In Iowa, isn't it legal to put minerals out before season? But, it has to be removed "x" number of days before season? Isn't this situation similar to the Joe Franz buck?

Thanks!

Kieffer in the other field.

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.

The narrowest distance is approximately 18 yards. I think the blind to the scrape tree in the plot is around 15 yards. My wife bowhunts, and at that distance, she doesn't have to wonder if they're in range for her.

Approximately 10-12'.

I've screened all my 1/2 acre and larger food plots with switchgrass. I want to cut down on the sight lines as much as possible, especially when all the leaves are on the ground. If I need more height, I plant miscanthus. Below is a 1/2-acre food plot surrounded by woods.

And as Brian said, they become really good during the rut. I got numerous pics of this buck chasing this doe and both stopped to get a drink.

Here's what I did: Get a 110-gallon stock tank from your local Tractor Supply store. Get your wife multiple shovels just in case one fits her hand better than the others. As she digs the hole, have her put the dirt in the SxS so she can patch some spots on the SxS trail. Win / win. Have her...

WI has tried some variation of this in the past. It's never really gotten to far and hopefully it doesn't. This group was proposing $1,000 to the landowner, $1,000 to the hunter, and $300 to the sample testing agency...

One of those items we should have bought sooner than we did. We also have two dogs that are with us all the time. They LOVE riding in the SxS.

I'm broadcasting WR into beans tonight after work on the slight possibility the 47% chance of rain tomorrow actually happens. That said, I'm in the broadcast now group.

First time ever getting, what looks to be a few days-old fawn, in mid-August.
