What are these black spots on this Kieffer Pear? There's a Sweet Advent next to it that doesn't have it. I have another Kieffer in a different field that doesn't have it either. All planted last year.

Are starting to pop thru in Southwestern WI. In "normal" years one would be looking to spray for weeds about this time. Be careful if doing so.

That's the question my 17 year old daughter jokingly asked me. Daughter: Did you know you were so cool? Me: Yes I did. But, why are you asking me that now? Daughter (laughing): All the Stanley stuff you have. We laughed and talked about the Stanley craze that is going on now. I, like...

I take a lot of pictures of what we do on the property. As we start thinking of what needs to be done in 2024, I thought I'd share the progress of one of our food plots from 2013 thru the 2023 season. This thread will be picture heavy so please tolerate my crappy photography skills. The 2013...

That time of year to be careful of these little guys.

I stopped into a Menards Garden Center yesterday. They had ROD, Ninebark and some Willow in pots. I think they were all priced at $24.99. What are the pros / cons of using these over, say, the cuttings thru Big Rock Trees?

Curious to what this is. Thanks!

I've never been a part of the social media crowd. No accounts of any kind. It's really never been something I've considered until now. Now I'm curious about Instagram but I don't know enough about it. My understanding is it's just for pictures? I always take a bunch of pictures of what we're...

Is this switchgrass? I don't think it is but hoping I'm wrong.

When do you shoot them and how many do you typically shoot in a year? Do you target younger does or older does? Will you shoot a doe with fawns? Reasons why? I realize the answers will vary greatly across the board but just curious to what others do and why they do it.

Looking at recent pics and came across this buck. We don't have any pics of this buck other than these. It wasn't until the second set of pics that I noticed the arrow sticking up in his back. Looking at the angle of the arrow it looks like an almost straight down shot and had to of just miss...

We had the field engineer from local electric co-op out to the property today to see how feasible it was to get electrical to our property. He's not entirely sure they would put the lines in, and if they did, the cost is way more than we want to spend doing it. This wasn't a surprise to us but...

Have been wanting one for a while and finally bought one this weekend. We made burgers for lunch and this boneless chuck roast for dinner. Very good!

I'm having some excavating work done and wanted them to make a small, in the woods, food plot a little bigger. This area was select cut in 2015 and I put in this food plot in 2016. The food plot was never much to look at but we saw a fair amount of deer using it. It was probably more to do with...

If you built a pole barn with living quarters what size is the building? What is the size of the area you finished off?

I don't hunt from a blind a whole lot as I like to be up in a treestand. I will hunt from one a couple times a year, especially if I'm hunting the late season. It's kind of a hassle to get everything set-up but the practice is worth it, especially for my wife, as we all know how much a...

Anyone have a recommendation for an outfitter in Northern WI for a bear hunt? I will be wanting Zone D or Zone A. There will be two of us going and we have 7 and 6 points right now. We're back and forth on applying for a license to hunt next year or just getting another point and going the year...

The preliminary numbers have come out for the 2016 rifle season. 196,785 deer taken which is about 1,272 fewer than last year. Buck harvest was up 5.7% from last year with 30% increase in northern WI. http://dnr.wi.gov/topic/wildlifehabitat/harvest/deerharvest.html...

I've had a couple apple trees die the last couple years and I want to replace them with a some crabapple trees. The property is located in south central WI and these would be mainly for deer. Any suggestions?

I put a camera on this scrape on Oct 16th. Here are a few of the pics I got this last week. I think there are 12 different bucks that visited the scrape from the 17th to the 22nd with a few bucks visiting multiple times during that timeframe. A lot are small bucks but also some decent ones. In...
