This next fall I will be attending UND and am hoping to do alot of bowhunting. I do not have a clue where to start though. I have bowhunted all my life in the thick woods in MN. I would guess that rivers would be good spots and sloughs? Dont have to give out specific spots, I would just like to know the basics please.

Find a shelter belt next to some corn or beans. Most farmers will let bowhunters on there land. I use to have a spot right on the edge of the Turtle river state park and a feild of beans. I never got denied by any landowners about bowhunting.

I have a buddy who hunts in the exact area that cbrooks is talking about. There's some great spots there and some very nice bucks around. If you go out there in July and Aug and knock on some doors, I'm sure you'll find some places to hunt.

Harvey Lee's suggestion is a great area too, but it's a pretty good hike for you in GF. Heading straight West will be a lot closer to another good area. I'd tell you more details about where to go, but I've never hunted over there- just passing along info from my buddy (which I know is true).

Good luck!

I deer hunt up by Cando. If I were you I would try around the Lakota area!! Not to far from Grand Forks and its loaded with deer and landowners want them gone. Also the size of the deer up there is AWESOME!! Theres a lot of nice shelter belts and cattails around there so finding a place to cover isnt a problem. And a ton of corn!!!

You don't need to drive all that far to find nice bucks. Just north of town along the Red all the way up to the Olso exit there have been nice bucks taken. On highway 2 going east you could try around the Kelly slough area or the spot I told you about earlier. If you go South of town I think its posted pretty tightalong the river. If the land is posted don't get discourage and walk away. Three out of four times the landowner will let you bowhunt. Most of the time they just want to know whos hunting on there land. Good luck bowhunting and let us know how it went.

      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.
