Never been but the texas hunting forum raves about a guy from corpus christi named captain clint. Good enough reviews I have considered taking a road trip there and fishing for a couple days

Ha ha carry over! I bought some gly for work this summer, manufacture date of 2017 and 2018. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Contact your district forester, I think Jeremy Cocharan is in central Iowa. They will have a list of recommendations, one of them is the old district forester. A couple neighbors used him a few years ago and were very happy with him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Turf type fescue will look the best in dry years. Buy a blend that has some rtf(rysomitis tall fescue) in it if you can. It grows more like bluegrass so will fill in weak spots. I have a baseball field at work that had a little rtf in the bluegrass sod. It looks like you could burn it off in a...

Is there some grass on the trails now? If so just mow it a couple times a year and it should thicken up. Overseed or frost seed clover into it but in my experience the clover dies out in a couple years. I bushhog the trails through my timber and they have good grass cover on them. I’m always...

Plenty of cattle around here and one big feedlot 4 miles south. Even in years that ehd isn’t a problem I find at least one dead velvet buck in the crick. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m on the marion mahaska line and the big crick through my place has been dry for a month. It’s a matter of time at this point. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A bunch of pieces to this and a lot of them have been mentioned already. Teen age hunter brought up a good point about his generation. They are happy to make enough money to meet their needs today with no real plan for the future. That isn’t a dig at Josh, he is living a life most of us are...

Worse if you are trophy hunting in my opinion. I started deer hunting in the early 90’s shotgun season. Pressure was crazy in my area. It was buck only and if it had antlers you shot it. Lots and dinks got killed but a fair number of big bucks too. Back then you barely saw a tree stand in...

Fall planted grass does way better than spring seeded. I would just plant a good Kentucky blue perennial rye mix late August and not worry about a cover crop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I will get pictures of my neighbors bridge. It started out as two trailer house frames and then he added on to one end. Quit the farmer engineering masterpiece Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My neighbor has several bridges for his utv’s. The deer use all but the longest one, it’s pushing 150 foot. Another thought, get a mini excavator and cut a nice slope on the banks where you want the deer to cross. I reworked some crick banks on my little farm a few years ago and it changed how...

We had a top handle husky at a city parks dept I worked for years ago. Great saw for pruning trees and clearing small trees, took down some 10-12" trees with it and it got the job done.

I agree with Dave, log the maples to open up the canopy and then plant willows.

Close to 50% holding on my camera yet. Walked some public land this weekend and found 2.

Skip it sounds like you need to make a couple bait stations and set a bunch of snares. Hunting will get some but trapping or snaring would do the most good. A group with a good pack of hounds can put the hurt on them too, especially in deep snow. I had neighbors that ran hounds for several...

Agree with IBH, buy good materials. Most of the electric rope and tape sold in farm stores is not UV stable, sunlight will break it down in a few years. Electro braid is the best I have found, UV stable and copper wires. The advertised amount a fencer will power is for solid wire, using rope or...

I have one coming to my feeder that is shed all ready, looks healthy and fairly mature. The last several years 50% of bucks around me have shed by the end of January and only a couple carry into March. Nobody around me is doing food plots or leaving standing crops so the deer have browse and...

Awesome! Any hunt turns into a coyote hunt if one shows up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve been out still hunting a couple times this week. Deer have been browsing in the creek bottoms 2-3 in the afternoon. Has been a lot of fun even if I have not had a shot at one I want. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
