I guess I'm cheap - Russel Athletic t and long sleeve shirts - can buy them at Wal Mart even though I dont like the store - mostly found on their website - some stores have them in stock - but they have the breathable stuff for when it's warmer - or layers meant to keep your heat in but still...

Maynard - nice to see you here - Have you looked into any wetlands or Playa restoration programs? Dont know the lay of your land - but I believe big money is payed to restore playa's if you had one or have any on your property - much the same you can get some good money from selling a permanent...

Ah those look awesome - Cokely farms N of Topeka has a setup like that - had forgotten about his until you posted the picture.

Call me gunshy I guess - I've removed myself from 2 or 3 hunting dog groups due to asking for tips and advice on a dog medical issue or even giving away what I considered a rescue dog instead of putting it to sleep. FB warriors are pretty harsh and the dog people can be even more nuts than...

You seem like a fair guy from your posts - I wouldn't take offense - not in the posters mind but more likely a comment about the younger generation taking over farms and everything being about the dollar now and the changing times. I'm not a fan of how things are changing either but bound to...

Hi all - I'm getting closer to having all the dominos fall in place finally on building a new house/shop on roughly 80 acres we bought. Looking for some suggestions or input or ideas from folks --- Here's some things about my situation: Presently 2 Setters - at max Id likely never have...

I've got a tracked skid loader - a big one - I'll keep the honeysuckle out and manage the piles left - for sure while I own it, wont get overgrown again -- for the hell of it if I get carried away I may rent a big track hoe and rip out all kinds of trees they dont take in the near future. I...

Well the logging company started logging on a neighbors land close by - I knocked on their door as they lived a mile from the property being logged and met them for the first time and obtained permission to drive around and check on their work. Pretty happy with what I saw. Just talked to the...

You may heed Troy's advice and add Hays to your list to check out - probably fit your bill - KS winter can be bad enough but I'd sure not want the SD winters. Plus it'd be a lot closer to Denver.

If I wouldnt own it long enough or live long enough for it to be logged again would that matter? Guessing that would apply to "timber" type properties - and not where natives are growing?

If we can work on a tax basis that's awesome - of course I'm still waiting for his research on the issue - Im hoping it works out that way vs a Royalty -- I LOVE deferred taxes and provided the gov't doesnt do away with 1031s etc there's always a way to avoid them. I'm also planning on platting...

Certified forester and on the KS Forestry lists and buyers list. I gambled and went with my gut - have heard 2-3 people talk good about the company. Just bought the property in June - Good looking out on the ruts - I'm concerned about that - I live right here so will be keeping a close eye -...

My wife and I purchased a small chunk of ground next door to where we live now - farmland, waste, timber - we will build a house on it but I had the inkling before we bought it the lumber was worth some money. Had a timber buyer come out and I inked a deal with them - simple one - they can...

I've heard that about the new ones -- I dont hunt where it's wet - I hate walking through grass with heavy dew and getting soaked up to your chest depending on the grass - call me a sissy or whatever - but always felt that way - ruins your day if you are out on a long outing. Anyways 03 or...

1000x easier than the alpha 100 You can program several dogs corrections in (if you're running more than one) There's a toggle switch on the right side -- you just push the up or down button (a physical button - think your volume button on the side of your phone - but BIG and easy to use with...

My friend has the 550 or whatever the super basic trainer/gps model is below the Alpha 100 in the past -- I think it's relatively new too - It worked well for what it was --- if they still offer it check it out or maybe the 10 is a revamped version of what my buddy has. I had made my bed with...

Buy the 200i - well worth the money in that you can see the screen in the sun. That was my biggest complaint with the 100 - that and all the garbage bloatware that was on it - they thinned some of that out and I think you can remove it. Broke it in last season.

I'm good to about mid to upper 20s with 5mph or less winds - any more than that I dont enjoy it and I've just not had much luck with any setter I've owned smelling very well if it gets colder than that - N wind in KS and 20s can wear ya out in a hurry ha. -- I think it has to do with the air...

Well if you ever have room in your group for an extra set of legs keep me in mind. I had areas in kS that would previously likely rival or better parts of SD - but those were a few years ago so I've pretty much stopped targeting them -- but my dogs could sure use the contacts and learning...

Are you going to hunt during the week at all? I've got 2 setters -- 3yo and 4 -- they just need more bird contacts but have been on enough - I've only had the 3yo one year and the 4 yo now 2 years so they're just coming around to really getting to know me. I live in KS and am self employed...
