    Caitlin Clark finally

    I like basketball and have watched a lot in the past 10 years. From 5th graders to the NBA, mens and womens. I really want to enjoy watching womens and if I watch them at the high level high school to WNBA exclusively, I can start to like it. But if I watch a mens high level high school to...

    Youth of Women’s 7mm-08

    Just an observation, Tikkas are fabulous shooters but you have to put the safety in the fire position in order to unload it. Or at least they used to require that, maybe they have changed. For kids, I prefer they have a gun they can unload with the safety in the safe position. Good luck with...

    Banquet guns

    Been a part of a lot of banquets. In terms of guns (shotguns primarily) without getting into too much detail, Beretta, Browning, and Benellis sell tickets very well. One thing to consider when getting prizes for a banquet is you want something sexy that has mass appeal. Sorry handloaders, not...

    Pack workouts

    I use a 40 lb bag of wood pellets for my Traeger. When I am done training in the fall, I use them. Dog food works well too, but if going in griz country I don't want to smell like a dog food bag. So wood pellets it is. Super easy and nothing to store.

    2026 Sheds

    Ours dropped really early this year. Late Dec into January. By end of January, they were all dropped except a very few. We scouted lots of deer (like a thousand or more) Feb 1/2 and saw exactly 3 bucks with headgear and one of them only had 1. Pretty early for here.

    Valentine’s Day stories

    Both of us recycle the same Vday card from 20-some years ago. I carefully store it every year and give it to her. She does the same. So Hallmark got us once in roughly 25 years!

    CRP vs Cattle vs. Farming for Wildlife Questions

    I have had land enrolled in CRP for quite a few years. Whey we did it, there was cost share and incentives available for planting native grasses/trees/shrubs. It basically was no cost to us for grassland establishment. CRP seems like a no brainer to me after reading your posts, especially if...

    Knives

    Most of us probably have multiple hunting knives. If you have went to a few RMEF, PF, DU, etc banquets, you have knives. I have a bunch but I always come back to my Buck 118. My dad gave it to me in 1982 for my 12th birthday. Over the years, I have tried lots of knives, but come elk season...

    What’s in them?

    There is really some truth in this. Take any great achiever in history and pair them with the "celebrity" who played them in a movie and see who gets more attention!

Senior...

    SNOW SUCKS!

    No snow for us from this storm. But we got the backside cold. It was -28 the other morning. That is air temp, not windchill. But we are now above 0 for the first time in days!

    American prairie. What's the issue?

    Some of their land is managed by lottery for elk hunting, so add that to the mix. My buddies applied but did not draw in 2024. I think (should be verified) that when they buy a property, they may keep it closed to hunting for a season or so until they get a good grasp on the status of...
