I do freeze some game birds and obviously deer ... I absolutely hate freezing fish. Keep what I can eat ... the rest go free.

Gifting always works ... well on possession limits...

My great uncle had an interesting take on violators. I grew up hunting on his farm / ranch along a ND river bottom. Simply some of the best deer numbers, deer hunting in all of ND. Opening weekend was always marked by a tresspasser or two ... always neighbors or locals. He would drive...

Every state is different. ND does not have possession limits for a resident at home (freezer, etc...) Flip side ND does prohibit party hunting for deer and upland game birds. Every year a few Minnesotans get busted in ND because they fail to realize that the party hunting rules allowed in MN...

The vacuum sealers do work better.

Sharptails ... calm, warm and dry ... sit tight. cool, windy, cloudy, wet ... they tend to get up pretty far out ... even early season. Sharptails love those sparcely vegitated hill tops on those cool, wet and windy days ... In the winter they sit on the south side of hilltops basking in...

ND really takes it a step up.

I will share that the DNR compass has (well at least in the past) been really, really slow in updating. It often took a year or more for new and added land to show up. I would contact the DNR and they would send me separate info. Not sure if the new areas are marked faster now or not. I...

Zeb, The WIA maps have it all. County, state and federal land is marked. The 2021 maps lost all the grid lines, but everything is there. Yellow is Federal WPA Brown is state GMA Red is WIA There is green, purple and other colors too...

DNR acknowledges the issue in the survey.

I actually pay the higher fee and have all states available. Have had this for 18 months now and it is pretty sweet. By the way it works just as well in town. Cannot remember that neighbors name a couple doors down ... OnX!

I am going electronic (mostly) this fall.

The WIA book can be found in hard copy. I have found them in a little gas station in the county Zeb hunts most (MN). You can also print out the few (or all) the sheets that you need. I have found these maps to work fine. Need my readers on though.

Sold out by design. They sell out every fall before most seasons ever begin. May make a decent shell, but boy they do know how to market.

The water resistance is mostly obtained by the gore tex (or other brand) moisture barrier. I train / run dogs most every morning right now. We all get pretty damp if not down right wet.
