Those are Sharp Tailed grouse, and yes we referred to them as “prairie chickens”. There is a season for them every fall. Fantastic tasting. Used to pluck them; careful the skin is very delicate, then bread them and deep fry them. All dark meat. Best flavoured upland game bird bar none. Southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba resident. Thanks for posting this and taking me back 50 years on memory lane.

about 10 years ago we get 50 or so of them each season between the people i was hunting with , others years we are lucky to see 2-3 of them all hunting season. Seems like every 3 years they come out LOL!. I stopped shooting or hunting them about 8 years ago as it was not worth the price of the licence to only get a few.

Ya...Seems like no matter what i do or change on the belt... It Likes to Slip... "When it Wants too.." But then it will be good for 1/2 the yard... Not sure what's up with it LOL!.. MAYBE... The Belt Size is just Too Long.... As i matched it up with the old ones... I Thought maybe Snow gets on the Belt... But Now i am thinking that is not the case... Think ill need to look back at the size of belt i installed... As i am pretty sure i matched it to the size that was on the tractor.. *So... Going to guess it had the wrong belt size installed.* Should have looked online more... for the "right size" As going to guess the belt size is a Special one...

This Tractor has "3 Belts" For the PTO Drive system... The other Bolens has "One belt" And NEVER slips. Starting to think... I need to go one belt size lower... As When i engage the belt... Some times... It's Loose , And other times it tight... So maybe the linage itself / Bushings are junk... But hard to tell with the spring setup.

1/2 x 35 is the correct size.
