    white tail.

    I am thinking about planning a pheasant trip to the Dakotas with my ol' man next year. They are harder and harder to hunt in the wild.

      The guys I sat by on the plane to go to the Wisconsin game were going to SD to do that. They said it's the highest concentration of wild pheasants in the country in that state.

          Do it, you won't regret it. It's one of the best hunting trips I've ever taken.

            I would love to go whitetail hunting some day.

              • My bishop gave a talk about 3-4 weeks ago, he talked about Al Golden and how he wants the players at Miami (commonly known as The U) to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Related this concept to missionary work or other gospel things that might at times make us personally uncomfortable.

                My ward is a buzz with the phrase "comfortable being uncomfortable", I have never seen anything like this. Everyone seems to find a way to work this into their lessons, comments, talks etc.

                • A fellow longtime ward member (20+ years) had a stroke last week and is in pretty bad shape, but is going to be OK with a lot of rehab. As they talked about this in Priesthood Opening Ex's, a retired doctor raised his hand and asked permission to talk about the signs of a heart attack. The 81 year old got up and said "Brethren, we lose good people to heart attacks and strokes because they ignore the warning signs and want to tough it out. Don't tough it out. If you have these symptoms (symptoms check list given) go the emergency room immediately. Don't go to urgent care - go to Emergency." I was sitting next to my good buddy and he joked about having half the symptoms all the time. We laughed it off.... On Monday afternoon my golf/lunch/good friend has the symptoms for real, and instead of toughing it out like he has done in the past, he goes to the Emergency Room. Within the hour they were doing an emergency triple bypass on him.

                  What I learned in Church is that the Lord shows his tender mercy if you're paying attention. My friend said that if not for the good doctor telling everyone not to tough it out, he might have just ignored it and suffered the consequences until it was too late. In my first person perspective, it's all right there before my eyes, and my eyes still can't believe the anecdotal coincidence.

                    Really? Maybe I haven't seen enough whitetails, but they sure seem small.
                    It seems like shooting a large dog to me, although I think they are prettier than mule deer.

                    In PA, the guys would sit in tree-blinds and drink all day hoping a deer wandered into their clearing.
                    Maybe you really just want to drink in your treehouse? In which case, I'm in!

                      That's a great story Clack. A wonderful spiritual an physical reminder. Unfortunately you left out the heart attack check list, I hope we don't lose a good board member today because of it.

                        I guess the bad board members are fair game?

                        He rattled off some acronym, but his message was clear. Don't be a hero.

                            I wasnt there but something tells me that his message was to remember the acronym and the signs.

                                LOL. You forgot to mention they use shotguns instead of rifles. All the drinking makes it more of a sport.
