Thanks dbltree, it is an established plot, I was leaning towards the fact that the deer ate the clover because there were no wilted/dead plants on the ground. I will update if/when the rains com back.

6-7 weeks ago was the last time that I checked my 1 acre clover plot, at that time it was thick, full and I thought that I would need to get out and clip it down before hunting season came around. I went out this week for the first time since then and my plot is gone. Here in NW Ohio we have not...

How long will inoculant last if it has been kept in the frig?

I am in NW Ohio, looking for some advice or if anyone has had any luck getting permission from a company to hunt on their land. I am trying to get permission to hunt a section of woods, but the whole woods is owned by a company. I am thinking that they will say no for liability reasons and the...

I have nothing against people who shoot at running deer, who am I to tell someone how to hunt. It just seems though that more bad things happen when hunters don't take their time and assess the situation properly. Here in Ohio where I live a lot of people do deer drives in groups, I am waiting...

There is nothing tough about firing a rifle in the direction of someone in a tree stand. In situations like this I recall a forest gump saying, "stupid is as stupid does". Hope the law is not easy on this guy, these are the type of people who give gun owners a bad name.

Wow what a story! Never thought I would be this jealous of a 16 yr old kid, but I am green with envy! He has five bucks of a lifetime and he is only 16. What a hunter.

Well I kind or tried the grid search but I was the only one, seems that everyone had things going on this weekend and couldn't get any help. I was a huge area for one guy to try and cover, obviously I didn't get the job done on my own.

Yesterday morning started out as one the great hunting morning of my life. Got to the field late, sat down to get ready, 10 min later big buck broadside, pull the trigger and deer down! That's where it started to go down the crapper! The buck was down for about thirty seconds, got up and tried...

I wish my clover looked like the first pictures, most has not germinated. Will it do so in the spring? Or should I look into frost seeding some?

Planted oats with white clover earlier this fall, the oats have come up just fine, not too thick but ok for me. The clover has not come up that much at all, where there is some it is still very small. My question, will that clover come up in the spring if it has not already started? Or should i...

So what I am hearing is that the land owner may be able to go back and have is contract modified so that he may be able plant a little bit more? Does this cost him any money or just the time to do it? I really can't ask him to do things if it will cost him more money just do I can try and...

I currently do not own any land, the property on which I hunt is mostly woods and crp, about 80 acres total. Also I am located in Ohio not Iowa. The land owner says that he only has the right to put a 1 acre food plot within the crp. That seemed pretty small to me, I would like to be able to a...

looking at planting some oats and clover in the bare spots of my white clover plot, what would be the best time to plant this? and should i put fert down along with the seed?

frost seeded white clover this spring, do have some thin/bare spots in the 1 acre plot, would it be good to plant something in these bare spots that will help out this fall, if so what and when should I plant it, I was thinking of oats or something like that

Frost seeded first white clover earlier this spring. Just went to check on it and there are a lot of weeds in the one acre plot. What would be good to spray on the weeds? When would be a good time? I do not have a pull behind sprayer, would a 4 gal. back pack sprayer work ok? I figured I will...

I seeded my clover last week, I was wondering when I should go back to check on the progress? How many weeks does it take to germinate?

I have read on hear that clover needs to be cut down, at what height do you cut it to? 8" high, 10" high, or more like really long grass? could I use a push lawn mower at highest setting? Thanks

Just got back from frost seeding about an acre of land. This is my first food plot, the acre had beans on it last year and the owner of the land did not harvest the beans just let the deer eat them. I did not rake or anything, I think that the seed will make good contact with soil, or should I...
