    Rage Deflections

    What do you mean expandables are for people that don't paper tune their bow? I don't get what you mean.

    Smoking clothes?

    The deer in my profile picture is one I used this on. I stood in the smoke also to cover my human scent. It's a smell deer are used to smelling. People can smell a fire from a ways away so think of how far a deer can smell it and it's never an alarming smell. I think it works. Dogs, Coyotes and...

    Rage Deflections

    My cousin gives me a lot of crap about using the Rage. I've never had one issue with them. Well after seeing his tiny blood trail that was hard to find and follow and having to track the deer 100 yards with a perfect shot (we found it) using his Montec's I will continue to use the Rage. I think...

    MDC Nursery Now Taking Orders

    I would imagine you should have luck with hazelnuts. I've never tried planting them but it seems wherever a chipmunk, bear or deer takes a crap a hazelnut shrub pops up. Great shrub to have so I hope they take hold for you. They provide a lot of cover and food in our woods. Spread pretty quick...

    lets see some daytime bucks

    Think I need to do the same. I hate hunting in the wind but I'm normally on food so I'll try the woods. Bill is right though as far as noise and movement.

    lets see some daytime bucks

    Loving the bucks! Good to see the daytime activity picking up. Not trying to hijack here just a quick question. I've always had bad luck during high winds but I hear more and more people saying they see a lot of deer during windy days. Normally when I see deer on windy days they're so jumpy...

    MDC Nursery Now Taking Orders

    I had a few make it through that winter, probably because they were under 4' of snow but I believe they're all dead now. I'll need to look for them next weekend and take some pictures.

    MDC Nursery Now Taking Orders

    I'll be putting in another order with them. I tried Loblolly X Pitch Pines from them. They grew but the bad winter we had a couple years ago did them in. It was a test anyway. It was pretty far north for that tree but I'll be getting some for where I live. Inexpensive too.

    tincture

    Thanks bueller! Been waiting for a good reason to start drinking tonight. I actually started a while ago but at least I now have a reason! Now I don't feel like a lush drinking alone on a Wednesday night. Michelob Golden Light prevents bugs too......right?

    Planting my Rd Screen

    I sprayed it 2 times this summer and the green plants that are growing are low laying plants that won't compete for sun but you have a point with root growth. I've used old beer and pop (soda for you non Minnesotans) cases in the past for my apple trees. My biggest fear is bucks rubbing them...

    Deer Movement

    Tonight was a bust, not a single deer. Sat in oaks between my green plot and the 10 acres of standing beans. Heard a lone timber wolf howl early at about 5:00 to the East. Coyotes started up to the west as I was getting down. Normally if wolves moved in, yotes moved the hell out. Past 3 years...

    Deer Movement

    I'm heading north in a little bit and going to hunt for a couple days. I will not be able to check my cameras tonight before I hit the stand this evening and it would be nice to know what people have been seeing. Thought we should start a thread about deer movement with the rutting activity...

    Harvest time

    When you say inoculating what do you mean? I know what it means with seeds like acorn but with a cut log I guess I do not understand. Jim when do you plan on putting the spores in and are you doing the pile them on the south side of the garage and cover them with plastic idea so they do not...

    Shot a Hog

    That is one animal I would have a very hard time eating along with rat, mice and bat. You are right though, the fence wasn't really high.

    Harvest time

    This is awesome. Thank you for sharing. I'm very interested in this and have a couple questions for you. You had mentioned that you needed more oak logs. Is this because you want to grow more mushrooms or can you only grow one season on a log? Can you use a oak log that has been dead for a few...

    Shot a Hog

    Buddy called and said they had a hog with a hernia so it would not bring much at the market. So he said if you want it come get it. Over a 300 lb hog for $125 is a deal I could not pass up. Had a crash coarse in butchering a hog by myself but it was very similar to a Bear. It's amazing that...
