I have two years (+20 acres) with the 507 and about five years with the Great Plains 706 from the local NRCS office. I think both cover the planting rows well enough with multiple residue conditions and soil types. With that said, I feel like even with added weight, the Saya 507 doesn't have...

His property serves as a transition between bigger blocks of deep timber and fairly large AG fields. In person or when looking at aerial images, you wouldn't know where his property differentiates from the neighbors with the timber. He does have some fairly large bottom ground that blends in...

It seems like a lot of Wisconsin bucks have heavier mass. We pretty much never have bucks with that much mass out to their tips, even as they get to 5-7 year olds.

Maybe I'm a misunderstanding things, but doesn't the last line of that text say that they use snap funds at a lower rate than US citizens? Regarding permanent residents, they typically don't qualify for snap funds unless they have been here for several years. Depending upon the Visa, some...

People can order groceries through doordash. I would imagine the type of people doing this are people with disabilities.

Smaller than you'd think, but it is a unique scenario that is only that way because of the neighbors on the far side and his other borders. His property is around 400 acres, but splits deep timber and very large ag fields. He knows what he is doing. If you're familiar with hunting personalities...

Zero. He just has an absolutely perfect setup where deer do not need to leave his place and cannot be poached from the road. He also plants between 25-30 acres of food plots each year. His really big advantage is that he has great trigger discipline and bucks actually age. He had really bad EHD...

I feel like if you have multiple 150's around that it will only be a matter of time before you have a booner to chase. I haven't read Strategic Harvest System yet, but I believe the statistical distribution of buck classes is discussed in there. In the last 10 years or so, we have typically had...

There is some good discussion happening in that thread. I don't think you have to go back that far to see some pretty rapid changes in just a few years because of technology. Of course there are about a dozen different things that aren't helping bucks reach their potential. The two things that...

For what most habitat people are spraying, the standard teejet flat fan nozzles are totally unnecessary. Hypro and teejet both make air-induction or some kind of drift resistant nozzles that work really well for systemic herbicides.

Ginko biloba.

The earlier comment was using US law to justify these. I would argue we also shouldn't be firing missiles into other countries to do their dirty work for them. There is a reason the US Constitution requires congressional votes to declare war. Using lethal force like this is absolutely an act...

The key being "in the United States". These are in international waters. And even if these extrajudicial killings took place in US waters, the law would still require an actual conviction by a judge and jury, which has never happened. The US has never put someone to death because of drug...

There is some really interesting work from the University of Minnesota on managing buckthorn. They are proposing crowding out seedlings via revegetation and have been doing research on this for several years. There is a pdf in the following link that breaks down recommended plantings based on...

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/us-strike-drug-boat-rcna239564 I'm a little surprised this isn't more talked about. Smuggling drugs is apparently a capital offense now. An administration can declare an organization a terrorist organization and have no oversight to carry out...
