I got some EQIP funding on the farm I own. It did a great job of covering the cost to do the spraying and seeding but no income/rent. That will be the backup plan if we cannot get into a program that has a rental payment.

Jbohn, thanks for the offer and would be great to hang out and catch up. I have a feeling that you have more work than you can handle on your farm when you get back to the area!

Nrharris, I've read your thread about your property transformation and about your dad harvesting a great deer! I actually thought about all of that when I wrote this. Daver, you bring up great points/questions. The family has talked about this and I've gotten about 90% approval to have free...

Thanks all for the replies and please keep them coming. CottonwoodCanyon is right that the eligibility isn't for current years, it is for years within an old window so it would be 8+ years before it would be eligible even if it could. Hardwood, I've not calculated how many acres could be...

Hello All. My grandfather/father own a cattle farm in SE Iowa and are going to be selling off the cattle soon to "retire". A portion of this farm is a square 160ac rolling hill pasture with small creek rolling through it. Typical hilly pasture with some flat ridges, ravines, etc. Not too...

I ordered some new cold weather gear so selling off some stuff. I need to figure out prices and take some pics but thought i would post it up right away in case anybody is looking. I am located in SE Iowa and would be easiest to meet up in person but we can discuss shipping if needed. Message...

Jbohn you need to use that drill for some beans! I personally do bean plots because they are much less expensive than corn and in my experience can handle some browse better. I have never fenced mine but always have rowcrops nearby to help with pressure. I have thought (but not sure) that...

I have redneck buck palace blinds and love them. Customer service is incredible too! Several years ago i emailed them because i had a tiny pinhole on the top of it that occasionally dripped water. I asked how the best way to patch the hole (caulk, jb weld, flex seal, etc). They asked for my...

Looks great, gotta be happy with that! Icing on the cake is he came from your farm

I have owned both 450 and 350. I sold the 450 if that means anything. Very happy with 350….and i prefer a bolt action. No desire for me to have a rapid firing deer rifle. Coyote hunting is a different story…

Great deer for anywhere! Congrats to you and your father. My family has a similar pasture that is likely getting rid of the cattle soon. I am hoping to turn it i to great whitetail habitat as soon as i can. Well done!

Congrats on a fabulous buck! Patience and persistence paid off big time for you. I would also like the see the pallet blind, that is a great ide

Congrats on a brute! He is a great buck

I didn’t hear to much shooting around me today. Pretty quiet day…which is good!

That is a whopper! Hope he makes it your way

I am glad I am reading this. I have the MTO50 goretex whitetail extreme and was thinking about swapping into a fanatic or incinerator set. I run VERY cold while sitting stationary.

JBAGS, where are you located?

Great buck and sounds like a fun hunt! Way to get it done on a giant!

Way to get it done! Great buck and such a great experience for father/sons! Congrats

I have been working this week but planning to take tomorrow off to hunt. Hoping the lockdown situation has gotten much better since last week/weekend. Are you all seeing mature deer searching now or they still paired up with does?
