My $.02 on current outdoors news and issues. ( views/opinions expressed by Doug on this blog are not of the ND Game & Fish Dept. )

so far so good

From game wardens to hunters and locker plants the best way to condense the 2009 deer season after day's .5 and 1 is "so far so good" really few complaints about the weather.

Standing crops holding deer are one common complaint, but most hunters remember the rain/snow/cold of last years opener and are keeping their criticism of the above normal temperatures to more of an afterthought, with most problems being created by deer holding into unharvested row crops and still wet/muddy ground. 

On my PM drive back tonight the combines were lighting up the night and all day long farmers were 'making hay' and that's good for farmers and hunters alike. 

Wardens reported the usual violations and complaints from trespassing to loaded guns in vehicles as well. 

Good luck and stay safe--
