Many times in the early days and many times since, I feel like Custer in southern Montana with Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse just over the rise. My blunders, fails, and foul-ups are legion. Long ago I'd have capitulated, if not for one thing. On that rare day where I rise above the Neanderthal...

None taken. I've now been accused of being goose(few months back) and Limitless! I'm not goose because I don't shoot a 28, I never been to the high Canadian, never hunted with my cousin, and wouldn't be caught dead ever owning a ski boat. I'm not limitless because I've learned to shorten my...

I think the part you missed is cyclone mentioned "leases." These are very bad for trying to door knock, even after season. Here's what happens. A guy pays big bucks to lease 110 acres of private land. The owner agrees. Every year the lease is in place he will tell anyone that wants to bird...

And you said that Lucas guy has an ugly gun.

Is Mr. Jones off the I.R. ?

The last place only deserved a sirloin.

Could you take out the governor next year and teach him how to hunt?

A majority of private land seems to now be owned by absentees, trusts, corporations etc. Not easy to find the right door to knock on.

Go out early season next year. Just cruise around different public spots till you see a new suburban pulling a dog trailer with out of state plates. Buddy up with these guys and see if you can get a "pro" to work on training your dog. And maybe they can train you a little bit too!

I've always had good luck with them. I got a 2017 5.0L with 145k miles. Ignition coils go, but those are easy. All I've done to it so far is plugs and just a few weeks ago the water pump was squealing so had a new one put in.

Look on the bright side, with age you cut back on the grab ass, this should lead to better hunting and enjoyment of time afield.

Was this near Pierpont?

I didn't comment again because I only had a quick phone call with my buddy. Once I see him in person if there's more info I'll post.

You need to hunt with a 12.

The only thing you got wrong is he's always slinging bismooth on secret WPA's somewhere within 100 miles of shithouse corner.

I thought the burning was good? I suppose every year is not. I think a burn every 3 years is a better deal. I just saw a few old videos on the flint hills and they interviewed some ranchers who spoke highly of their stewardship of the land. In the videos it didn't really look like the grass...

I've read several times now that the flint hills are the largest remaining piece of tall grass prairie left. I'd like to get down to see it someday for that reason alone.

It seems like those game production areas are money about 90% of the time. WPA's, they can be hit and miss.

Some of these guys say to bring the dog to a game farm or drag around a bumper with a pheasant wing attached in grass to train a dog new to hunting. I'm sure this training helps. On the other hand, nothing can really compare to the real thing for learning can it?

You forgot about the bloodthirsty wolves that attack and kill away hundreds of people every year in MN. 😜
