    Best rural eats

    Lots of great ones already mentioned but a newer one is Defiance Brewery's downtown location in Hays. Great beer, woodfire pizza, damn good nashville hot chicken sandwich, burgers, and some real Wisconsin cheese curds which are tough to find down here.

    What is the better pheasant hunting state

    Whichever one isn't getting talked about the most on this forum any given year. I'd argue that they have similar bird numbers but the birds are much more concentrated in IA due to lack of habitat. Very little range land and all of the crop fields are black within a couple weeks of harvest. No...

    When do we start the push for change?

    With your fuzzy math you're assuming kdwp pays cash rental rate for WIHA acres because nobody is taking ground out of production for less than that. That's $40-70/ac in most of the pheasant range. Then they'd have to pay that rate annually to keep it in habitat. Their budget is a drop in the...

    Wind

    Close to 400k acres burned up in the big fire. Several smaller ones in the area as well. The news coverage doesn't even begin to show the extent of the damages. And you'll probably won't see much more because the general public just sees it as some grass and cows out in KS. It's haunting to...

    When do we start the push for change?

    People seem to think its a upland hunting only program. I have great dove hunts on properties most people would think are worthless, shoot turkeys out of those barren pastures, and have even shot geese in those fields a goose might have pooped in once flying over. Regularly see pronghorn in the...

    Could We Have More CRP in the near future?

    Until payment rates go back up CRP acres are pretty much at a standstill. 99% are re-enrollments with very little new stuff. A lot more getting ripped up than going in.

    Time for a new one. Another lab or a bearded dog?

    For the last couple years I've been saying it's time to get another pup. It finally caught up to me and I'm now dog-less the last half of the season with my 9 year old lab showing lameness in his hind legs. The first half of his life was 100% waterfowl hunting and retrieving doves. A move put us...
