretty incredible.

I didn't see the Vikes game but just seeing the final score, McCarthy must have played better this week? Anyways, I'll leave this here.

💯 It's the absolute worst decision these game departments can make, IMO.

What rate and how did it do on the smartweed? I've got a few perennial clovers patches that the smartweed is starting to creep into maybe ~25% of the plot and was looking for a solution. I have some imox left yet, but didn't know if it would be better to apply before the smartweed comes on and...

Those deer with the stickers can really make some cool jumps year to year. Have you had good luck passing shooters and seeing them/hunting them next year? In MN I've given up passing on bucks that make it this long because it hasn't worked out for me to get a Crack next year. In WI its been a...

Some beautiful bucks there Native. Next year's crop is looking good!

We've killed buckthorn DEAD with the garlon/diesel 1:3 mix down to 0 degrees on cut - stump treat. Never tried the Harper cocktail though. I'm sure he has some literature on the efficacy of his cocktail, unfortunately all of his stuff I have saved is on my desktop at work or I'd gloss it over...

This is alarming, no way to sugar coat it.

Just checked the testing results for Iowa, Sauk, Dane, and Richland counties in WI, ground zero area for the initial positive tests... positive results as high as 37% in Richland as low as 18% in Dane county. These are the 2025 results with more tests pending. What I've *heard* is that the...

Those are indeed some scary results coming from that region. The positive is that it's been around for 25+ years in southwest WI and there are still mature bucks around in those areas.

I think the reason is likely both, IMO. The logistics of extracting a lymph node is the toughest part. In WI where they've been testing for decades now, there are locations every 10 miles so it isn't such a nuisance for the hunter to get the test. Then the biologists or whoever drive to the...

CWD testing is certainly expensive and these state agencies aren't exactly flush with cash. MN has been mandating testing of deer registered on opening weekend of gun season(in some zones) for a few years. They get the most bang for their buck that way. No different than law enforcement ramping...

Reading between the lines it appears he got a doe a mile to the north.
