    You Can't Fix Stupid - $87,000,000 California Lion "Crossing"

    I don’t think anyone is up in arms. They are spending 87 million on the only species of wildlife that they have in over abundance. They are protecting lions which are overpopulated and ignoring deer herds that have been in a steady decline for decades. Lions eat deer right? Ya but it’s a win for...

    Or you could commute from Melville to two dot? If two dot is a little too big for you. Lots of options

    You Can't Fix Stupid - $87,000,000 California Lion "Crossing"

    The lion population has grown ten fold since 1920 in California. The deer population has declined from over 2 million to 400-500,000. Is this the right species to spend 87 million on in that state? Why do they favor one species the lion over the other species-deer? Kind of like wildlife racism...

    You Can't Fix Stupid - $87,000,000 California Lion "Crossing"

    Lions kill 52 deer a year on average with the massive over population of cats in that state not a lot of deer will be around to use that crossing. Lions range is HUGE and they don’t need a bridge or need to even cross that highway to find another lion to mate with. They don’t need to cross the...

    What happens when you die?

    Quit peeing on my parade!! The mounts are part of my retirement portfolio 😂😂 I made sure it’s diversified with shoulder mounts,some full body mounts, straight horns, tanned bear,lion and bobcat hides. In reality I’ve seen terrible taxidermy sold for a lot in my opinion and I have first hand...

    Shed hunting with a dog

    What’s the solution/ training tip for a dog that likes to retrieve and find antlers but doesn’t want to always bring them to you ? Working with my sons lab that is doing good on waterfowl I think but I’m not a great judge of bird dogs. I have run hounds for decades and they are a different...

    Do you own a ranch?

    This is funny but very true. That’s how I know when a new Transplant just bought 5 acres around here. They Post the heck out of it. I don’t know how to tell them nobody wants to hunt on their new “ranch “ . Most “livestock “ on these ranches seems to be chickens 😂 I was excited to see in the...

    How many days do you rifle hunt specifically for deer in your home state?

    North Idaho rifle whitetail season is almost 2 months long(it’s too long I think). I put 10 days just because I love deer hunting locally and can get out a lot even if it’s a few hours. If I think about last 30 years 10 Is a good number as I like being in the woods in November and I am pretty...

    NM Draw Apps Open 22

    Somehow I think we would both find a way to deal with it! For some reason I have a good feeling about drawing a sheep tag this year in NM. Looong odds on that one.

    How many days a year do you think about hunting?

    I put 300 days but we are usually hunting year round and taking July off so I’m thinking about fishing then. Ha ha It’s definitely not the most important thing to me in my life, not by a long shot, but me and my son are hunting something at least on the weekends 11 months out of the year. Deer...

    Im bowing out

    I agree 👍you often get what you pay for. I’m not suggesting it’s a good idea to seek out the lowest bidder for a real estate agent. Just pointing out there is a lot of very hungry realtors in my area since there’s almost no inventory. I would choose a realtor on experience and reputation not...

    Im bowing out

    I was just told 37 percent of the realtors in my area had zero sales last year. So how factual, I’m not sure , but this guy is heavily involved in real estate locally. If it’s true I would think realtors would be pretty open to negotiate.

    Im bowing out

    I (think😂) I understand what you are saying and it makes sense in the short term. I posted the increase for my lifetime in prior post and the average increase is 4.17 and inflation averaged 3.96. Anytime you look at long term returns after a recent run up it skews the average return number up...

    Im bowing out

    Yes- first will be higher interest rates making payments on same price of house way bigger. The fed has one tool to fight inflation, it’s interest rates. Market is pricing in roughly 5 interest rate increases this year. Second is way less discretionary income as more monthly income is gobbled up...

    Im bowing out

    Here is 100 years 3.1 vs 3. So I guess it probably is just slightly more than inflation . just using my Google fu as I refuse to spend any significant time researching so I can cite my sources on a hunting site. 😂 Everyone should agree it’s very difficult for young people to afford housing right...
