Hello Everyone,
My name is Dale Borgstrom, 53 years young, singse, with a signigicant other. I live about 6 miles south of Pillager, Minnesota.
I fish year around, mostly panfish. I try to make 3-4 trips to Devils Lake each year. The
Walleye, and Northern fishing is great up there.
My hunting is mostly Deer. I hunt all three seasons. I enjoy the solitude of Bow hunting the most. None of the noise that there is with Rifle, or Muzzle Loader. You can see so much more then.
I enjoy your site. LuvinLife told me about me about it.
Later,
Autocatt

Hey everyone my name is Chad, 25 yrs old. I live in Apple Valley from WI. I love bowhunting, muskie fishing, and the great outdoors. I do most of my hunting and fishing in WI just because it's the only place where I have some private land to hunt plus they have some of the best muskie fishing lakes down the road in a little old place called Hayward. I'm a project superintendent of a residential homebuilder during the week and an outdoor enthusiast on the weekend. I joined MNO because I love the outdoors and it fullfills my hunting and fishing addiction during the week until I can get up North on the weekends.

looking for a wealthy female between 21 and 35 years old to take care of me

 Aren't we all Spinach. I am a 36 year old divorced guy from Eagan. I have a 13 year old daughter that loves to hunt and fish as much as me. Can't ask for much more. I get out fishing about 2-3 times a week until bowhunting starts and then fishing slows to once a week and hunting 2-3 times a week.

Hi all.  Nice site!

I first duck hunted in '65 with some buddy's from White Bear, and fell in love with it.  As with every other year, I'm getting antsy about now, and can't wait for the season to start.  I lease a duck shack between Alex and Fergus and spend the major part of the season there til ice up. 

I've spent most of the summer up on the north shore of Superior, but will head back home to the cities the last week of the month and get the gear ready for opening. 

Hopefully, there's a thread on here somewhere that duck hunters do field reports or such.  See ya all later..

I am 47, live in northern Indiana, and love to hunt geese.  Hopefully, I can learn some helpful hints from you fine folks.

I use a Remington SP-10 semiauto for geese, I try not to shoot ducks as that 10 ga. is somewhat overkill.  We use FA brand laydown blinds, and mainly Real Geese silhouettes along with Clinton Big Foot fullbody decoys.  We prefer to hunt in grain fields, however, shallow water is not a problem.

Good luck all during this upcoming waterfowl season

Welcome to MNO DetSgt14!  We are glad you could join us here.  We do have some serious geese hunters on MNO.  A lot of them are spending time in the fields and their water spots.  Trying to put the smack down on those birds.  Keep coming back and I am sure you will get some tips.  Feel free to share any tips you might have too.  ::welcome::

Where in Indiana do you live?  I have a sister at Purdue.

HEY IM NEW HERE. FIRST YEAR BOW HUNTING!

I remember my first year bow hunting.  Had a doe run right under my stand after I blew a fawn bleet.  Still my favorite call.  Well you'll get the best advise in MN here on  MNO.  Just check out the archery and bowhunting forum.  Plus all the other fun stuff.   ;D
