    Trapping Thread 2025/2026

    I was hunting in NM years ago and a pack of those things trotted down a dried creekbed. I thought I was in a Dr Seuss book for a minute.

    How about an Eastern US hunting issue?

    Exactly the question that popped into my head.

    Trapping Thread 2025/2026

    I strongly suspect it’s abused here as well. But, I can’t control what others do, only what I do. If my kids want to join me, I’ll let them tag some critters. When they are old enough, they’ll also set their own traps. But, I’m not letting my 6 year old get close to a 330, or go in open water...

    Trapping Thread 2025/2026

    I’ll let them tag it if they are actively out with me helping check the traps. Otherwise, I tag it. In MN a licensed trapper can check/tend traps for another licensed trapper. Both of my kids have lifetime licenses and have their otter tags. They also have to make the trip to register their...

    My son got his tonight. He couldn’t lift it for a picture.

    Trapping Thread 2025/2026

    Well below zero this morning, but my daughter wanted to join me checking traps. She was rewarded with an otter and is super excited that she gets to put her own tag on this one.

    Hammer vs Barnes question???

    I have no reason to try anything other than Barnes in my 270 WSM. It’s the only rifle I own, or plan to own. I’ve taken moose, elk, deer, antelope, wolves, grouse, and any number of other critters with the 140 tsx and 130 ttsx. They shoot very well and results are boringly consistent. Pencil...

    ‘25 Iowa whitetail

    The only beer I could get my hands on in high school was Special Export Light. It tasted bad back then, I can’t imagine what it tastes like now.

    I got a late start to the year but I’m finally on the board with something other than a skunk. Big male otter.

    ‘25 Iowa whitetail

    The 40 next to me in southern MN just went for $800k. Nothing special about it. Crappy ag land and decent, but not great, hunting. A neighbor bought it just because she didn’t want new neighbors building a house there.

    Spray foam

    I’ve priced it out numerous times. The pros can always do it cheaper than I can buy the kits for.

    ‘25 Iowa whitetail

    I thought that said “SxSs struck!” Much different than stuck. I feel a lot better now.

    Took a quick walk this morning and nabbed a pair of MN roosters.

    Anyone have experience clearing snow with a tracked skid steer?

    We use our tracked machine with a blower and wheeled machine with the snow bucket. The tracks do fine, but we don’t have any steep hills. I wouldn’t use the tracked one with the bucket, though.

    Can your hunting rights be bought?

    Wish I knew this trick in college!! I love liverwurst.

    Can your hunting rights be bought?

    My MN bear tag could definitely be bought. The price would be about what a NM landowner elk tag runs.

    So much for the vaunted Swarovski warranty.

    I think you are confusing defective with damaged. Your binoculars are not defective. They are damaged.

    E -Bike recommendations

    Why not get a mid-drive so you can take advantage of the gearing? Mine will climb any hill that you can get a bike up without flipping over backwards. Dual motor would gain me nothing. It has no issues getting me and critters out.

    The worst sounding elk calls I’ve ever heard were made by elk.

    So much for the vaunted Swarovski warranty.

    Exactly the comparison I had in mind. If I drive a new truck off the lot and smoke a deer a mile down the road, I don’t expect the manufacturer to give me a new one.
