Numbers looking promising for a good fall
In June, many duck and pheasant hunters will mentally circle the backside of October as a key window for waterfowl and upland hunting. In similar manner, deer hunters also key out the dates, times and places for hunts, stake a claim to vacation time if needed, and anticipate the coming fall season.By By Doug Leier, North Dakota Outdoors , June 25, 2010

DOUG LEIER COLUMN: What's behind the pheasant, deer numbers
I’ve always been intrigued by numbers and the dynamics of statistics. While the numbers themselves, if they are accurate, are more or less facts, the factors contributing to those final statistics are where the real fun comes in. Consider, for instance, last fall’s deer and pheasant harvest numbers. When the North Dakota Game and Fish Department releases these numbers, they will be either up, down or about the same as the previous year. The interesting question is “why?”By Doug Leier , March 19, 2010
