What do you or what did you do for a living if you're retired etc?

I find it rather ironic then that you say KS sportsman/women are losing hunting access and that potentially one way to get it back is if any land enrolled in CRP should automatically be open to public hunting -- I can see your perspective and do not like the gov't handout form of Agriculture we...

You claim to own land in KS - how much I dont know - I think flint hills region and it seems you get some CRP payments and live out of state. Is your land enrolled in Walk in Hunting?

Yes they are in MN -- I dont even need to look up annual pheasant harvest figures to see how successful PF has been in creating pheasant habitat in the state their HQ'd in :rolleyes: The more I hear about how they operate the more I do not like the non profit. I've personally witnessed more...

QF and PF do not care about anything other than padding corporates pockets. They are poorly run. Now I'll duck and run for cover as there are a # of QF and PF homers on here that refuse to see the obvious. Maybe they do some good around their HQ - KS, OK, TX etc - they just want your money...

The answer is habitat #1 - mother nature #2 -- Look at all the places east of KS that used to have quail - they don't anymore due to habitat reasons primarily. KS quail pops have bounced back (probably due to the drought of 2011-2012 thinning out the matted warm season grasses that weren't...

To me that's just playing with statistics like the hot button Covid death rates. No shxt a bird alive in Feb 1st is more likely to make it to April -- that bird alive on Feb 1st only has to live 2 more mos whereas one alive November 1st has to make it 5 mos to get to Apr 1st.

Ah I got you - yeah most is not very sharp - the new stuff guys put up -- WATCH OUT

Why would you be concerned by Barbed wire? Dont you have it where you are? I just let my dogs run into it - if they're dumb enough to hurt themselves that's their fault - never had one seriously injured - of course if they were I'd take them to the vet- but after snagging themselves and...

KBA has a decent pull at the state level - about time someone do something in regards to the Upland birds going down the toilet, much less the access issues caused by zero deer management.

I unfortunately agree - but will keep trying. Can't hurt.

Hopefully the owner fills it in now -- I think in most places there's cost share to fill them in. In Shawnee county KS where I live there was considerable cost share to fill in 2 hand dug wells we have on the place I live. One was 36' deep and about 10' plus feet across -- it was covered with...

It really is pointless trying to get you to understand.

Thank you for the extra details "ThatGuy"- I see none other than my present elected state official Ken Corbett presented some of the heinous legislation years ago just like he presented it in 2018 to bring back landowner transfer tags. Yes - I've heard and read many times over the years that...

You need to pay closer attention. The commission does have some say as others have pointed out over things like Turkey seasons and if one is a landowner that is in support of opening up deer regs to sell deer hunts etc. However a lot of policy is legislature driven which is what I've been...

I used to be that way - We got tired of the mess/dirt and constant cleaning required (not to mention where we live now is just not conducive now to keeping dirt/etc out with dogs due to the terrain -- Once my female passed last May no more dogs in the house. We will be building a new house...

I have no idea if any of you joined the meeting or not - I heard 3 folks I believe speak to the duck issue - commissioner Sporer even piped up on the issue which was nice. My son was with me at home and I did not have quiet so could not speak verbally but did present a question regarding deer -...

Sounds like Spaulding Hoffhacker's nemesis. If you've ever subscribed to PDJ if it's still around I'm sure you are familiar with my reference.

There are a few people who are interested - but as pointed out - it's mainly the Kansas Bowhunters Association, and the KS Outfitters association. I've tried to call the Governors office (not related to wildlife save for once concerning appointment on the wildlife commission) and fat chance of...

Yes - they are already doing so - lots of abandoned pivots s of Dodge - Ulysses has a # of them. The farmers that live there completely have their blinders on. On the FB KS Hunting/Fishing forum a couple have piped up smartass comments when I've made the comment before that live in that area...
