I’ve never heard of anyone using them before. Did you use them for communication like starting a drive or to try and move deer?

Mainly to move deer. However, they sound similar to a gunshot so could usually be heard by everyone at the start of a drive. This was before cell phones. You should give them a try if your into making noise during drives. Later on some guys thought making loud noises was counter productive so we adjusted our drives a bit to incorporate the drivers walking slower and even pausing to stand and talk to “make the bucks uncomfortable.” Big/smart bucks seemed to hold until the last minute so I do think there is some truth to this, more so sometimes they would hold long enough they could slip out the back/direction the drivers were coming from.

Nothing wrong with it, I just would never think land was that expensive there...I would not pay 700K even in Buffalo county...

most people don't buy land "for the hunting". The high price isn't because there are giant bucks on it

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.
