Its been raining here the last couple of days { blessedly since I've just finished planting } so being housebound here is a video of my approach to this years summer planting along with some additional habitat work.

Here's a short video from a helicopter hog hunt we did recently. Probably something a little different for you northerners.

This is why we control burn. Before and after. Salad garden sprouting back after the fire. Lots of devils walking stick that was 7' tall not sprouting from ground heavily grazed.

Here is a pic of an experiment I'm trying this year planting joint vetch directly into standing wheat and crimson clover both going to seed. The idea is the vetch and crimson together create nearly year round forage. Question is if the tiny vetch seeds will get enough seed soil contact? Will...

Planting starts today! Yipeee! Planting about 50 acres of summer annuals plus 20 acres of joint vetch and an 11 acre sunflower field. Big fun. The summer annual mix: 30 lbs cow peas 10 lbs lab lab 10 lbs mung beans 10 lbs sunflower 10 lbs buck wheat 3 lbs okra 2 lbs sunn hemp Notice no...

Great thread just catching up. Was just up towards your neighborhood hunting turkeys on Ashbrook Island on the ark. Ms. La border. Lots of gobbling but the birds were smarter than me. Your place is beautiful! ( Deer hammer my verbena!)

If the question is.." Are the glory days of hunting coming to an end " Ask this little buddy what he thinks. Louisiana---Sportsmans Paradise!

My orchards look same. Figs especially got hammered. same on fields . stunningly beautiful with crimson but spring green up in full bloom. Chance of rain starting tomorrow. Be very timely.

We did a control burn on about 50 acres yesterday. Went very well and with rain in next weeks forecast should turn lush green quickly.

They will definitely find it assuming the grass is such they can move thru it. Any small seed will work including sunflowers which would also help doves. Of course gotta be careful as dove season approaches for baiting laws etc.

BTW a quail biologist taught me that trick . Helps even out the giant swings in quail populations year to year.

Your gonna love my answer.... Put a seed spreader on the back of a sxs and drive down your roads and area around field your discussing broadcasting milo. This will help them overwinter into springing by broadcasting over a long distance keep them protected from predators. This is the best...

Short video showing various nutrition strategies with food plots. First time using drone. Fun but I still need practice.

We are having a little better luck down here. Course, I think the glory days of hunting are ...now!
