not really, farming is always evolving. None of them do it they way we did in the '80s. Farmers are far smarter today.

Just needs a little dash of snobbery mixed in along with a big heap of denial.

I’m tryin to cut down on snobbery. It’s a “new me”.

Don't get to carried away with the new nicer persona, we have to have somebody to Beetch about and make us feel better about ourselves

I’ve often wondered how city people come to be so smart & such ranching experts. Then I happened across this article, & it explains it all. Excuse my simple copy pasta.


How city people come to know so much.

First, your born & reared in the city. Maybe not downtown Dallas exactly, but some [censored] suburb of D/FW, or Houston / San Antone, where you can’t get off pavement without driving >30 minutes in any direction.

Your schooling consists of Yankee fairy tales, liberal indoctrination, inflated self-worth, & a sense of entitlement. Mom makes you chicken tendies & brings them to the basement for you, life is good.

Then comes college, where you remain in the big city, maybe work some low paying job inside a building, repeating the same simple mundane tasks repeatedly. “Would you like chocolate sprinkles on your 1/2 soy mocha latte with caramel?”, you repeat 87 times a day.

Your professors are all liberals, mostly from California. You believe whatever they tell you, after all they are SuperSmart, just ask them, they’ll tell ya. You take a buncha stupid classes that has nothing to do with your career field, or even current reality. You rack up 10’s or 100’s of thousands of dollars of debt learning underwater basket weaving, gender studies, & how our country is racists +/- we are all [censored].

Then you get graduated, take a job where you have to commute 30 minutes (if traffic is agreeable that day). Later on, you meet some ol gal, who is as spoilt & piss [censored] ignorant as you, although she is tougher & slightly more masculine.

The years go by, you have a few kids who are spoilt brats, your wife gets fat & “acquires” a herd of cats, while knocking back Zinfandel & prescription pills like they are tic tacs. Your kids play soccer.

You take a new job downtown, adding another 20 minutes to your daily commute. You still have to kiss all the bosses asses, but now a coupla younger employees gotta kiss your [censored], so you feel more important. Your desk is really nice, no need to leave it til 4:45pm 5 days a week.

You are also a sportsball fan. Your local city team is filled with players who hate you, our country & our way of life, but you don’t care, you wear the jersey with their name on it & wear it with pride. You enjoy giving money to delusional liberals who hate you.

Your kids now go off to college, one comes back a non-binary, pansexual transgender & the other a
Democrat. Your not sure which one your more proud of.

But now your empty nesters, & you’ve made enough money sitting on your [censored] that you can now afford to buy a little land somewhere. You’ve always been a ranching & hunting expert, albeit without leaving the city for more than a weekend. You start looking for a place where you can visit once a month or 2, to hone your ranching & hunting expertise. Your gonna need to tell all the locals there how y’all do everything in the city, & what they all they are doing wrong.

So you find 9 acres for sale. Your thinkin, “I could set this up for multiple deer hunters, & make enough off their stupid city asses to make payments”. When they’re done shooting up all the deer In the next few years, you’ll be able to pay it off, & move up to 15 acres, & repeat the process all over again. [censored] your neighbors. Your a [censored] genius, & it’s mostly because of your city upbringing.

What are your thoughts on gladiators owning hunting property?

Plus we have a fine team of new mods anxious for their first kill

Or they buy 5 acres and call it a ranch.

More truth to this than many may realize. Also a major contributor to the recent surge in high fences going up by landowners that don’t really like high fences.

Wow, you're talking directly to me. Realtors buying and busting up ranches north and south of me into 30-80 acre mini ranches, and they're selling. About 2/3rds of my ranch is HF now due to bad neighbors, talked to my HF guy yesterday to do more, now that these little ranches are all around me. And I never wanted a HF ranch, but if I ever want to see a mature buck again I'm going to have to do it.

What qualifies as a ranch?
