I'm at the end of day four turkey hunting, and I can't for the life of me pull in a tom. My place has a lot of crp, but I recently added 4 different plots totaling 5 acres of clover. Thinking I'd be able to pull them from my neighbors farm fields. Nope the birds are still avoiding my place. When...

I had a weird issue where I couldn't reply or post it said insufficient permissions. I had to log out and then back in, and then verify my account. Just posting in case anyone else has this problem.

I will be winterizing my secondary home, and and will be crawling under the crawlspace to turn the water main off. Looking at my home inspection report I see my water main shut off has a hose attached to it. I'm assuming this is for draining purposes,but I'm not sure. I thought most drains had...

My fall food plots were a bust this year due to lack of rain. I'm trying to decide what to do next year. Should I attempt to plant 5 acres of clover by Frost seeding this winter? Then just hopefully mow it as needed if it gets established? I feel that might be easier and less risky then try to...

Went out fishing in Portland Maine and had a blast catching some stripers. Caught a 39 incher.

After three years of owning the property decided to try out some fishing. I didn't know what to expect. About 30 minutes in wasn't catching and got side tracked by a cotton mouth on the waters edge. Kinda started to think it's a snake and turtle pond. I saw some splashes and decided to cast...

The coyotes have recently been blowing up my trail cameras. I got a pic of this coyote with a white tip tail and paws. Iam pretty sure I saw this guy in November hunting . Anyone else seen them with a white tip tail?

Just trying to get real life experiences / expectations with them? I am about to put one over looking a valley food plot, hoping it will stop the swirling winds and thermals. I am sure I'll find out this year if they work. Just trying to set my expectations and if I am setting myself up for...

So I fell 6 to 8 feet off an a frame ladder 9 days ago. (trying to figure where to put box blinds in fields for this spring). I'm recovering and should hopefully get most my hand mobility back. Just wondering if anyone has some good injury stories working on their property. 1. ladders aren't...

Hi All, I am about to pull the trigger on buying out 5 acres of CRP to plant into food plots. I hired a habitat consultant last year and he outlined recommended spots In lavendar. The red areas were going to be bull dozed and planted into food plots, but I am going to leave them as they provide...

I walk by this apple tree every day. It appears to be a grafted dual apple tree. Iam thinking about taking some apples and trying to grow them from seed. If these grow from seed will there drop time be similar or is it a complete crapshoot?

I tried to make my cabin as bomb proof as possible, but I think I have an unwanted pest. Also were I saw the sign a loft is above it. I am not seeing any indicating of wood damage or a hole I am thinking termites or carpenter ants. I am not seeing any giant ants running around. The cabin is...

Anyone know what this is. It’s fairly common see it all over, but not sure what it is.

Got my first yote turkey hunting. I’ve past them before in the past because I wasn’t sure a turkey load would drop them.I always seem to have close encounters with them and when it’s rainy.

Hi all, Looking for some opinions… I paid a habitat management company to come out and perform TSI( specifically for wildlife) on eight acres . They charged me 2600 dollars. A crew of 6 showed up for one day, and performed the work. I just walk the 8 acres and Iam underwhelmed with the work...

Has anyone ever bought wrp eligible land and then converted it? Do you really get 85% of the value of the land or how is the value determined? It sounds to good to be true to only needing to invest like 20 to 30 % then converting it and then having a strictly only hunting property.

Hey guys, I was hoping to get some input on this property from an aerial perspective. Its got about 45 tillable. (91 acres total) Is that big ag field going to hurt the property from a hunting perspective and how do you think it rates for access? The north east corner has a a house. The land...

Just curious peoples experience with land auctions? I have a land auction coming up in my county with a property that's a 50/50 tillable / timber setup, and I am thinking about trying to bid on it. However a auctions to seems to put all the risk on the buyer so I am somewhat hesitant on...

I am waiting on my cultipacker to be deilvered and won't have it for at least 5 to 6 weeks. That being said I was thinking about going down to my property to mow, then spray ( two days later) while broading casting some sort of seed. I was thinking Buckwheat or Clover. The planting will be...
