Ok, this overgrown section is my property, right next to an alfalfa field. Here’s my debate: 1. Spray, fertilizer/lime, till?, then no-till beans and corn. I need some type of cover because this is wide open in eyesight of 6 houses. Or 2. Switch grass The area is pretty small. About 40’...

Hey y’all. Been away a long time. I see the site is doing good. Neglected my home food plots, habitat, and fruit trees. Time to get back to it. I need help determining which limbs to trim up on these two trees, and when to do it. I probly missed the time to do it over the winter lol. Thanks...

Hey y’all. I have only performed hinge cutting in late winter/early spring. If I did some here in the fall, would the “survival rate” be the same or less? Any info from members who have done it in the fall? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve been searching for about 5 years now for a “no-till-drill” in my price range - “almost free”. As my abilities in habitat improvement have increased over the past 5 years or so (meaning I’m closing in on more and more expensive wants(needs) lol) I knew I needed to take a step this year as I...

Anyone have a good design for blind windows? I’m going to be building a “lightweight” and “quick” 8’x8’ blind and need a simple window design. I’m not doing aluminum crank out windows or trailer house storm windows like my last two blinds again lol. I’ve designed plexiglass windows before but...

Ok, I’ve lived at my location for 6 years. The neighbors kiddie corner to me own an 80 acre parcel with 29 acres of tillable property. The past two seasons of rifle up here in Wisconsin, they have shot the biggest bucks we have on camera. Two years ago it was a 170+ typical 10. Last year it was...

I am overrun with coyotes on one of my properties. How do I put a system in place for controlling them? I have zero experience trapping or hunting them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, I have cut somewhere between 10-20 thousand trees now for hinge cutting between my properties, friends and family; with two gas powered chainsaws. I have a Stihl farm boss that runs awesome but is heavy. I also have a Husqvarna 204 (smallest residential one they make model number may be...

Hey everyone, it’s been a long time since I’ve been on here. I am going through the divorce process right now, since November of 17. I finally realized I was in a relationship with a very toxic person who only cared about herself and not the family. So, I ended it. Feels good to be excited about...

Alright, it’s not even rifle season and my foodplots are demolished. I have clover, rye, oats and I through in beans back in July/August. They do not seem to be much of a draw after it snows a few inches. I still get deer on them, just not as many as prior to snow. Therefore, my plan for next...

Where are you getting your mature buck pictures now? I decided to continue on with the thread I started about mature buck pictures from September 1 - October 20th. I am now getting mature buck pictures over food plots. As the does begin to enter estrous the bucks on camera have grown from...

Anyone seeing any aggressive rub lines/areas yet? I’m talking three or more rubs visible from one location to qualify. I think we are a few weeks out as of up here in Northern Wisconsin, but I’m curious what others see. Please post pictures and maybe we can establish a timeline in certain parts...

Well, I am finally getting around to building two more shacks for this year. Got a start on them this weekend. I am using 2" thick by 24" tall insulated garage door panels for the exterior. We got large oak pallets from my wife's work for free. They have oak 4x4s for lower supports and oak...

Thinking outside the box here. As this year was my process for food plots: 0. Brush mow 1. Spray 2. Disc 3. Disc again 4. Cultipack 5. Spread seed 6. Disc lightly 7. Cultipack 8. Spread clover or brassicas 9. Cultipack again I bet I have a solid dang week into just planting plots...

For those who get mature buck pictures between Sept 1 and October 20th or so, where do you get them on your properties (food, funnel, bedding?) and how often? I've been getting mature buck pictures in August the past few years over food plots. Then the first week of September they disappear...

Ok, I'm gonna take the plunge and lime some of my foodplots. I haven't done much of it yet in my life. Will I damage my crop by liming and if so, how? I know I have to run it over to spread the lime with my drop spreader, but I'm not worried to much about that. I will be buying bagged Fine...

Well, I've just about worn out the over the bag shoulder spreader I've had for five years. It's done thousands of pounds through it. I'm seriously considering the king kutter poly 3 point spreader. I mostly spread rye, oats, and soybeans. Then would hand spread the clover. I would love to...

Ok, the following pictures are taken from the car because I was pressed for time. They detail the massive amount of growth still on the living trees (the ones that survived the hinge) I hinge cut for the barricade around my 30 acre property, as well as the new growth and sunlight let in. Note...

I mowed this clover a few weeks ago now. When should I mow it again? Here are some pictures: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys. I need to run a new plan past you. I am purchasing some new property and close Friday. The new property has a half mile of pipeline on it which I feel will make an excellent food plot. It runs east and west. My current plan is to spread the seed spray waited day and then mow. I can...
