this guy is really giving me a confidence boost for this season...now if only i can get the time to hunt when the weather actually cooperates! he showed up at the two different mock scrape set ups on the same plot on the same day. one scrape in the AM and the other scrape in the PM...both in...

The link below is for the second video in a series by The Management Advantage. So far it's been two short videos that are basically interviews with Lee Lakosky. My disclaimer....I'm not a fan of L&T's media production/product pimping empire...but I also don't hate on anyone turning their...

A good friend of mine purchased a little chunk of land about a year and half ago....he asked me to take the lead on improving habitat for deer hunting and wildlife in general. We spent the first fall, just hunting and observing without having done any improvements. We just wanted to get a feel...

A friend of mine pulled into my driveway last night with a bruiser of an NE PA buck in the bed of his truck! This buck came in bumping a doe. 181lbs dressed weight. Mainframe 8, with lots of character. Sent from 25 ft up a tree

My mock scrapes on the edges of the plot are starting to get abused by some bucks. my property doesnt hold bucks. I get sporadic spring/summer pics. I have several doe groups that frequent my property all year, so once the boys start focusing on the ladies i get lots of buck traffic. most...

got this odd ball heavy 7 pt. he certainly looks mature to me even for this time of year he has lots of the telltale signs. Not sure i had pics of him last year or not....this area has a lot of no brow/one brow bucks every year. He really isnt packing much for headgear...but i will take a...

Here are some update pics of my no tilled, surface broadcast, strip plots. The entire plot is 1/3 acre, and is basically an exaggerated "L" shape with the short leg of the L being more or less an 8000 sq ft rectangle, and the long leg a 6000 sq ft narrow and long, but irregular shape. this pic...

I heard a rumor on the inter webs that there may be some additional content or a new/bigger show coming out?

I posted some pics of this guy about 2.5 weeks ago. He came back again....and has gained some decent velvet in the mean time.

This weekend i mowed my medium red clover, crimson clover and rye strips in preparation for spraying them in about a week. I gave myself a little extra time in case i need to spray again. I'm planning on seeding PTT/DER/GHFR sometime between July 10th and 15th. I was amazed at the amount of...

this guy is looking pretty good for mid-june this guy also some interesting things going on around the burrs/brows Nice up and comer thankfully this guy did not mess with the camera....looks to be a pretty good sized bruin.

about 2 weeks ago i went up to check on my clover/oats planting and found 3 out of 4 fawn legs in the plot 2 were within 3 feet of each other and the third was about 20 yds away. trail cams were too far away to get a 100% id on the predator, but i usually have a yote or two come thru during...

i tagged this on to the end of gunther's post about more or less the same topic....but i have a few other questions and figured i'd get a separate thread going. i'm in a similar boat to gunther in terms of what to do with the rye. I am strip plotting a basic but modified LC cereal/legume mix...

this is all from the same plot. 3 separate areas. 2 strips rotating between LC brassica and LC rye mix. 3rd area is an expansion area to this same plot.

I went up to the sidehill and pulled samples for soil tests. I pulled samples from the spent brassica strips that will get seeded to crimson clover around first week of may and i pulled samples from the rye/clover strips that will get seeded to brassicas this summer. I also pulled samples from...

How much should a 25lb bag of a mix of the following cost if you were putting it together yourself as opposed to buying it as a mix in a pretty bag? Alice White Clover Freedom MR Red Clover Forage Feast Chicory Regal Graze Ladino Clover The seed tag calls out that 55.4% is pure seed and 43.77%...

I will become an archery ninja like this guy.

I haven't been able to track down an online seed source for Balansa Clover that sells by the pound. Welters has a 50lb bag listed. Any chance that if i give them a call they may actually sell by the pound? 50lbs is a ridiculous overkill for my needs. I am assuming i could keep it and get...

Found some decent cover crop info. This link is for the red clover as a cover crop summary. Most of the info on these pages is geared more towards agronomy but still has some good points to consider for us plotters...

Today I will get to take my first official shed hunt of the season! I have done a little walking already but that was mainly scouting the perimeter of the 15-20 acres of standing corn on the neighbors. The deer sign is thick in and around this field. I also have two other fields of standing...
