    Any idea what the purpose of this is? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    HF 23 Dog tracking clean up bill

    The goal is to make the law so DNR doesn’t need to “interpret” anything at all, and doesn’t need to adopt rules. Not sure if we will get there, but anything we can do to reduce their workload is a good thing. A few missed meetings (covid) before session meant we missed a few requests, hence...

    Helping deer over winter.....

    There’s more corn than ever in the fields here in Derecho country, but very few deer are digging for it. We could see the browse disappearing and they were constantly on the move during hours we normally wouldn’t see them. We started putting out corn for the first time ever. There’s tons of...

    HSB 158 Crossbows in late archery season

    Yep, that’s why I got over 200 blood tracking calls this year... I don’t know anything about how easy it is for deer to survive. Reality is that pass through shots have better recovery rates. That should be the goal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    HSB 158 Crossbows in late archery season

    You’re right. Guess I just need to buy 10 doe tags September 15 like my husband does, instead of just 2 because I like to be in the woods every season. Bird numbers are up, I could bird hunt and support pheasants forever instead too. Do you want more hunters or not?? Seems everyone cares a...

    HSB 158 Crossbows in late archery season

    There’s a reason I don’t have a photo with the buck in my avatar, 35 pounds is not enough for better than a single lung shot, which many deer survive. That deer took 3 weeks to die. It took me 3 years to work up to my current 43 pounds, and I cannot draw at all when I’m chilled. Still have...

    HSB 158 Crossbows in late archery season

    I had oodles of time, and two unfilled archery tags. I cannot physically draw my bow in the cold, but because I’m not “disabled” I’m not eligible for a crossbow. Even 12 weeks of weight lifting class didn’t help. It’s not for lack of trying. I’d personally prefer to put limits on the power a...

    HSB 158 Crossbows in late archery season

    That doesn’t help me fill my bow tag. I didn’t get to hunt LM at all this year because doe tags sold out in my county faster than usual. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    HSB 158 Crossbows in late archery season

    Personally, I would love this. I’m female and despite years of practice, I can barely draw enough weight to make ethical shots. Add a bit of cold, and I can’t do it. This would actually allow me to use a bow during late season. I absolutely would not support crossbow during the rut. Sent...

    HSB 157 Using dogs while fur harvesting

    The entire hound community was warned to police their own last year. They didn’t change. Time to protect landowners rights. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    HF 23 Dog tracking clean up bill

    Exactly. And the legislator that introduced the language last year lost his election. DNR asked us to clean it up, and we hope this makes everyone’s lives easier. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Pheasants anyone?

    I get burnt out sitting still after a while. Pheasants have been great this year! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Northern Minnesota fishing recommendations

    We are headed to lake Kabetogama for the 3rd time next week. I can’t remember the name of the resort, it’s nothing special but the price is right.
