I wish Saskatchewan did more work for pronghorns. Our herd is getting very healthy east of the South Saskatchewan River too and even small herds making their way north of Saskatoon.
They're truly great animals and I was extremely lucky to hunt them here at home in 2023 just north of Hwy 1 on...
Hunting, the outdoors, working out and if all that fails, looks like weed is legal in Washington, get some gummies, get in comfy PJs and watch LOTR. Works for me!
Something about watching the charge of the Rohirrim on blast, in comfy sweats while indulging in the devil's lettuce. 10/10 recommend.
I mean, there's only one way for turds to end up in the stomach cavity and it's by a puncturing the intestines, the same way stomach contents only end up in the stomach cavity, is by something slicing the stomach...
Maybe you inadvertently nicked it with you knife or your bullet fragmented and...
Someone cared enough to start a thread about pot shops. My point is, there are plenty of people who indulge... a lot... in alcohol, who oppose weed. I meet people like that here all the time and pot's been legal for years here.
It blows my mind that weed isn't socially/legally acceptable in places where booze is sold in every corner store, gas station, Walmart, grocery store, etc.
It isn't but this is one of the harsher punishment I've seen in a while. This guy definitely got the "poaching" book thrown at him. A lot better than what we see a lot of those poaching influencers get.
This guy clearly didn't have the same legal team as Muley Freak or the Bowmars... These...
I usually add a preamble to that saying: "If you're going to bitch and moan because you didn't get anything... then don't pass on the first day what you would beg for on the last".
... and if you do bitch and moan, F U, you're on your own and in it for the wrong reasons.

From experience, hunters are some of the biggest slobs and most disrespectful "outdoor recreationists" out there, who are only looking out for themselves and their own successes. There are obviously hunters who are outstanding users of this resource who...
... and to be honest, I blame influencers for that too. Filters, trick picture angles, photoshop, etc., paint underwhelming landmarks as absolutely gorgeous and spectacular.
IMO, a lot of people travel for the Gram and pictures they can post and boast about. We took a family trip to Iceland...
I never once alluded that I don't think those hunters should be able to hunt, at all.
But who recruited them and what was their actual goal? Hunting media doesn't recruit hunters out of the goodness of their heart, they do it to generate revenue.
That revenue is generated on the backs of the...
Okay but hear me out, is it possible that hunting media has directly affected the amount of hunters on the landscape by encouraging existing hunters to travel more and recruited more new hunters?
I've been hunting 20 years and for me, things were slowly worsening over time, but not by any...
If you're one of the new MeatEater era hunter I would say you're hunting has gotten better for YOU, but not those who hunted before you. You're now one more hunter in the pot competing for tags and access.
To answer your last question; I would say 3/4 of new hunters I interact with will bring...
That's a fair take. But in a different world Steve Rinella could also take a hard look at what his business has become and the negative impacts it's had on most hunters. He could use his platform to advocate some of his brother's takes and adjust MeatEater's course. Hunt Quietly lays out what...
BLUF: While Canada's healthcare is not the best, it is very good and accessible to ALL regardless of insurance or personal wealth.
I wonder what the wait time is for those who cannot afford health coverage in the US?
I would guess these stats are for benign ailments. I'm in my mid-30s and have...
