By COLE REIF Great Bend Post

Archery deer season has been underway for over a month in Kansas, and
within another month it will be time to think about the regular deer season.


Cheyenne Bottoms Area Wildlife Manager Jason Wagner reminds everyone that on
public lands, which includes walk-in hunting, there is a limit of two tree stands
per property that an individual can have. 
"What has happened in the past is that someone gets greedy and wants to reserve the area," said Wagner. "They go set up a whole bunch of stands to prevent other people from hunting that area. So you can only have two." 
If you are leaving a tree stand on public property, the stand needs to have
your name and your Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism number written
on it. 
Wagner also states that portable or pop-up blinds cannot be left overnight on
public land. If you have a pop-up, you have to set it up that day and take it
down that night. 
Wagner has taken down stands and blinds in the past because they were
left illegally. He typically leaves a note in the place it was left to inform
hunters where they can pick up their property.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

Kansas Common crude at CHS in McPherson starts the week at
$30 per barrel. That's down $1.25 from a week ago, up a dollar from the first
of the month, but down $17 from a year ago. After posting their first weekly
loss in three weeks, U.S. crude futures prices plunged on Monday. In afternoon
trading the benchmark Nymex contract was down $1.34 to $38.51 per barrel.
London Brent was down $1.37 to $40.40. 
 
Drilling activity in Kansas was up slightly last week. Independent Oil &amp;
Gas Service reports ten active drilling rigs in Western Kansas, up two for the
week. The count east of Wichita was unchanged at five active rigs. Drilling is
underway on two leases in Ellis County, where a third has reached total depth
and is being evaluated. An operator in Stafford County is preparing to spud two
new wells there. 
 
Baker Hughes reports 287 active drilling rigs across the country, an increase
of six oil rigs. Texas added two rigs to the weekly count, while Oklahoma added
one. 
 
Regulators approved 12 new permits to drill across Kansas last week, five of
them east of Wichita and seven in Western Kansas, including one in Barton
County and two in Stafford County. That's 358 permits for drilling at new
locations statewide so far this year., compared to 876 at this time last year. 
 
Independent Oil &amp; Gas Service reports a newly completed well in Ellis
County among 13 completions in Western Kansas last week. Add one east of
Wichita for a statewide total of 14 newly-completed wells for the week, 694 so
far this year. 
 
The government said U.S. crude inventories dropped one million barrels last
week to just over 488 million. The report came less than a day after the
American Petroleum Institute reported a surprise increase in stockpiles of more
than half a million barrels. 
 
U.S. production dipped below ten million barrels per day for the first time in
six weeks. The Energy Information Administration reports average production
last week of 9.86 million barrels per day, down 586,000 barrels per day from
the week before. Output is down nearly three million barrels per day from a
year ago at this time. 
 
EIA said imports were down 167-thousand barrels per day last week to just over
five million barrels per day. The four-week average is nearly 14% less than
during the same four-week period last year. 
 
Oil by rail traffic was up slightly on the week, but remained 19% below last
years tallies. The Association of American Railroads reports 10,293 tanker cars
hauling petroleum or petroleum products during the week ending October 17. Oil
by rail in Canada is down nearly thirty percent compared to a year ago. 
 
Lower gasoline demand is dropping gasoline prices for the majority of the
country.&nbsp; Across the U.S., pump prices were a penny cheaper last week than
a week earlier, two cents lower than a month ago, and nearly half a dollar
below last year at this time. Triple-A says the national average Thursday was
$2.16 a gallon, while the average across the Sunflower State was $1.93. Kansas
was among 13 states across the U.S. with average prices below two dollars. It
was selling for $1.99 across Great Bend, and $1.90 in Hays. Filling your
15-gallon tank with cost you nine dollars more than it did six months ago, but
about five dollars less than last year at this time. 
 
The two sides in Libya's civil war appear to have completed their
reconciliation. On Friday they signed a permanent cease-fire, although
skepticism is already rising.&nbsp; The deal includes an order for all foreign
mercenaries to leave the country, and sets the state for political talks next
month. Libya descended into chaos in 2011, after an uprising toppled and killed
longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi. 
 
Renewed production amid continuing low demand have prompted renewed concerns
about U.S. crude-oil storage capacity. The Energy Information Administration
reports the national totals are safe, but users have reached 77% of capacity at
the storage hub in Cushing, Oklahoma. EIA reports on net stockpiles as a
percentage of working storage capacity. That figure reached a high of 62
percent back in June, but has since dropped to 54%. Cushing is fast approaching
the all-time high. The Oklahoma total reached 77% in the week ending June 19.
The record of 83% of capacity was set May 1. 
 
ConocoPhillips agreed to buy Concho Resources for about $9.7 billion in stock,
marking the largest shale industry deal since the collapse in energy demand
earlier this year. Concho Resources was worth $32 billion just two years ago,
but is selling for $9.7 billion in stock. The deal will create what Bloomberg
calls a heavyweight driller in America’s most prolific oil field, rivaled only
by the likes of Occidental Petroleum and Chevron. 
 
Native American tribes opposed to the Dakota Access Pipeline have once again
asked a federal judge to stop the flow of oil while the legal battle over the
line’s future plays out. The tribes succeeded on their first attempt, only to
have an appeals court overturn the shutdown order earlier this year. The
Bismarck Tribune reports they are now asking the judge to clarify his order to
satisfy the appeals court and once again shut down the pipeline. The court is
awaiting a new environmental study to determine the risk the pipeline poses to
the tribes' water supply. The study is expected to take more than a year to
complete. 
 
Given pandemic lockdown restrictions around the globe, worldwide crude oil
demand is shrinking. You can't even dock a crude-oil tanker in some ports,
where users are instead winding down inventories built up since March. Demand
for crude tankers has fallen more than 14% this year according to Lloyd's List
Maritime Intelligence, which covers shipping news. Only about 80% of the
international tanker fleet is currently in use according to Lloyd's List.

$2.16 a gallon, while the average across the Sunflower State was $1.93. Kansas
was among 13 states across the U.S. with average prices below two dollars. It
was selling for $1.99 across Great Bend, and $1.90 in Hays. Filling your
15-gallon tank with cost you nine dollars more than it did six months ago, but
about five dollars less than last year at this time. 
 
The two sides in Libya's civil war appear to have completed their
reconciliation. On Friday they signed a permanent cease-fire, although
skepticism is already rising.&nbsp; The deal includes an order for all foreign
mercenaries to leave the country, and sets the state for political talks next
month. Libya descended into chaos in 2011, after an uprising toppled and killed
longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi. 
 
Renewed production amid continuing low demand have prompted renewed concerns
about U.S. crude-oil storage capacity. The Energy Information Administration
reports the national totals are safe, but users have reached 77% of capacity at
the storage hub in Cushing, Oklahoma. EIA reports on net stockpiles as a
percentage of working storage capacity. That figure reached a high of 62
percent back in June, but has since dropped to 54%. Cushing is fast approaching
the all-time high. The Oklahoma total reached 77% in the week ending June 19.
The record of 83% of capacity was set May 1. 
 
ConocoPhillips agreed to buy Concho Resources for about $9.7 billion in stock,
marking the largest shale industry deal since the collapse in energy demand
earlier this year. Concho Resources was worth $32 billion just two years ago,
but is selling for $9.7 billion in stock. The deal will create what Bloomberg
calls a heavyweight driller in America’s most prolific oil field, rivaled only
by the likes of Occidental Petroleum and Chevron. 
 
Native American tribes opposed to the Dakota Access Pipeline have once again
asked a federal judge to stop the flow of oil while the legal battle over the
line’s future plays out. The tribes succeeded on their first attempt, only to
have an appeals court overturn the shutdown order earlier this year. The
Bismarck Tribune reports they are now asking the judge to clarify his order to
satisfy the appeals court and once again shut down the pipeline. The court is
awaiting a new environmental study to determine the risk the pipeline poses to
the tribes' water supply. The study is expected to take more than a year to
complete. 
 
Given pandemic lockdown restrictions around the globe, worldwide crude oil
demand is shrinking. You can't even dock a crude-oil tanker in some ports,
where users are instead winding down inventories built up since March. Demand
for crude tankers has fallen more than 14% this year according to Lloyd's List
Maritime Intelligence, which covers shipping news. Only about 80% of the
international tanker fleet is currently in use according to Lloyd's List.

News From the Oil Patch (10/26)

By AMY RICKER Great Bend Post

The County Medical Consultant for the Barton County Board of Health has resigned.  

Dr. Stanley Hatesohl was appointed on Mar. 16, 2020, to provide an essential community service. Dr. Hatesohl has since moved out of the state and resigned from his position.   

Public Health Director Karen Winkelman read his emailed resignation, effective Nov. 1, 2020. 

“This email is to serve notice of my resignation as a medical consultant to the Barton County Health Department as of Nov. 1, 2020. It has been a pleasure working with Karen Winkelman during these challenging times. I will also be resigning as District Coroner simultaneously as long as a replacement has been found. Otherwise, I can continue in that capacity until such time that a county coroner has been installed. Again, it has been a pleasure working with the Barton County Sherriff’s Department, Health Department, as well as local police departments in Barton County. Sincerely, Stanley Hatesohl, M.D.” 

After approving the resignation, Winkelman presented a resolution to appoint Dr. Jonathan Pike as a paid medical consultant to the Local Health Department.  

Addressing the board, Dr. Pike said the health community is trying to gather data as fast as possible regarding the pandemic, but COVID-19 does not occur in a vacuum. There are other socio-economic factors to consider.  

“I think as we move forward, if there is a decision made to deviate from the KDHE guidelines and or the CDC guidelines at any point in time, I think that deviation would require a very specific plan as to why we are doing it and a group involved with the local education communities as to how we can do that best going forward and serve,” says Pike.  

 Additionally, Dr. Patrick Stiles will be appointed as the District Coroner to serve a four-year term.

Barton County Road and Bridge will be purchasing a new Bobcat Track Loader from Bobcat of Salina.&nbsp;

Barton County Road and Bridge will be purchasing a new Bobcat Track Loader from Bobcat of Salina. 

The county currently owns two T650 T4 Bobcats that were purchased in 2014 and 2017.  

County Works Director Darren Williams says the cost to maintain the equipment is $7,000 apiece, which is an increase covered under the municipal contract rollover.  

“I’m asking the Commissioners to use that rollover option to utilize both Bobcats, which the cost this year is $7,000 for each machine, which is up about $2,450 from last year.”  

Both units will be replaced with a 2021 model T76 as the other two models are no longer manufactured.

Monday Weather

MANHATTAN, Kan. – Following a record-setting performance in the Sunflower Showdown, Kansas State sophomore Phillip Brooks has been named the Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week, the conference office announced Monday.

Brooks' weekly honor is the seventh for the Wildcats this season, which are the most since the 2017 team had eight.

A product of Lee's Summit, Missouri, Brooks returned four punts for a school-record 189 yards with two touchdowns against Kansas, the most punt-return touchdowns in school history. Brooks' yardage record edged out David Allen's mark of 172 against Texas in 1998. His single-game yardage total ranks third in Big 12 history and was the most by a Big 12 player since 2009. Additionally, his 47.25-yard average was the highest nationally since 1996 among players with four or more returns.

Brooks became the first player in the nation with two punt-return touchdowns in a single game since Greg Dortch of Wake Forest in 2018, while he is the first Big 12 ever player to do so in a conference game.

K-State, ranked 16th this week in both the Associated Press Top 25 and Amway Coaches' polls, travels to face West Virginia this Saturday. The game, which kicks at 11 a.m. (CT) will be televised by ESPN2.

Additionally, his 47.25-yard average was the highest nationally since 1996 among players with four or more returns.Brooks became the first player in the nation with two punt-return touchdowns in a single game since Greg Dortch of Wake Forest in 2018, while he is the first Big 12 ever player to do so in a conference game.K-State, ranked 16th this week in both the Associated Press Top 25 and Amway Coaches' polls, travels to face West Virginia this Saturday. The game, which kicks at 11 a.m. (CT) will be televised by ESPN2.

Brooks Named Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — There was never a question that Brett Veach, one of the most aggressive general managers in the NFL, would pursue two-time All-Pro running back Le’Veon Bell to join the Kansas City Chiefs’ electrifying offense.

The returns from Game 1 on Sunday couldn’t have been much better. Rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire still ran eight times for 46 yards and a score, and Bell averaged 6 1/2 yards per carry on his six attempts, helping their offense play a solid supporting role for their defense and special teams in a 43-16 rout of the AFC West-rival Denver Broncos.

“It was good to see Le’Veon get out and have an opportunity to carry it,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Monday, “and you saw the things he’s capable of doing. And it all starts up front with the guys blocking. I thought they did a nice job.”

The pass protection wasn’t nearly as good, but it didn’t need to be. The Chiefs only ran 47 offensive plays thanks to a pick-6 by Daniel Sorensen and a kickoff return touchdown by Byron Pringle with Patrick Mahomes and Co. on the sideline.

“So the defense’s snaps were way up. The offense’s snaps were way down,” Reid said. “We weren’t able to get the whole game plan going the way we wanted, and the rhythm — by that point we’re way up — and that’s a good thing. That makes the head coach very happy. But it cuts down on the opportunities for the offense to do its thing.”

Mahomes still finished with 200 yards passing and a touchdown without an interception, and wide receiver Tyreek Hill finally got involved in the offense with a second-half score. Travis Kelce only had three catches for 31 yards, but again, the Chiefs didn’t need much offense from their star tight end in a game that got out of hand early.

“I thought Clyde obviously continued to put up tough runs and break tackles and get different types of stuff,” Mahomes said, “and I thought Le’Veon did a great job of coming in off a week of practice where you only get a couple days and being able to step right in and have a few big runs and really get his footing. Obviously there’s still some little details that we need to work out here and there, but for someone to come in and have success like that early is really exciting.”

The defense of coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is back on track after it was torched by Derek Carr and the Raiders in a 40-32 loss at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs were stingy against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills and dominated the Broncos, who got much of their yardage in mop-up time in the fourth quarter.

The kicking game remains iffy after Harrison Butker missed another extra point, though Reid said he’s not concerned about it. Part of the problem is breaking in a new holder in Tommy Townsend, who replaced long-time punter Dustin Colquitt.

Sorensen did more than just return an interception for a touchdown. He delivered a crushing blow that knocked Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay from the game, and he wound up tied for the team lead with nine tackles.

Running back Darrel Williams didn’t get a carry and second-year pro Darwin Thompson was inactive as the Chiefs went with Edwards-Helaire, Bell and veteran DeAndre Washington in the backfield.

The Chiefs escaped without any injuries on Sunday. They hope to have wide receiver Sammy Watkins and right tackle Mitchell Schwartz healthy soon, which would only add more firepower to their offense.

1 — That’s the number of wins Reid needs to match Curly Lambeau (229) for the fifth most in NFL history. Ahead of him are Don Shula (347), George Halas (324), Bill Belichick (306) and Tom Landry (270).

The Chiefs return home to face the winless New York Jets, the bumbling team that waived Bell last week less than two years into his contract when his relationship with coach Adam Gase went sideways.

Bell fits seamlessly in Chiefs’ offense in rout of Broncos

The Barton Community College esports team of freshmen put together a near flawless performance Saturday in capturing the Fall Guys Collegiate Knockout championship to cap off another strong week of competition.

The lone NJCAA team in the IBUYPOWER sponsored invitational field, the Cougars led throughout to take the $3,000 top prize over fellow competitors California State University Northridge, DePaul University, and the University of Mississippi.

Barton finished with 130 points with the other three teams tying for second with 91 points. In the tiebreaking round, DePaul came out on top to take the $1500 second place prize as Mississippi grabbed the third place $500 prize with CSUN finishing on the outside.

Competing for the Cougars were&nbsp;<a href="http://bartoncc.prestosports.com/sports/esports/2020-21/bios/morris_davon_qnsn" target="_blank">Davon Morris</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://bartoncc.prestosports.com/sports/esports/2020-21/bios/hardin_adam_kt3j" target="_blank">Adam Hardin</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://bartoncc.prestosports.com/sports/esports/2020-21/bios/keffer_trent_hlsy" target="_blank">Trent Keffer</a>, and&nbsp;<a href="http://bartoncc.prestosports.com/sports/esports/2020-21/bios/mcfadden_jared_gz6c" target="_blank">Jared McFadden</a>&nbsp;in navigating three gameshows of the Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout as the freshmen laded team competed against the trio of four-year teams with each rostering four players each.

"These guys are amazing," said Head Coach Curtis Rose. "The work they've put in this past week shows the dedication they have. We weren't settling for the 4th place finish from last week."

Getting all four players through each of the four rounds in game one, Barton jumped out on top over Mississippi by nine points.

In game two, the Cougars had a couple of narrow escapes proving pivotal. In round two, Barton needed a late kick to escape the team game Hoarders while in round three a team effort help get Keffer through the qualifying in Rings.

"All week, we worked on consistency, teamwork, and communication," remarked Rose. "All of which were on full display."

Although not claiming a crown win through the first two gameshows, Barton again got all four teammates through the rounds to post another 40 points on the board to lead by thirteen over CSUN.

The Cougars continued their march to the title in round one of the final gameshow, getting all four individuals through the course. Faced with a tricky and sometimes tough Jinx team game in round two, Barton pulled through to build a commanding lead instead of making things a little dicier the rest of the competition. Conquering the third and fourth round to widen the margin, the luck of the draw dealt Barton an unfamiliar team challenge in Royal Fumble but it did little to phase the Cougars on the way to putting an emphatic end to the competition claiming the crown.

With all but Morris participating in the Barton Arena, the crew had no idea of their standing throughout the rounds until the announcement came sparking a boisterous celebration.

"I say it every week, but I know that the teams we've assembled here at Barton can take on anyone," concluded Rose.

In normally scheduled competition this past week, Barton's 20th ranked Rocket League team had another strong performance in defeating Crowder College 4-1. The Cougars lost game one 3-1 but took the next four by a combined 15-3 margin including a 5-0 blanking in the last game of the series.

In Madden matchups, only two of the four matchups were played due to EA Sports' server having technical difficulties. Morris, the nation's top ranked player, received a forfeit win due to the opponent choosing not to take the field.&nbsp;<a href="http://bartoncc.prestosports.com/sports/esports/2020-21/bios/twiggs_anthony_s8wg" target="_blank">Anthony Twiggs</a>&nbsp;took his second straight week of defeats as the 17th ranked player lost both of his games against 14th ranked Hinds Community College.&nbsp;<a href="http://bartoncc.prestosports.com/sports/esports/2020-21/bios/hale_corey_m3ez" target="_blank">Corey Hale</a>&nbsp;(#25) and&nbsp;<a href="http://bartoncc.prestosports.com/sports/esports/2020-21/bios/clare_brayden_ku1r" target="_blank">Brayden Clare</a>&nbsp;(#31) had their matches postponed until Monday, October 26th.

DENVER (AP) — On a freezing afternoon in the snow, Patrick Mahomes barely broke a sweat.

The Kansas City Chiefs routed the Broncos 43-16 for their 10th consecutive win over Denver despite failing to convert a single third down (0-for-8) and getting just 200 yards and at touchdown from their star quarterback.

The Chiefs got a pick-6, a kickoff return for a TD, two rushing TDs, including one from his backup, and three field goals to more than make up for Mahomes’ pedestrian numbers.

“I deal with him every day and all he wants to do is win,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. “It’s crazy. You know how he’s wired. But that’s what’s real every day. He wants to rip your heart out when he’s out there playing. He wants to do well and do all that. But when other people are scoring, he’s jumping up and down, likewise. He just wants to win. That’s the beauty of him.”

“Whenever you feel like you don’t play a great game offensively and you win by 27 it’s a good feeling,” Mahomes said. “A win’s a win.”

“I can play a whole lot better, and I’m going to,” said Broncos QB Drew Lock, who threw for 254 yards with no TDs and two interceptions.

Mahomes completed 15 of 23 passes but said he only worries about results, not statistics.

“A young Patrick would’ve probably tried to force it and thrown a ball and maybe made a bad interception or something like that,” Mahomes said, relaying a conversation he had with teammate Tyrann Mathieu. “Whereas, now, seeing the way the defense was playing and knowing it’s not there, just kind of either taking the sack or not completing the pass and throwing it away” is the way to go.

“You have to learn ways to win in this league,” Mahomes said. “It’s not always going to be 400 passing yards or 200 rushing yards or whatever it is. It’s going to be finding ways to win. I think this team is doing a great job of doing that.”

The Chiefs (6-1) found other ways to dominate Denver (2-4) on a snowy afternoon that began with a temperature of 14 degrees at kickoff, the coldest October game in Broncos history.

Kansas City took a 24-9 halftime lead even though Mahomes completed just one pass in the second quarter and had only 99 yards through the air in the first half.

He didn’t return.Gordon, who missed last week’s win at New England with strep throat a few days after his arrest for driving under the influence, scored a touchdown but turned the ball over twice, including on a failed flea flicker on Denver’s first drive of the second half.Frank Clark recovered the loose ball, leading to a field goal and a 27-9 lead.BELL TOLLSLe’Veon Bell ran six times for 39 yards in his Chiefs debut, and Edwards-Helaire had 46 yards on eight carries.LOCK SCARELock gave Broncos fans a scare on a scramble, falling awkwardly when his left knee brace got caught in the grass.“That was weird. I’ve worn that brace for three years now and never once has that happened to me,” Lock said. “I tried to stand up and the brace was locked, so that’s why I had to fall back down. Because if I was to keep trying to stand up, both ends of that brace were going to cut me.”INJURIESChiefs: none.Broncos: Lindsay (concussion), DL Shelby Harris (wrist), WR Tim Patrick (hamstring), DL Mike Purcell (foot) and DE Derrek Tuszka (hamstring).UP NEXT:Chiefs: Host New York Jets on Sunday.Broncos: Host Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
