I went last year but didn't sit in on any of the seminars. I'm going to try and make a few this year. I did get a chance to speak with Larry Brown outside of the show. I bought a used side by side at a Scheels in Des moines. I was filling out the paperwork and he walked uo and said he used to own it. We talked for an hour or so about birds, dogs, training, etc. He gives a talk about hunting other upland birds that I was thinking about sitting in on.

I would recommend the below seminar. Obviously what comes out of the new farm bill will be the nations backbone in set aside acres.

Pheasants Forever's (PF) second-ever Farm Bill Forum will take place at National Pheasant Fest 2008. At 10:30 AM on Saturday, January 19th, U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee Chairman Tom Harkin (D-IA), U.S. House Agriculture Committee Chairman Collin Peterson (D-MN), and U.S. Acting Agriculture Secretary Chuck Conner will participate in a panel discussion about the 2007 Federal Farm Bill. The Farm Bill Forum, presented by the law firm Gray Plant Mooty, will be held in seminar rooms 10 & 11 on the upper ballroom level of Saint Paul’s RiverCentre, the site of National Pheasant Fest 2008 presented by Cabela's.

I guess that I'm full with the politics. I'm more interested in all the sessions they have about improving habitat. You couldn't buy the amount of expertise that's going to be there, and the knowledge that they're going to share is worth it's weight in gold. How much time and money gets spent every year on planting the wrong seed, or putting in a tree package but not knowing what you're doing.

I guess some of the dog seminars are going to be worth the time. I am amazed at some of the stuff I read in the dog pages forum.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      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

      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.

      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.
