    Collards - anyone plant them for deer?

    I tossed a seed mix into my farm yard in North MO 2 years ago and they were part of the mix. They have come back each spring and also come back after mowing. Seems ideal if a guy can manage weeds/grass via mowing and have a perenial stand. I don't see any browsing on them but they are only 10...

    So You Wanna Buy A Big Buck Property ... How Do You Evaluate?

    Maybe this helps explains how Don Higgins's farm holds so many bucks of older age class on it. He had 4 good four years olds on it in 2024. They shot a management one....168", lol! There were also older ones. How does an island of cover hold that many older age bucks. I can't believe that...

    Stock Market is the bottom in?

    From big to bigger if it was anything like when we owned in Polk County. We sold in 2008 and were paying over $1000/yr for 80 acres with about 50 of it swamp. Conversely, we are paying $160/yr for 100 acres in MO that generates almost $6,000/yr in income.

    Agreed, two more years and he'll be impressive. Too bad Team Louisiana will take him down next season.

    Stock Market is the bottom in?

    Yes, we had a contractor look at it before the insurance guy. He's from a decent size company but it's possible he dinged it up. My wife and I talked about being a possibity. We were home when he looked, but I wasn't on the roof with him. It's a 2006 roof so it's showing some wear anyway...

    Stock Market is the bottom in?

    What is your experience with Accuity? Our hail damaged roof got rejected. The claims guy was inspecting our roof while the neighbor's roof was being replaced 15 ft away from him. We requested a 3rd party engineer inspection, who said our roof had "man made damage". I knew I shouldn't have...

    MDC stoops to a new low, kill 12 bucks a year.

    We are just outside a North Mo hot zone where at least two landowners allowed sharpshooters. There weren't any additional positives found so the killing ended in 2021 I believe, which is the year we bought. A buddy walked one of the farms after sharp shooter season and found a couple with...

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

    Are most of the guys from the south by chance? Maybe I'm old but a sense of accomplishment is an important part of hunting for me. Waiting for a random doe to jump a fence with a buck behind it just doesn't do it!

    How You Get To Your Deer Stand

    Nice buck! It sounds like it worked in that instance. Are the deer conditioned to motorized vehicles on your property? Some of us aren't on our farms enough to condition them so access via motorized vehicle is a no. You're entitled to your opinion on trail cams but I certainly don't...
