    Cimarron this weekend?

    Yes Scalies would like that -- I used to bump them from time to time near Garden City when i lived there in early 2000s -- I think they often ran too much on me for me to figure out how to get them up. But I dont have enough experience with them. I could see the tracks in the middle of the...

    Flinty Hills

    I'm sure not all do - but the large ones you see along I70 and along the Turnpike from Topeka to Wichita (I burn that pavement up pretty regular) is pretty depressing. Looks more like short grass prairie minus the yucca and plum thickets. All about how many cattle they can graze. You...

    Flinty Hills

    Not many manage well imo. Overgraze to the dirt and burn 🔥 to the horizon every single year.

    Land prices.

    I'm gonna guess somewhere near Hutch w the Amish comment - ?? Or the general area? I grew up rural SG and Butler county and then lived near Garden after college a bit and now live NE KS -- I bought land here 3 yrs ago and am blown away what it's going for here - I want to buy more here since...

    St. Francis deer hunting?

    You'll find deer -- just get the hell out of the truck and away from the road. A lot of people just road hunt and can't walk. The smart ones will be where you least expect them and probably bigger ones out in the grass or a patch of weeds with a good vantage point, fence line etc. The big...

    2 day walk in trip

    This is the pile of Bull poo the state tries to sell and pass off - As a lot of us are upland bird hunters and either Deer, varmints, waterfowl etc -- What is good for the upland bird is ALMOST always good for the rest of the species anyone would hunt. The same is not true in reverse. What's...

    2 day walk in trip

    I've brought up before that if PF had any brains - they'd use something like Butterflies or the Monarch as the focal point of any habitat restoration or any proposed new tax etc to help fund restoration -- I loved catching butterflies as a kid - we had gillions of them where I lived in Butler...

    2 day walk in trip

    We all own to the middle of the road -- I can't go out and tear up my ditch and start cultivating it or if you live in town - tear up the curb and plant grass there instead. All they have to do is have a familiarity with survey's and plat maps. Not really an argument.

    2 day walk in trip

    PF is pretty worthless like most 501(c)(3)'s -- follow the money. If you are ever near KC/Lawrence/Topeka I'd love to buy you lunch or coffee and have a civil discussion - change my mind. I dont buy what they are selling - I used to until I did more digging. They're good at spinning to bird...

    Getting Good Rain

    Not to give you much mileage -- But forums in general are dying -- I hate it - but times are changing -- I guess at my age of 43 I was younger when these started and have been engaging/learning this way/form of communication for a long time - but younger folks and many older ones are abandoning...

    Getting Good Rain

    Well one can always wish! Ha The deer herd has been talked about as the crux of our problems -- it was managed with sound management principles (or pretty darn sound) at one point in time -- one can always wish it would get back to that. Someone posted about the finite resource --- Sure do...

    Getting Good Rain

    Troy you've never commented and I would never expect you to - but man I'd sure love it if you could be running KDWP or some part of it. Probably a thankless job but as has been hashed out here nothing can be accomplished when politics, money and wildlife all get mixed in -- I personally...
