Scott that looks amazing! Yes I was thinking of doing a rows of pine(red pines, spruce or white pines). I know this is a several year project. For reference north is the top of the page. Stand placement are where they have always been and I know they have to be moved around. Let me know...

Ok thanks Mortenson. what would you recommend for width or other plants for concealment? Looking for ideas and how much work I'll have to clear out better.

Good morning all. Been watching a ton of videos on different planting for cover/concealment and I found one on switch grass that struck me funny. It seems you don't plant it until the fall and the following spring it really goes to town. Anyone had any luck planting switch grass? I had an...

We have access to 65 acres. Probably not enough to raise what my wife wants to. And the answer to your second question is Nope. But happy Wife happy life or so the saying goes. I just try to find ways to make it work with my hobbies.

Well here a beefer is anything that can’t be milked. We are working our way up to 20 or 30 head over the next couple of years. Plan on using it in an area that was logged off a couple of years ago. Very sandy soil and want to help build it up. Will definitely be tillering and disking it in. Want...

Should have been beefers. Autocorrect gets me every time.

Looking for a small manure spreader. I let my Wife talk me into get some beepers last year and I have some nice piles of straw and manure building up. Would like to spread on a large opening, almost 3 acres. anyone heard of one out there near west central WI?

Cavey, Im in Jackson County, just outside of Black River Falls. Thanks for everyones advice. Trying to find some helpers and a brush saw (weed whip with a cicular blade) to rent. My one main helper went and joined the Marines so he's gone for the next 3 months for basic and then wherever...

Here are some shots from my sons drone. The big open area was scattered pines, the other opening my father and I cut in 10 yrs ago and the hill top shot is my uncles box blind. The plan for the opening is to be put in as alfalfa and clover for hay bales, logging trails in clover / rye mixtures...

Some picture of the cutting

Some pictures of the "road" going in on the north side of our property.

The plan was to make a trail around our property instead of going through the center of the property. This was roughly 50% accomplished as the longer had to put in some water breaks on the hills and agreed to put in my "road" if it wasn't to far out of his way. Have been clearing tops and...

The tops were piled up but nothing extreme. Some areas are wide open as the tops are only a couple feet tall. Neighbor watched some deer last tuesday walk the edge of his property and once it got past the cut they continued out into the woods on his but not on ours. Trying to make prime food...

1. Previously we had small food plots and the acorns 2. Harvest was to remove as much oak wilt infected trees to stop the spread. Removed junk trees and some pines to allow more light in. 3. I wanted more new growth for the deer and to make it thicker overall. Some places it was so open...

I'm in West Central WI. I have deer on camera but even that number is low.
