Great deer. Congrats.

Marty Sent you a PM. Thank you for that extremely generous donation. It will be greatly appreciated.

That’s interesting. I will start paying attention to that as well. I was little disappointed last night I watched 3 deer come out in front of cam at separate times last night and fed in front of the camera. Should have had multiple pics but only received 3.

Quick update with legislation time coming quickly. First thank you to all that donated above and beyond to help support the legislative fight. An additional $4400 was paid to our lobbyist to increase his fee and cover his extra work load. Second thanks to all those that joined through...

Most will plant beans into crp after it comes out that first year.

Congrats on an awesome deer.

Didn’t hunt yesterday because of kids bball but saw 2 bucks in wide open field with does on the way. I do know my cameras have gone dead quit last 2 days. Next to nothing today.

I’ve heard this before and questioned it myself. Have you ever put a regular camera in same location to test this?

Sounds about identical to my situation. I feel the farm doesn't hold the deer like it should. Met with a forester, drew up a plan, and got approved for a cost share on timber stand improvement. Cutting will take place this winter. Same boat here some existing timber is a park. I made major...

Do to a 45 min drive, then getting dressed in the field, and not liking getting out of bed I tend to go into stand during that gray phase or slightly before. No lights. Every once in while I'll bump a deer but not a huge problem. I try to use ridges in the field and the terrain best I can. My...

Turns out that maybe taking the day off and the crappy warm weather yesterday paid off. Seen a fair amount of movement early in the morning. Passed a wild looking deer I probably was crazy for and ended up shooting the #1 target we had on this farm 20 min later. I guess I was wrong. I was just...

Unfortunately I took tomorrow off and it’s too late to change it.

Looking over my sweet clover plot. Lol. Tried redoing an old clover plot with buckoats and clover earlier this fall and I ended up with desert. Sucks.

Have Had this conversation with buddies a lot. No doubt in my mind it’s a huge factor. No different than feeding out livestock. Pour the “good” feed to them the healthier and better they grow. Those guys don’t hide the fact they are pumping feed to them. No reason they should. They have the...

Been busted opening a window before so bow hunting i always leave that main shooting window open. Late season with heater on, different story. Cost my boy a nice buck last year late season though trying to open a window. Does were to close already and they spooked taking 2 shooters with them.

Same boat here. Called yesterday. Really ticks me off. Was counting on enrolling some. Figured I’d call back in a couple weeks.

Are any of you guys hanging a dripper on these or putting any scent on the licking branches?

Work in the offseason and shoot a doe first. Passed 4 bucks on first day of youth. 2 nice 8pt and one 150 inch ten that we have pics of. They weren’t happy about that. Lol. shot the first nice doe that presented a good shot and he was shaking just as much as if it was a 180. No clamp on rest...

No right or wrong answer. I enjoy reading other peoples ideas. Other than them filling a doe tag before a buck tag rule I'm pretty much shoot whatever makes you happy category. Last year no buck tags were filled and they passed on plenty all on their own. DMar I'm stealing your games idea and...
