The assault on the 1st amendment from both parties in the past 10 years is concerning. We are certainly in the midst of some troubling times and the ship isn't headed in the right direction (in this regard) at the moment, IMO.

Color me skeptical. You've got my vote for MN deer czar though! I've said this before, when driving through SE MN to bow hunt my place in SW WI, the public land parking spots are full of WI and Iowa vehicles who buy NR license (in MN)to hunt the rut with a gun. Those same parking areas are...

Agreed and that stinks for you guys. I just don't understand why states like MN continue to want to make it easier, through legislation, to ensure every hunter fills their buck tag.

For sure. I just wish other states would do something to actually improve the age structure instead of the continual "race to the bottom" of these liberal, all inclusive regulations. Two years ago MN became a crossbow for all state. Next year during the gun season, areas in the southern...

I wasn't talking about gross harvest numbers, those numbers aren't relative state to state in a discussion like this, IMO.

Another tidbit from the podcast, Iowa is second in highest percentage of yearling buck harvest behind WI. The reason they get away with it and other states could too is because the buck harvest is LOWER because the season is later. Statistically their hunters are having less success harvesting a...

That's a losing proposition IMO because the second the license sales decrease due to tag scarcity, DNR managers are getting fired. It isn't hunter against hunter to state that gun seasons can be later without detriment to the heard or license sales. It isn't hunter against hunter for crossbows...

Saw a wolf spider in my barn several years ago and almost shit my pants at the size, it startled me. Not used to spiders that size around these parts.

Different circumstances IMO but you're correct. They limit rifle tags much to the chagrin of residents but archery tags for residents and NR alike are plentiful. The tracts are bigger and the rifle hunting style out there is predominantly based on the pickup truck driving section roads. Not...

That doesn't work. DNR (or whatever they're called in each state) are responsible for maintaining hunter numbers for license sales revenue. Limiting buck tags for residents (more of a western style draw) would be detrimental to license sales and likely increase herd numbers. Hunters are...

Always been Android myself, but have an iPhone at work, hate it. My wife has seemingly a half dozen Apple products. I own a significant amount of Apple stock. Buy Apple 😂

Several years ago Doritos had a bag of chips that had a few very HOT chips in them. A few guys from work brought them to the break room and we'd take turns eating them until someone was in tears from the random flaming hot one. Good times.

How to fix every Midwest state IMO. -Move gun season to start no earlier than Nov 20 - Give crossguns their own 9 day season after gun season and before muzzle loader - Ban baiting - Profit

Wisconsin did just fine being a 2 buck state and Iowa does more than fine being a 2/3 buck state due to their late(r) gun seasons. Where WI f'd up is allowing crossguns during archery. Despite that and 2 bucks it's still a better destination state than MN because of the later gun season, even...

Sorry to leave you out, here's one.

Nobody with any credibility believes he's the best coach in the league. I'll give you top 10 but you've got to win a SINGLE playoff game before you can enter the top 5. 0-2 in the playoffs is a bad look. Off the top of my head; Andy Reid Mcvay LaFleur Both Harbaughs Siriani Tomlin Those guys...

You didn't win the division last year and you don't have the best coach in the league. Most division titles? Ok, Hang the banner! LOL

I said 50k in the other thread, if you're doing a well with septic I'd guess 60-70k. Prices may vary in your neck of the woods, maybe contractors will be looking for something to keep them busy this winter and you'll get a price break.
