    What has been your experience?

    3 days. That's how long a new buck sticks around (per my experience) once he's taken interest in a doe.

    Conspiracy theorys, where do you stand?

    Was at Walmart a couple of months ago listening to a lady in the checkout ranting about not being able to use Snap for certain things anymore. Something about Redbull, pop, vapes, etc. I don't remember exactly but I was thinking... I make decent money and don't afford that stuff. Plus it was...

    Tricked out turty turty

    Beautiful gun! The sight doesn't match the patina though. I bet it's fun to shoot!

    Persimmon, direct seeding

    If you can find a way to keep rats/mice from getting to them. I've got several that I grew from seed. I ended up buying seedlings from Kansas Forestry Service. 25 trees for $40. It's a bargain compared to the time and effort it takes to grow from seed.

    New Truck?

    My 2005 Tacoma has been wonderful to me! Had a 7.3 Powerstroke for a while, it was ok. Buddies who've bought newer Chevys and Fords have had them fall apart around them much faster than my Toyota.

    Persimmon, direct seeding

    Yes, they need both stratified and scarified.

    Are the glory days of deer hunting coming to a close?

    I've never claimed to hunt mature deer. I go strictly off of antlers, either big enough or not. I am not good at judging age if it's not a deer I know. After 3.5yrs it's a guess for me. Now here's the rub for me. A lot of deer (that I get to know for 4-6 years) never break 150. I've...

    So I sprayed some spots to dig holes

    18 months, and can move with the soil? I'd guess if you relocate the soil when you dig the hole you might be safe. But I'm not gambling with my money and time...

    Permanent herd building insanity?

    How much meat would you get off a doe? I usually get 55-65lbs from the bucks I shoot. I'm guessing your does up north would provide more than what mine do. Supplement it with fish, bear, grouse, and whatever else you can harvest locally and I'd think you could fill a freezer or pantry...

    Permanent herd building insanity?

    Shoot a fawn and do the work to put some meat in the freezer. But, if you've become attached to your does and think you need to leave them alone then go somewhere else to shoot meat. Take a weekend trip or something. Draw blood and have fun, life is to short to stress over things like hunting.

    My first real attempt at a trophy whitetail

    I've burned out many stands in my younger days. Now I'm super careful about wind, touching, how many times I hunt a spot, etc. Can't say I'm a great hunter but my success has gone up a ton, both with how many mature bucks I see in a season and how often I shoot one. And they seem to keep...

    My first real attempt at a trophy whitetail

    Nov 8-12 have been good dates for me, but Nov 25th has been better. Scents are an absolute no to me. Tried them and had only bad experiences with them. I love to use a decoy!!! I've had great luck with the 2d printed bucks like Montana makes. In my experience... the number one factor...

    Picking a new chainsaw?

    "Don't put your feet or your hands where you wouldn't put your dick." Ya, but can you say the opposite? I worked with quite a few old machinists who didn't have a ring finger. Sharp tools that spin fast can do a lot real quickly.

    Picking a new chainsaw?

    ^^^ I own a painfully slow marginal splitter. Takes a lot of beer to get much split!

    Looks wonderful!!! Good job!

    What do you think of this mix?

    Oooooo, I'd forgotten about flax. Thanks for the reminder SD!
