    Dive Bomb Silhouettes

    Yes snow will stick to the flocking. Set your spread wide, keep the birds down wind, and they will never see the snow covered upwind side of the decoy before you make it rain. We had a 7 species shoot in a snow storm last fall and at one point every snow sock was full of snow and we could...

    Our group of 8 decided to not apply for firearms tags. Likely we won't apply next year either. I'll have a few extra days to shoot blue winged teal this way. :)

    Killed tons of ducks growing up in MN in the 90's. Tech school in ND opened my eyes up to field hunting in the falls of 00 and 01. Moved to SD, lived here ever since. really ramped up the waterfowl hunting here in SD to the point we had 2-3 trailers full of decoys and 8-10 guys scouting and...

    South Dakota Cmon

    It certainly matters when the increased pressure pushes the animals onto private; or in the case of where I was antelope hunting 2 years ago, pushes 60-65 goats literally across the state line.🤷‍♂️

    Bullet powder advice

    I wouldn't over think it for that range and size animal. buy 3 or 4 bullet types, a few powders, and head to the range. I'm a fan of the TMZ after the performance I saw on my 2021 MN whitetail. Barnes Shockwave TMZ 290 gr. over 100 gr. of blackhorn. 100 yard shot, 22" of penetration. In...

    Is it worth is to ever buy a new truck again vs maintaining your current one?

    I went from an 05 yukon with just under 200K miles to a 2019 F150 lariat with 15K miles on it last spring. I paid $45K for the F150. I put 18K miles on it in 13 months. My mileage on my personal truck will drop quite a bit in the coming years though as I'll be getting a company vehicle in the...

    South Dakota Cmon

    I know a few of the guys that wrote those proposals and brought the petitions forth to the GFP commission at the last meeting. Basically, they are trying to reduce pressure on mule deer and antelope, both of which are suffering in numbers currently. The state has all but eliminated pronghorn...

    Amazon Prime Day Hunting Deals

    Always remember to use the camelcamelcamel browser extension to look at the price history for an amazon item. Most deals are based on a discount from MSRP, and aren't much better than prices previous to prime day.

    Ruger American Predator vs. the Savage Axis vs. the Mossberg Patriot

    Same experiences with mine. RAP in 6.5 creed. I use the factory mag hunting, and 10 round magpul AICS for plinking. No feeding issues with either. More accurate than it should be given I paid less than $400 for the gun.

    How many boxes of shells...?

    I keep pretty good track of shotgun ammo consumption in the fall. Last fall was my least amount of time spent in the field in 10 years due to work. For waterfowl and pheasant last fall, I shot 11 boxes of steel, 3 boxes of bismuth, and 3 boxes of lead. Shot just under 1 case of 3" steel BB...

    Baby mojo remotes

    the 12VMonster brand remotes work ok. They used to be terrible in weather under about 35 degrees. I had 8 of them installed at one point. I've heard that over the past year or two they've improved their quality. Now I've switched over to the factory remote baby mojo twin packs. Currently...

    BOSS 1 1/2oz load 3 inch number 5 shot (Amazing Load)

    @hunter73 I see you posted the pattern percentages, could you post up your pellet counts and how you acquired them? Were you going off published load info from Boss, or did you cut your own to verify? I shot a mix of bismuth this fall on waterfowl and roosters; mainly loads from Hevi & Kent...

    WTT ******. ALERT. **** Please read

    The key change is the third party payment apps will now report annual account usage exceeding $600 rather than somewhere around $20,000. And they will report directly to the IRS, so if you don't list the information from the 1099 you get on your tax return, you risk getting a nasty letter or...
