    More trouble in the legislature

    I believe these bills don't have a chance but you never know when a bill is tabled for potential later action, in MN's broken legislature they sometimes get added back in and voted on in the dead of night in the final hours of the session with no public awareness or testimony. HF 40--This...

    SD Passes Eminent Domain ban

    Not sure this isn't too broad a ban but it will help put a damper on even more intensive corn and ethanol production in the region. (the push to invoke eminent domain to build a CO2 pipeline to allow ethanol plants to claim carbon neutral operations is the impetus for it)...

    New legislature, and they are back at it--weakening Deer Farm and wetland reg laws

    Both introduced by republicans who profess to be sportsman but don't have a clue. The kind that routinely believe wild false conspiracies and facts aren't familiar to them. Nathan Wesenberg--from an area of the state near new CWD findings recently--wants to weaken deer farm regs. His claims...

    New CWD findings.

    One deer near the metro area, 30 miles from other positives ..and one SE of Fargo Moorhead. More worried about the latter, it's the third one along the border of the Dakotas...there aren't others or known captive deer problems near there..and neither state is doing much to test for it. Is it a...

    New CWD Positive deer near SD/MN Border

    Hot off the press--in MN up against the SD border--CWD positive from hunter harvested deer. Hate to see these popping up where no other known positives are closeby--which is the case in both MN and SD--but I dont know if SD tests as much as MN does. Hopefully it's an isolated deer and they can...

    SD's Thune picked to head Senate

    What do folks that know him think--will he stand up to Trumps 2025 plan to decimate/sell public lands? From what I have seen from afar he may not be as loony as some in his party and is a classic politician but hasn't been terribly friendly to sportsmen or public lands.

    Ruger RL owners?

    Anyone own one? Do you know if the Mark II bolts are stainless or just unblued? Have one coming in 257 Bob....figure it will be a great starter for grandkids and have a bit more knockdown power than 243/6mm's. Maybe use it for speedgoats someday too. Like to see if I can get the bolt handle...

    MN Deer Farmers fighting laws designed to help control CWD in state

    https://www.duluthnewstribune.com/sports/northland-outdoors/judge-dismisses-lawsuit-challenging-deer-farm-regulations No surprise, and I can say with absolute conviction--the only reason these laws were passed was that democrats took control of both houses of the state legislature and the...

    Alps packs question

    Anyone familiar with the big bear and little bear expandable fanny packs with shoulder straps these folks make? I like larger fanny packs for most of my bird and deer hunting and my old one finally failed after a dozen years of use. Can these be worn without shoulder straps without sagging too...

    PA Sunday Hunting ban repealed?

    Anyone following this action out east, where one of the few states that still has blue laws--preventing any hunting on Sundays--was up for being repealed? Looks like a Senate bill passed just the other day, with some allowances to the farm bureau and others who made demands in exchange for...

    Seeking info...school trust land fee states

    My state has huge amounts of public land that hunters have long enjoyed. Some years back they went full "their only purpose is to make money" mode and dramatically changed management for the worse. Making money takes precedence over managing fish and game and associated recreation in most...

    New guy from Minniesota

    Howdy! I thought I'd sign up and see what things are like here. Heard some good things from guys who I have appreciated on another forum. Been vaguely aware of HT over the years but wasn't aware there are so many topic areas! Been mostly a public land upland bird and whitetail hunter with...
