What’s your thoughts on the high powered rifle line being removed J? Seems insane and honestly a bit scary to me to be out on opening day this fall with my daughters knowing that the hunters on the property next to us could have a 300 mag in their hands. Seems like wayyy too many...

I don’t have a proposal and I’ve said there are many great reasons to leave it as is. And allowing handicapped and older hunters to use crossbows certainly allows them to hunt/shoot more mature bucks that they might not otherwise be able to do, I’m all for that (and I despise xguns) so not sure...

What’s your thoughts on that NDA info Skip. Seems like a big, solid, dare I say reputable organization in general. Do you know much about them? Do you know Kip? Just wondering where/how theyre getting this info (hopefully not from out of their tail parts).

Any idea as to how they know the age of the deer harvested to come up w that 10%?

I hear ya. How do you know if anything is true/accurate anymore. Maybe I’ll reach out to Kip Adams and see if he can shed more light on how this info was collected. I see Illinois listed on there as well and while I have to report every deer I take there is nothing that would give them...

Wouldn’t have ever guessed that IA had the “worst” % of young bucks being taken and also wouldn’t have guessed states like Oklahoma or Arkansas would be so good at taking a high % of 3 yr olds or older. Pretty interesting data imo I’m curious to know how they’re tracking the age of animals that...

There was a thread under the NRLO poll question the other day where I talked about how I feel the quality in IA would instantly improve if NRLO’s were allowed to hunt annually especially if it there was a substantial minimum acre requirement. This morning I was reading through the NDA’s annual...

Yea 80 is probably too small. But then again, think of it the reverse way…..Give a bunch of the guys on here that are die hards each an 80ac parcel in a couple square mile area in Michigan and that couple square mile area will be wayyyy better then areas around it that are bigger chunks but are...

Yes. And I’d also vote to completely eliminate them if I could (but probably never gonna happen)

NR here. Have voiced my opinion on this topic a few times here. Few thoughts on comments above. Definitely would hurt/reduce access for residents, that seems like a fair point and I’ve always agreed with it. Would drive the price of land up, fair point and I’ve always agreed w that. However….im...

Gotcha. Didn’t know that. Can they be killed w any weapon/season as well?

How/where is there a 3 buck possibility in IL?

Where abouts in MI are you out of curiosity? Are you a farmer? I only ask bc I live near Grand Rapids and hunt here along with a family farm in southern mi almost to the Indiana border (very good hunting “for michigan”). I don’t feel there is some urgent need to kill a bunch of does but I’m sure...

Wow.

What do I have here. Wasn’t sure if the one w red berries is a different species than the one w the golden berries or not.

I’m an equipment dealer here in west mi and about 7 or 8 months ago we added skid steers/track loaders to our offering. Been going well and starting to get more and more clients and potential clients asking about mulching heads for them so I want to become a dealer for a good line. Just starting...

So I discovered I had way more of this nasty thing than I originally thought. Spent a few hours last night spraying different areas of it only to discover this morning a whole bunch of other spots throughout my crp/switch. My problem or I guess my question is though, I’m talking over a 20-30...

It’s west central IL, don’t recall seeing it or having it before. Is it prevalent in Iowa and or IL? I spent a lot of time tonight on my quad w my sprayer just driving though this stuff hitting it w gly….should I get a solid kill you think? Some areas it was an isolated bush here or there and...

Is this lespedeza? Hardly noticed it last year in my crp/switch now I’m seeing large pockets of it. Nasty thick stuff. I just sprayed the heck out of it w roundup but not sure what I’m doing.

I have a chemical allergy n the barn called volunteer Looks like it’s 26% cleth This ok to use on clover plots right now for grassy weeds?
