I've found this thread to be the most interesting and informative that's been on this site in awhile. I'm always willing to learn about things affecting wildlife. I really struggle with the cheatgrass seeds in my birddogs when I take them to bird hunt in South Dakota. I've had both eye and...

This was one of the best posts I have read on this site in awhile. Cheatgrass control is also one of the issues that Jims is working on and posting information here on and yet most of the time his posts are received with scepticism and animosity. I think we need to spend more time listening...

Comparing a high fenced ranch with 12 wells or tanks every section and with high revenue raising paid hunting seems like comparing apples to peanut butter. I've wintered in Texas this year and seen the feeders that the deer live around most of the winter not sure that's a workable wildlife...

Great job of taking us on your hunt. You take some good pictures. I live aways south of Valentine but play around a lot on some ranches around Merriman and over to Crawford. I hunted antelope there this year and have for the last 40 and we've got something going that's affecting deer numbers I...

Thanks Jims that is a very impressive explanation of cheatgrass cost and the benefit to wildlife to control it.

I really care less about the score but that buck doesn't make 190 not that I care I shoot him because he's a cool buck. I only made it about 5 seconds of my 15 allowed.

I'm happy for you, fortitude when hunting is tough is a good attribute and it certainly paid off for you. I'm in the central part of the state Southern Sandhills and it's been a tough year with numbers down so congrats on a job well done and a great buck.

Great job! You're living the life enjoy. I prefer antelope meat to deer or elk or anything domesticate. I've probably shot around 30 and never had one that didn't taste good.

Nose to nose contact through the fence wire spreading saliva. Nebraska had a fended kill farm a decade ago that created an outbreak for wild deer in the area. Now they must be double fenced to curtail contact. The prions also live in the soil for many years. A lot of science in CWD research...

He was a class act no doubt about it. It also seemed to me that he knew more about mule deer than most anybody I know of. I hope you can get it done Redbluff77 it would be an honor I think he's worthy of. I never met him but had some interesting conversations with him on here in which I...

That is a beautifully done bobcat probably one of the best I've ever seen.

Everybody likes something different and I do appreciate the effort but to me that muley looks related to a giraffe. To me it doesn't look natural of any mule deer I've seen.

Both beautiful deer you did well.

I've read most of the books listed above and I like them all. I spent some time this summer up at Theodore Roosevelt National Park and picked up a book that is different than the mountain man genre you referenced but a lot of hunters and outdoorsmen might like. Hunting Trips of a Ranchman &...

Logical is the word that got you. The Texas brothers took clients to poach over 200 trophy deer the largest ring in U.S. history and they split 5,75 year sentence between the two. I would argue that the 5.75 years between the two if not more would be the logical sentence for the 100's of...
