It would be great to see him hooked up to a deer harness dragging a buck out. Even after this many years out of football, I'll bet he could keep those legs churning. Great attitude too, that he does it all himself. With many of the "celebrities" you see on TV, you get the impression that once...
H&H,
Same for me though they're typically out of shotgun range. He was in pretty good shape with nice pelt. My brother-in-law was going to take him to a furbuyer. I'll be interested to see what he brings.
Saw a decent 8-point dogging a doe south of Humboldt right off 169 while I was driving up to pheasant hunt on Saturday. Otherwise, I agree we're in lockdown.
Ran up to Northwest Iowa for the day on Saturday for some pheasant hunting. Figured with the snow, it would be perfect.
There was about 7" of snow, no wind and 8 degrees when we started at 8 p.m. Worked a creek on my wife's uncle's farm and saw no birds but kicked out five does. Moved to the...
You may not have time to read it now ... it's an very lengthy story but a reporter and photographer from the Rocky Mountain News won a Pulitzer Prize for their story on the families of fallen Marines and the officers charged with first notifying families and then accompanying the caskets to...
I don't see it on their web site yet, but I got my latest issue of Field and Stream last night and they had a comparison test of several back packs, including the Camelback, Badlands, Cabela's, and a couple of others. You might want to check it out.
Danno,
I'd missed the ad so went back and checked it out. Silly isn't the adjective I'd have chosen. What a load of ... propaganda! Pictures of children and old ladies with their dogs and all terrified to go to the park.
Then there's the suggestions of deer underpasses, immuno-contraception...
I think most hunters go through a progression over time and the reason(s) we hunt changes.
Many new hunters are all about keeping score -- filling a limit, shooting the most or the biggest. Sometimes to the point where ethics become a little "flexible."
The next stage is where the experience...
Ditto to all that's been said. We've had goldens for the past 19 years and they are fantastic family dogs. Like Breiner11 said, they do shed a lot ... I sometimes wonder how our current dog Gracie can have any hair left for all that we sweep up off the laminate floors. That soft coat also is a...
Still a nice deer and probably a whole lot little more tender than that big ol' tough, stringy buck. Good one for the freezer and you've still got time to get the other one.
Travis,
Thanks for shedding some light on this. I figured there were a number of factors affecting the number of permits sold, but I hadn't thought of all of those. I would be interested but don't feel proficient enough or trust my equipment enough (even if I could pass the test) to make a...
After failing to show at any of the meetings were an urban hunt ordinance was discussed and passed, a group of Ames citizens suceeded in getting the Ames City Council to halt the hunt until further discussion can take place. People are apparently afraid for their children and pets in the parks...
