    Do you think deer would use a scratching brush like cows and horses?

    Not exactly the same thing, but there's a feeder made with posts like that to treat ticks on deer. https://crdaniels.com/dandux-outdoors And, some study results here: https://www.cdc.gov/climate-health/media/pdfs/Effectiveness4PosterDevices_508.pdf

    That's one of those things you use the saying, "if I only had a nickel for each time I've been stung". I don't know if there was ever a summer day of my youth that I didn't have an ant bite somewhere on me. That and redbugs.

    Missouri Dept Conservation is looking for feedback on some potential non-resident deer hunting regulations changes

    I don't see Louisiana ripping out swamps and pine plantations to start growing row crops. Sure, there is a little bit of Louisiana that is soybeans/corn, but it's not much, and what is wooded there was snatched up by people for hunting decades ago. It's a fortune to get in there. Maybe it...

    Maybe Louisiana should put a draw on the 200k non-resident fishing licenses bought each year. Tell those states to fix their own fishing 🤣.

    And, for some states, that's just not a possibility. Midwest state deer hunters have a different playground than most of the country when it comes to whitetails.

    Missouri Dept Conservation is looking for feedback on some potential non-resident deer hunting regulations changes

    This was in Kentucky. But, he didn't go into any more detail. He did say he has properties in different states and knows he pays considerably more than residents. If I was in MO, I would contact every legislator I could. There has to be a way to make them see how much nonresident landowners...

    I spoke to a legislator yesterday who is really for reciprocal licensing. I kind of like the idea.

    Being a good steward of natural resources on land you own should give you some type of preferred access to those resources you're protecting /managing. ...no matter where you reside.

    Missouri Dept Conservation is looking for feedback on some potential non-resident deer hunting regulations changes

    A few times now since I've been hunting there. Now, they just voted in an automatic "inflationary" biennial adjustment. Resident landowners continue to hunt on their own land free. Missouri and Kentucky were my two choices when I was looking to buy. It could have easily gone one way or the other.

    Missouri Dept Conservation is looking for feedback on some potential non-resident deer hunting regulations changes

    They keep raising their fees on non-resident landowners, and I'll hunt without a license. I'm not owning and keeping land free from development and managed for wildlife only for them to turn around and charge me and my family excessive fees. We'll hunt it without paying the fees or sell it in...

    Varies greatly around my land in Kentucky. Between $3-8k an acre right now. I was offered over 8k cash for a portion of mine that's tillable.

    Are the glory days of deer hunting coming to a close?

    I've been listening to some of the Michigan DNR commission meeting. I hope they get the 1 buck limit that many seem to want. But, it's like listening to people hunting a completely different animal. I can't imagine seeing the numbers of deer they're talking about. It's like most are talking...

    Are the glory days of deer hunting coming to a close?

    As I understood it, the problem with buckthorn was that it was very poor from a nutritional standpoint. I think it acts as a laxative that just pushes itself right through animals and is part of the reason for it spreading so rapidly. I've never dealt with it, but I've dealt with other invasive...

    When we had our catfish pond, we used to keep a trotline in it or jugs. Sometimes, we'd just use shiny hooks left out there. We'd have a catfish every day or so. It was one of my chores everyday, to go check the lines, bring in the fish and skin and freeze.

    Putting a heavy log behind a disc

    After you have it disced good, set the disc angle bar straight. Just run it right over the top to crack the clods open. Soil moisture and type can make a difference too. I've had to make a few passes on heavier clay soils.

    Putting a heavy log behind a disc

    Is it because of big clods? If so, I've just made a couple more passes with the discs raised to break them up. One of the best things I've ever used to smooth out before planting was one of those rotary arena type harrow drags. Those things really smooth it out. Edit: I've done the log behind...
