    If you had f##k you money and could import any wild game to your state what would it be?

    If I could, I would use that money to try and help the native species. In my case in particular, that would be moose.

    Best handheld 2 bino combo for 2 people

    3 sets seems like overkill to me, but if you have the money, why not? I voted for A, but I might switch it to 12x +10x BRF

    Binos Vs spotter

    I would buy the best binos you can afford first. Don't settle for middle ground, otherwise you'll find yourself in the same situation in the future wishing you had just bit the bullet right away.

    Buying land in Minnesota?

    I would think it would be very easy to get the tillable land rented. The person who rents our neighbor's property offered to sign a contract as long as we wanted at a rate much higher than we're getting from the CRP without even thinking about it...so I would start by talking with the...

    Buying land in Minnesota?

    Note that there are no bears in SE MN if you are interested in that area. There are tons and tons of deer and turkeys.

    Buying land in Minnesota?

    We have land in SE MN. There are certainly ways to make money with the land you would purchase, but I can't see any way that the income would exceed the expense of purchasing and owning the property. If you do purchase, I would recommend renting the tillable out to a farmer. You should be...

    Decision is IN!! Shoulder Mount or Euro Mount?

    I voted shoulder. Mounts are about the story to me, and it sounds like this is a good one.

    Off-road Stroller

    We have a burley solstice. Went to the store to buy a bob but saw the burley sitting there. Tried to convince ourselves the bob was the right decision but just couldn’t do it after seeing the burley. Now using it with our 3rd son and love it.

    high winds

    I hate hunting in high wind. That said, I don't think it makes a huge difference during the rut. Shot one of our biggest bucks in extremely high winds. Bucks seem too dumb to care if they smell you or not in the rut and does are already on edge from being chased by the bucks, so a doe running...

    Conservation Organization

    A lot of them are well well north of $100k. I'm definitely in favor of them making a living as well...even a real nice living...just not so crazy as some of them. A lot of the organizations that aren't conservation organizations were even more off-putting to me after looking at their 990s.

    Conservation Organization

    I looked into this several months ago. I was going to make a big commitment to one and trying to decide on one. Ultimately I decided on none because I couldn't get past the salary the top end people make in these organizations. You can find this in their 990s that should be available online...

    Warm Boots for Stand Hunting?

    I've always used these: https://www.lacrossefootwear.com/men/outdoor/winter/ice-king-10-brown-400g.html I don't have experience with anything else, but those work for me. Not the greatest if you have lots of difficult walking to do, but manageable. I usually just switch to hiking boots when...
