    Pheasants Forever- SCAM or do they help upland hunters?

    To clarify my statement -- Nature Conservancy (at least most of what I'm aware of the lands they own in KS) - have working ranches.farmland that is actively involved in producing food - and also supporting nature. So my point was - imagine if PF were to take a similar approach or perhaps...

    Pheasants Forever- SCAM or do they help upland hunters?

    We can agree to disagree -- I believe it would be mind blowing the amount of land that could function agriculturally and be added to or opened up to hunting for upland birds if there was a shift in the focus. I digress. As to the financials - you are correct in that they are reporting nothing...

    Pheasants Forever- SCAM or do they help upland hunters?

    I'm not sure what this has to do with PF - ha -- but definitely agree --- I bring this up in a business owner peer group im in and told I'm a debbie downer in so many words. We're in for some sort of financial reset - but that's for another thread and I'd like to time leaving the US and out of...

    Pheasants Forever- SCAM or do they help upland hunters?

    Nature Conservancy owns a lot of land - it's not an issue for them. He claims he's a CPA - I can claim I'm a brain surgeon - As to my comments on the board - I am genuinely applauding them for having some diversity (A black man) and some women on the board -- the makeup in 2019 -2020 was...

    Pheasants Forever- SCAM or do they help upland hunters?

    I'd wager last months profit that the $300k is not the only form of compensation -- there is likely other entities that are harder to dig up where more money is coming from. I haven't invested the time but if one did I'm sure it or others would be found. And yes I completely understand the...

    Pheasants Forever- SCAM or do they help upland hunters?

    I dont know if you are from KS or ever read the Wichita Eagle -- but for years they had a writer named Michael Pearce -- I think he may have been on this forum at one time -- He's active on FB and we are FB friends. Anyways He wrote an article that would be in their archives about I think a...

    Pheasants Forever- SCAM or do they help upland hunters?

    That wasn't PF's money funding the biologist -- PF is paying the bioligist but the funding is coming from Grants/Fed money from the government -- your and my and everyone here's tax money -- great that it's being done -but dont let it fool you that PF is "Paying" for this. The best metaphor I...

    Pheasants Forever- SCAM or do they help upland hunters?

    I forgot I started this thread- dont visit here much anymore as people aren't as active on forums. Anyways you can review some of the comments -- if you understand financial statements and tax returns - the proof is in the pudding or if you follow the money. Living an hr from KC I admittedly...

    First Kansas Trip

    I like to hunt deer but have mostly stopped and been turned off by how most others are so aggresive over it. Suffice it to say you'll find many deertards as I call them - but there will be some good people. If I was you I'd not be in the wide open hunting during rifle season -- If you're in...

    Upland Inn

    The owner is also the owner of the "the Surrogator" -- He may have good habitat on properties he manages - but with all the habitat loss (I'd guess 40-60% or more) in the past 20 years the general area has a fraction of the wild birds it used to. And with them running people over it all...

    Land prices.

    I dont have any specific link that would be a smoking gun But if you use some of the search terms and look back at how history unfolded you can dive in as far as you want. Thomas Edison came up with DC _ but wasn't very efficient at transmitting electricity over long distances and i think not...

    Land prices.

    Exactly how the wind farm racket has been going on. I'm fine with finding alternative energies and using them - and that there has to be some sort of incentive to make it happen - but the way it's done is extremely crooked. This is probably worthy of another thread - but if you really want...

    Land prices.

    You live in KS? I'd buy you a coffee/lunch or whatever to learn more about the conservation easement I've been studying them but don't quite know enough -- a friend of mine is a land manager here in KS and his clients are all pretty wealthy folks that put their money to work here and know how...

    PF Fest in KC March7-9

    I have an old Mother brand vest -- can't remember how old it is - but I think I only saw one that was similar -- Been wanting to get a new one as the orange is pretty much faded from being outside with it in the sun over the years. Haven't seen anything that looks as good as it is.

    PF Fest in KC March7-9

    I'd never been to one before and am admittedly not the biggest PF fan - took my nearly 11 yo son with me and made the hour long drive over to KC -- thought the convention center would have actual parking - but after about 15 mins found some street parking about 4 blocks away that was way cheaper...

    20 gauge ammo for quail

    I ordered some -- 2 cases -- w shipping averages out to about 12 and some change a box -- not too bad for what should be some pretty bad ass pheasant or prairie chicken loads late season. only 20 g was on sale.

    Recent dog food experience

    Ive been too lazy myself to make the switch but want to soon -- My wife is from a foreign country -- where she lived until her young adult life it was unheard of for anyone to feed their dogs "Dog food" from a store - you fed them table scraps, stews, bones etc. (One difference as well is they...

    Recent dog food experience

    Have you fed them deer? I'm ashamed to admit the last time I went deer hunting about 3 years ago I shot a doe - had it quartered up in a cooler and brought it home - I keep them on ice for about 2 weeks then cut them up (I call it wet aging -- makes for great meat but have to keep the meat on...

    20 gauge ammo for quail

    2nd that -- where'd you find those -- that's a great price -- Wal Mart (i hate supporting them - but $ savings does speak) -- lowest I've seen them is $10 range when they have them in stock.
