French Onion soup in the kitchen, while the smoker did magic on a pork butt. Maybe the best sandwich I've ever made.

You might ask your farmer about herbicides and any residuals that he's been using. And, I'd expect a rash of weeds like marestail to pop up if you let the wheat go. With that said a nice weedy field can make wonderful deer and bird habitat.

Hulled or unhulled?

Never heard that the red meat is where heavy metals and pesticides is accumulated. Is there testing or research that show that? I'm curious now. I cut all the red meat out of big flatheads and catfish. Do a chutch fish-fry every yr and even the picky eaters think it's all crappie. It...

Eh, not that interesting.

I've watched yotes eat pumpkins. This yr I had rabbits eating them inside the milo plot where the deer weren't going.

I like mellons.... in fact I LOVE MELLONS!!! The wife might say I like them an unhealthy amount, or at least an annoying amount. For deer I plant pumpkins.

Who do you buy you Aeschynomene and Alyce from?

Lol, probably would! When I say "sell a couple of hunts" I'm referring to on my own stuff, not leasing to an outfitter.

Been thinking of your question of "how much?". I don't have an amount for cash but I'd consider time. If I could sell a couple of hunts a yr and partially retire early it would be worth considering for me. I would view it as a part time job and to be honest if I could help someone get the...

Sparse or thick milo? I kind of think collards would be difficult to grow in a thick milo plot. Pumpkins will vine to the top and hang fruit. Pumpkin seed varies in size greatly. If you're worried about drilling it you might look at buying a small seed variety over fruiting characteristics.

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?
