    Vikings game

    They will have a lot of cap space to re-sign many of those players, should they choose to do so. I think the radio said they have the 5th most cap space of any team going into next season.

    Grouse, season start, and snares

    This is really no different than any outdoor activity. The majority of bird hunters are safe and responsible too. But there's a few bad apples ruining it for others. Like Goose who continues to lose cripple after cripple because his ammo is crap. How many licensed trappers do you actually...

    Cold fingers alert, north central SD weekend of 1/18-1/19

    That's generally the main issue. I'd make darn sure you have the ability to seek help if you need it. Good luck out there on the frozen tundra

    Vikings game

    If you would have asked me that 3 weeks ago, I would have said Darnold for sure. Now, I'm not convinced. 14 wins is 14 wins, that is a lot in the NFL. But you make your hay against playoff-caliber opponents, not against the Bears. So at this point, you let Sam walk and see what he can get...

    24-25 Season Recap

    Permission on private land to hunt deer here in MN (especially during gun season) is nearly impossible now. Everyone and their cousin hunts deer during that time period. That's primarily why I'm only able to gain permission to pheasant hunt after that season is over in mid November. Virtually...

    They weren't even competitive last night. Shameful.

    Cold fingers alert, north central SD weekend of 1/18-1/19

    I'm pretty tolerant of hunting in cold conditions, but that is too much for this guy. You'd have to be pretty desperate to venture out in that nastiness TBH

    The truth about Prairie Storm

    I realize this is an older thread, but for those who like using PS, the price has gone up. Most places charge about $30/box for it now. Scheels is charging up to $35/box! Reed's has it on sale for $25/box but you'll have to pay for shipping, obviously. I exclusively used it this past season...

    New state restrictions on boots

    Guys, its not the individual products that have PFAS that are causing the problem. Those products are safe to use otherwise they wouldn't be on the market. Its the companies that make those products and their lack of disposal/responsibility into the environment. The stuff is in nearly every...

    New state restrictions on boots

    They are class of chemicals that basically exist forever in the environment. Companies like DuPont and 3M have released them into our waterways and groundwater for years and we're all now paying the price for it. The EPA and state pollution agencies have taken them to court and they have been...

    End of shooting hours,? for evening hunters

    I have a couple. I do not carry, no need. But they are fun shooting at the range or plinking stuff outside. If you have a gun shop nearby with a range, they will sometimes allow you to shoot a variety of them to see which one you like the best. Standard or compact versions are better for...

    Ok you go ahead and use a handgun to hunt deer. I'll use my scoped rifle.

    End of shooting hours,? for evening hunters

    Standard handgun range is 15 feet. That is trained upon you when you take the course, and its the designated standard distance at pistol ranges. Its not like the movies. You don't whip out a pistol and pick off villians on the top of a building.

    End of shooting hours,? for evening hunters

    Honestly, they don't make me nervous or worry me. Its their right if they choose to do so, given they can pass the course. There's lots of unsafe hunters out there too. If you really need to carry two firearms while hunting, maybe its time to re-think where you're hunting. If a zombie shows...

    There will be a lot more purple there than Rams fans. That's 100% guaranteed

    End of shooting hours,? for evening hunters

    Exactly. And if a threat is coming at you, you aren't going to convince me that a handgun is a better option than a shotgun. Ever. Insecure individuals. I respect the right for someone to carry a handgun if they have the permit for it but doing so when you're already carrying a more...

    End of shooting hours,? for evening hunters

    Huh? I've been donating cleaned, vaccuum sealed birds to family and friends for 25 years without this documentation you speak of.
