Huge grin!!!

Did Throw-n-mow for about 30yrs. Clovers and cereal grains mostly with some experimenting with big seed like beans and pumpkins. Recently started tilling some of my plots. TnM is great with good rains. Tillage is more involved. I'm getting more consistent results with tillage... and I...

I don't know that they ever went into it. They made trails around it but I never saw a deer in it. Sunflowers made it, and rabbits ate the pumpkins. Birds were in it constantly! Deer were in it after I mowed it. I had an exclusion cage. Inside and outside looked no different.

Planted milo heavy with pumpkins and sunflowers in it. Grew tall and THICK. Pumpkins vined to the top and grew hanging fruit. Sunflowers shot to the top and bloomed like they are supposed to. Deer did not go into the mess! Almost never see sunflowers bloom due to browse pressure. Beans...

You certainly have the right spot buckdeer! Absolutely beautiful waterfowl spot!!! I've considered selling some hunts, some fishing, and maybe even converting our house into an AIRBNB a few weekends a yr. Never considered leasing to an outfitter. I do view ducks differently than deer...

From what you guys are saying I don't think I want a pull-behind. I will have rough ground, and I don't want to drive slow to get to a remote spot. This points to a front or rear mount ATV spreader, with the knowledge that I won't use it for fert. I could see a front unit being nice to keep...

I want to spread wheat, corn, beans, and fert. Don't need it to hold more than 50lbs but I do want easy. I've been using a yard type John Deere spreader for spreading big seed but it tips very easy and doesn't have great metering. Pull it with my zeroturn mower.

I'm thinking I need a spreader. I have a little pull behind but it tips to easily. 1. Which is bettter in your experience; atv rack mount, receiver mount, or large pull behind? 2. Brands to avoid? 3. Brands that are golden?

I'm liking this water hole. Everything is attracted to it.

No clue on age. If he had been wider I'd probably flung an arrow at him!

Better pics. 9 with a kicker on his left. Decent mass and tine length.

Those are just harmless yard deer Foggy, they aren't going to stunt anything. Thanks about the pics. I think I could take some phenomenal photos if I had something better than a phone.

Went ahead and mowed my milo down a few days ago. Deer were using it tonight. Doesn't necessarily mean much, they were in my wheat and clover too.

I've done some research on keeping tanks from freezing, but this is the first I've heard the manure angle!

11hrs after digging a hole and filling the tank there's use. It's 21 degrees right now, supposed to get in the teens tonight. Curious if it will stay open or freeze.
