I've hunted out of my home state (5 different times - never encountered a Game Warden in those 3 states). In KS I've only been checked 5-7 times if I had to venture to guess -- all were positive except one. 15 -17 (time flies) or so yrs ago was when it happened - I was with my brother and 1...

You seem like an alright fellow -- I'd google hot spotting and delete any reference to the exact locations or scouting you did -- if you'd like to go back next year and not have the place overran - edit your post to be less specific on locations. Hot spotting is a thing and has been for a # of...

You sound like a shill for PF -- (I am kidding) -- but one key fact I think you are ignoring or dismissed is the reason people have stopped bird hunting is 2 fold - loss of suitable #'s of huntable birds (less targets) and loss of access due to deer hunting.

This is KS wise -- but I had my 1st Setter get bit in 2010 -- it was after Thanksgiving and almost December -- the drive out to where we hunted it got down to 10 degrees at night -- the day we were hunting was only about 50 with a 10-15 mph wind from the North -- we were in an abandoned prairie...

The chemical companies have brainwashed everyone or used their mob mentality to force everyone to "buy-in" -- not just like that on that road -- lots of KS is that way now. How quickly it changed.

Troy - I missed this post initially - congrats on your retirement - If you recall - my 1st dog Macy was directly traced to your kennel - (She was whelped 2000) -- She's my FB profile picture and I miss her to this day. We got on a lot of birds together until 2012 and I did as well with her...

I know you have me on ignore and the initial slight was meant at me - but if PF and QF chapters operated with an access mentality then they'd have more support. KS will allow all sorts of special license plates -- As they said on the deal you posted - they need enough signatures for the...

To clarify my statement -- Nature Conservancy (at least most of what I'm aware of the lands they own in KS) - have working ranches.farmland that is actively involved in producing food - and also supporting nature. So my point was - imagine if PF were to take a similar approach or perhaps...

We can agree to disagree -- I believe it would be mind blowing the amount of land that could function agriculturally and be added to or opened up to hunting for upland birds if there was a shift in the focus. I digress. As to the financials - you are correct in that they are reporting nothing...

I'm not sure what this has to do with PF - ha -- but definitely agree --- I bring this up in a business owner peer group im in and told I'm a debbie downer in so many words. We're in for some sort of financial reset - but that's for another thread and I'd like to time leaving the US and out of...

Nature Conservancy owns a lot of land - it's not an issue for them. He claims he's a CPA - I can claim I'm a brain surgeon - As to my comments on the board - I am genuinely applauding them for having some diversity (A black man) and some women on the board -- the makeup in 2019 -2020 was...

I'd wager last months profit that the $300k is not the only form of compensation -- there is likely other entities that are harder to dig up where more money is coming from. I haven't invested the time but if one did I'm sure it or others would be found. And yes I completely understand the...

I dont know if you are from KS or ever read the Wichita Eagle -- but for years they had a writer named Michael Pearce -- I think he may have been on this forum at one time -- He's active on FB and we are FB friends. Anyways He wrote an article that would be in their archives about I think a...

That wasn't PF's money funding the biologist -- PF is paying the bioligist but the funding is coming from Grants/Fed money from the government -- your and my and everyone here's tax money -- great that it's being done -but dont let it fool you that PF is "Paying" for this. The best metaphor I...

I forgot I started this thread- dont visit here much anymore as people aren't as active on forums. Anyways you can review some of the comments -- if you understand financial statements and tax returns - the proof is in the pudding or if you follow the money. Living an hr from KC I admittedly...
