I expect to see nothing. I don’t hunt fields or food plots unless my son is with me, though. And I feel like there are too many deer for the amount of quality habitat I currently have. Couple things: 1. I think harvest #s should be set based on habitat observations, not sightings. A place I...

The whole point of EAB is to ensure doe harvest keeps up with buck harvest or outpaces it. It sounds like you and the biologists or commissioners that implemented the policy in your region have a fundamentally different understanding of the state of your herd. The program has merit in the...

My entrance has double gates with a chain and a combo lock. It’s impossible for me to be silent with the chain, even if I remove it and lay it on the ground. When I’m hunting, I feel like everything for 2 miles can hear the chain clinking. What are the quieter options?

You usually need a high capacity pump to run those boomless nozzle according to their specs. Droplet size is way too coarse and coverage is way too inconsistent unless you’re pushing 40psi or more, and the typical 2gpm pumps won’t come close. You can partially overcome this by increasing your...

Yep. The empty yellow corn bags littering the roadsides and medians on Hwy 61 north of Baton Rouge is staggering. What better metric is there anymore?

I can’t tell if you’re angry that he’s hunting on a small property or that he’s trespassing. One is objectively a legal issue, the other is not. And leave cheap beer drinkers out of this! :)

If he’s breaking the law, make sure he knows it. If not, you have no reason to be angry. Frustrated? Yes. But at the circumstances, not the neighbor. I do have a problem with larger landowners begrudging smaller landowners from hunting. If your “ownership” of the local deer herd is a...

This is a topic I’ve been interested in. If you ask an insurance professional about it, they defer to accountants. If you ask accountants, they tell you to talk to an attorney. Ask an attorney and they break out the cash register. I do know that you don’t have to have an LlC to get any special...

Midway has the Muddy Safe Lines for half price, plus a 20% promo code 20MUSA. Hope some of you may be able to take advantage. I got 6 sets delivered for $97ish. Even if you just use them as 30’ climbing rope, that’s a good deal.

Commuting into the Red Stick, I noticed a definite increase in deer movement early this week.

I’m not a seasoned sawyer, just somebody who sometimes splurges on things with motors. My 261 is in a separate universe than my dad’s 250.

Quoting the Bible and then making digs about Christians?

Where do you do research to even hear about these companies?

Outstanding as always! Agree that dozers are probably best rented/hired. But your operator has good taste. The Komatsu D37 is the best there is working in the woods! And if I ever hire a motor grader, I will have ARRIVED! I’m a few clicks east of you trying to make due with a Kubota and an...

I’ve never understood how that cage on the Tar River is effective at closing/covering the seed.

Lot of chatter about PATH lately.

I’m in the petrochemical business and this week was especially tough. I’m starting to turn pretty pessimistic. My wife is in healthcare and has acquaintances across a pretty wide range. Getting vibes that corporate sentiment is beginning to sour. Professionals in S LA are starting to feel the...

Bruh, custom builders in S LA keep doing just as much work as they want to do. Come on down.

I swear I remember dgallow talking about broom sedge being an awesome organic matter builder. Anybody remember that? If I were you I’d be content if the broom sedge were the only grasses there. And I wouldn’t worry if they were pretty dominant. Grasses are for structure and not much more...

Ammo is not bad advice. It’s not likely to get cheaper.
