Last year, after investing hundreds of hours of labor and thousands of dollars of my own money in our family farm, I elected to shoot ZERO deer. Limiting the harvest has been my #1 objective for 3 years. I can tell you that I am very unpopular for making that decision and there are enough people...

I can relate to that article. Deer numbers way down, a bow hunter in every tree in November, rifles in shotgun, EHD, the good ole days seem to be in the rear view mirror…& sadly it doesn’t seem that long ago seeing multiple gross B&Cs in a single year was VERY common..,

Not surprising at all given the county it happened in.

My (late) father hated deer with a BURNING passion & did everything possible to eliminate them and keep them off the farm. We were pretty opposite to be honest. I would give up managing the farm to have a single day with him again. Don’t sweat the small things, someday all you will have is memories…

Yep, I don’t get the huge fuss over a few folks using SMLs when the orange armies are surrounding timbers with ARs…seems like apples and oranges regarding impact…

My first thought is 400 Legend. I like lever guns and see the potential of the 360 Buckhammer over the 350 Legend. My daughter’s first deer & with a 350 Legend AR and she even built the handloads. No blood, zero, perfect shot & honestly thought she lost it for about 20 very anxious minutes.

My experience too & what I don’t like.

That is crazy!

Congrats to your father! Nice buck.

Awesome buck, congrats!

Congrats!

Forestry mulcher…& buck had a very small core area he never strayed far from…

Sweet buck, congrats!

Nice buck, congratulations!

The rye I lightly disced in a couple weeks looks great. The rye I broadcast a week ago looks like yours. The seed is just sitting on top of the soil. I tried to disc it in at the time but the ground was gummy and my disc is too light evidently. I lightly rototilled in those areas yesterday &...

Thanks, that was the information I was looking for.

I don’t own a drill or have any herbicides on hand for switch. If I buy RC Big Rock, what is the best scenario for getting some up next year & what if any prep should I be doing now for next year? If this is already covered in the switchgrass thread I can look over there. I do have round up, a...

Congrats!
