Road shooting


Steve Foss

Recommended Posts

I know you can't shoot from a vehicle unless you have a disabled permit that allows you to do so.

But I can't find anything in the regs regarding shooting from, across, or within a certain distance of a road. I don't hunt near roads, preferring the logging cuts off the Echo Trail up here near Ely, but on the way from Bemidji to Ely last weekend I saw people set up and hunting within 20 yards of Highway 1, and wondered what the law states.

From page 60 of the hunting regs:

"Other Restrictions

• Rifled barrels on shotguns are legal statewide.

• No person may discharge a firearm or an arrow from a bow on,

over, across, or within the right-of-way of an improved public

highway (including but not limited to federal, state, county, and

township roadways)

at a big game animal or a decoy of a big game

animal that has been set out by a licensed

peace officer.

• A person may not use a dog or horse to take big game.

• A person may not take big game by archery while in possession

of a firearm, except a person may take bear by archery while in possession

of a firearm.

Have a good one and N Joy the Hunt././Jimbo

Hey STF

Get this.

Last year coming home from up north, there was a line of hunters posted right along Hwy 10 just west of Sartell. They had guys pushing the woods TOWARDS Hwy 10!

I just cant believe how stupid people are. I am sure they were thinking that by doing this the bullets would not endanger the people driving cars, but what about the deer running across the highway???

Holy cripes.

Yeah. I've been a part of big drives, and may be again sometime, but I can't see trading it in for just sitting there all alone or still hunting by myself. And driving near a highway like that, there's just too much pucker factor for me. blush.gif

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
