Generally speaking, it is unlawful to leave an established trail. Retrieving big game would be one exception. I believe you are okay to drive out to set up decoys but permission should be a top priority. I did share that many hunters do drive out to set decoys but minimize their footprint on...

On Halloween, I experienced something that may impact hunting access for everyone in our area. My family were preparing to hunt pheasants at a slough on my in-laws’ land in North Dakota when we saw a group of hunters from Georgia drive their truck straight into a harvested cornfield. They...

My wife and I have had a tradition of going hunting on Halloween. It is one of the last days we can leave after work and still have enough daylight for about an hour to 1.5 hours to hunt. We called my daughter and her husband to see if we drove to their farm and went if they would join us. To...

I am here at work today, but my mind is somewhere else. Two weeks ago, my family and I went through a tragedy. My granddaughter passed away after just 15 days with us. She was born early at 26 weeks because my daughter had preeclampsia. Losing her has been hard, harder than I can put into words...

I snuck out for one hour after work. We had a fun night!

Heck of a game between the two best teams in the nation in FCS football.

Some super nice habitat!

Thumbs down to paying for golf. Those guys roll up to the club in their fancy SUV's and Gucci clubs and clothes - drinking White Claws. I prefer using Onx to find a suitable pasture with enough gopher holes to make an 18 hole golf course. I wear camo so nobody else finds my course and starts...

Thanks for the post of the day. Good luck on the limit of pheasants. You've got this!. However, I am feeling like the Bison will bag their limit of Jackrabbits Saturday. ;)

Youth Pheasant Opener with my nephew. He was so disappointed with not being able to hunt in the 60+ mph winds yesterday. He had a tremendous shot after I flushed the first rooster on my side of a tree row over the top of the trees on his side. He only had one miss today.

100% all day long

You maybe have met your first guy then Goose. I am blessed to be able to hunt about 35-40 days a season. I hunt many days for 1.5-2 hours after work, almost every weekend and holidays.

I am not a proponent of unnecessary noise but just view it differently than a lot I guess. Maybe I am blessed due to the number of birds that are around my area. I hunt 50% public, 50% private unposted (open to anybody). I have shot 90-115 pheasants each of the past 5 years. I hunt pointers...

It is good to be in the field again. The photos are from our first walk. Strange feeling to only be hunting with Willow who is 4 yrs old. Ellie 7yrs old is on the bench following an ACL repair. She will miss this hunting season. We started by hunting a shelter belt next to an alfalfa field...

I can't put my finger on it but I have so much confidence in PS as a shooter. I have made some shots that have stoned roosters that even made me scratch my head. I definitely use a lighter load early in the season but for late season roosters I switch to PS. I would have never guessed on my...

No need to worry about rattlesnakes east and north of the Missouri River system in ND.

I see what you did right there! :ROFLMAO:

I switched from 870 to a Beretta two years ago and love the change. The 870 is bullet proof and was money for me when it came to shooting pheasants. The adjustment to a semi-auto took a little time especially with the safety location and trying to fight muscle memory. My two cents says if you...

My dogs have to be walked and are allowed to run through grasses along the roads we walk. They are kicking up great numbers of birds but I have yet to see any chicks. I had one nest literally 100 yards from our patio that had 16 eggs. We did our best to keep the dogs away. We did notice one...
