Jared had me on to tell the story and strategy of my 2023 buck hunt. Always enjoy chatting with the guys at HP.

 
Update from my garden

 
That video has a somewhat misleading title.

That took me time to figure out what you were referring too hahaha!! That’s funny how it cut it off. I’ll think twice next time I use the word analysis hahaha.
 
I just seeded some rye in SW WI last week during a rain storm, worst case scenario, I'm out $60. Best case scenario, we have enough days left in the 50's for some (any) growth.

Yes and don’t count it as a loss until next spring. You might not thing it did much and come back next spring to a rocking field of rye!! It can happen!!
 
After seeing this deer in person - I had my suspicions on his age. Having it confirmed as a 5.5 year old - just makes it that much sweeter. As you all know getting a deer (regardless of where you hunt) to 5+ is something special. I am so amazed at the body size and antler potential of these 5 year old majestic whitetail!!

I know doe harvest can be a tricky discussion - so I wanted to share a video on how and why we decide to target or not target does on our farm! Hope it helps!

 
IMG_4590.jpegIMG_4453.jpegHere we are - post gun season in Ohio and our plots are still feeding deer. Day in and out we have deer filling their rumen with carbon load! The best part is- this plot will continue to feed deer through next Spring. Carbon load is a fantastic hunting plot. However, it might be even better as a cover crop. It will be the first thing to green up this Spring.

The deer,turkeys and soil will thank you!!
 
One of the reasons no till fails!

 
 
Our mixes don’t only attract deer - because they are highly diverse, they create great bugging habitat as well. The clovers are also consumed by turkeys.

I personally am not a turkey hunter but I love seeing wildlife populations grow and utilize the farm!

It all starts with the soil!

Ever wonder what to do with that wood ash?
