Hunting in Nodak about 10 years ago, we knocked down 5 out of a group of 7. My buddy went down to some cattails to get one and grabbed it by the neck and that thing started swinging and fighting and by the time he got it killed, the thing had shredded his bibs. It was funny as hell, but yeah, them things will put up a fight.

I think the 4’s will be fine. I did just fine with BOSS #5 last year. The birds were decoying though so they were within 30 yards.

Thanks

I went ahead and ordered a couple boxes of #2 Hevi shot goose loads to be safe. We should be on decoying birds since we’re booked early in the season with a good guide.

Gonna pattern both loads today

Not sure a friend set it up.
I can find out if you need me to. Private grounds somewhere around wheeler refuge I think is what he told me.

If it’s not a problem for you, that’d be great. You can pm details.

I was really hoping that I would get bumped to Hunter status when I saw I'd got drawn as an alternate but no such luck. Good luck to you guys that did get picked

Just be at my house between 6-730 any given morning for a guaranteed hunt. The boys dog chases a trophy outta my pond every morning.

It's a shame they didn't just have a short season and let anyone who wanted to participate in it. But then the state wouldn't have been able to make any money by selling permit chances. So lots of folks with no place to hunt get tags, and many who have a place to hunt don't win the lottery.

It's a great example of how this administration sees our outdoor resources as nothing but a way for the state to make money.

Bingo.

I read this morning where Utah is adding more "special" hunts for 2021-beyond. I haven't seen all the details yet but I'm sure they will have an added fee or permit.

Back when we could buy a license and go hunt, hunting was fun.

Hey I’m new and had been searching for a sandhill crane forum. Got drawn this year and need help. I’m in Wetumpka so I know nothing about North Al hunting.
Any suggestions would be appreciated
