Woe be unto us. They are all goners. Make that "we" are all goners - I'm jumping in!

COVID certainly curtailed my own hunting opportunities greatly - in fact, it was the primary driver of what was essentially a non-existent season. I'll be pleasantly surprised if that's not the case again this year. I can't imagine that this isn't heavy on everyone's mind.

Let's not confuse discussion of an major, ongoing event that has negatively impacted all we do, most definitely to include opportunities to travel and hunt, with "politics". It's not politics, just because some happen to dislike the factual data presented and discussed. Lets not allow the...

Well, I seem to recall that the experts told us that a two week shutdown would solve the problem. Then they said you get the China Death Bug by touching a hard surface that was contaminated. Then that a mask, no make that no mask, no make that 2 masks is the cure. The best evidence we have...

What is astounding to me, is - after all this time - how little we actually do appear to know about this virus. Or to be more specific, how little we seem to know that is actually proves over time to be true. Since we've "invested" millions of taxpayer dollars to rejoin WHO, I'm sure the...

Same here, and thanks - although I wouldn't have time, or take yours, to call out all bad decisions being made during these difficult times. Damn good forum that allows this type of free exchange of opinions, ideas and facts. Best of type, easily.

I'd like to retract what I said, that was irresponsible of me. Said in jest, of course, but not so sure Ms Noem or her hubby would appreciate it - so I do sincerely regret it. I think she's one of the best Governors in office as of this date and she deserves all respect.

Well, I guess we can't rule it out. Hitherto, I'd overlooked the second part of your intriguing moniker (which is not gender specific, now that I think about it). Please send photo and brief "history", including recent blood test results. (Checking for COVID, of course). Unless you are...

I take it that you are tacitly acknowledging that the "idiot" Noem can read a stats chart better than you can. Here is info from Mayo, if facts that don't support your agenda are of any interest: U.S. Coronavirus Map: Tracking the Trends - Mayo Clinic

Really? I • U.S. COVID-19 death rate by state | Statista Ms Noem did keep the meat packing plants open to help feed the nation when it was tough in some locales to find a package of hamburger, and that did fuel high rates in those plants. For that, I'd prefer to thank her, rather than...

Sedgwick county tags would explain it. Guess we'll have to take my truck, then. Who rides in the back - you, or your Lab? But glad to hear your experiences don't appear to have been a case of random rousts on private property - most likely a call for service, which makes sense even to me! But...

'Are You Bonkers Or Just Cruel?' Anger at South Dakota Governor Over Social Distancing Hunting Video (newsweek.com) The Benelli, of course. What were YOU thinking?

My working theory is that you bear the demeanor of a desperado, hence attract an undue amount of LEO attention. (No aspersions on the Irish in general here, much too close to St. Patrick's day and that would just be ASKING for pain). While I look forward to our clays shoot off, should that...

THAT is very informative, and I thank you.

Forgive my curiosity, it is my nature. It just doesn't seem to make a lot of sense for hard pressed COs to spend time chasing about fields looking for license violations, when they could conduct the same checks (and a lot more of them) at roadside. Surely, there are other material facts -...

Never heard of any state in which county sheriff deputies would, under any circumstance, take time away from their duties to check hunting licenses. The ones I know have their hands full, without taking on other agency's functions. Do I understand you to say that most LEOs (except COs in SD...

So what was the tiff (that needed rectification) about? Just curious. Also - FWIW - not to get cross threaded here, but don't LEOs (who aren't Department of Wildlife COs) already require probable cause to enter private property? I thought that was the nub of the issue - COs having much...

Now I'm having second thoughts. I'm not 100% sure that dog was actually hitting all of the high notes.
