    Hunting the public ROW - Thoughts?

    I’d feel comfortable defining the ditch width at about 12’…just pulling that out of the air, but it seems about right…the real issue is that the dog is your agent, and technically anywhere the dog is, you are…so, if you’re being watched, keep the dog in the ditch…in reality, men’s eyes don’t...

    Hunting the public ROW - Thoughts?

    Good question! I’d call SD GFP or a warden in your area. If there’s no standing crop you’re walking through, I’d feel ok walking in the ditch where if flattens out…6-8-10’ from the road edge…that’s just me, not saying it’s legal…but most ditches to me seem fairly discernible vs the crop ground...

    Hunting the public ROW - Thoughts?

    Just read that section line rights of ways are 66’ wide…does that mean you’re legal if you’re 33’ either side of the middle of the road? Sounds plausible…

    Getting old is not fun!

    For reasons that you’ve mentioned, and, to be more effective in less time invested, I’ve really focused on “micro spots” these last few years…especially when solo or with one buddy. Sloughs, chunks of grass, dry creek beds that meander through picked crop fields, etc, it’s been fun! I’m 60 in...

    How’s your shooting been?

    Few things in life cause me to feel that way…I’m getting over it, especially if I didn’t put pellets in it…but yeah, some misses just really cause a void in my whole existence while watching that bird sail away!!!😳

    How’s your shooting been?

    Better than usual? Worse? About the same? I’ve been shooting my Benelli Ultralight exclusively, not jumping around between guns, which tends to goof me up…some head scratching misses this year, but overall very happy with things…I shoot that Benelli better than any gun I own, though my Parker...

    Boots , what ya like?

    I could see that being the case in tougher terrain, for sure…I wear them in ND/SD for sharpies and pheasants…no rugged terrain, but lots of hills in ND…put lots of miles on them, have held up well. My favorite leather boots are Irish Setter 869’s, I believe, but they’ve been discontinued…very...

    Muck chore cool, shorter version…below knee height…put orthotics in them for plantar fasciitis….pretty light…easy on/off…walk for hours, very comfy…

    Velvetize pheasant with baking soda?

    I think there are a few ways u can do it…we’ve done it with chicken, seemed more tender..,may try it using baking soda and deep fry in peanut oil after dusting chunks in shore lunch or some similar dry mix…
