Dream trip for sure!!

I've been looking like a maniac since last January with no luck. Living 60+ miles from a sporting goods store makes it impossible to just "stop by" and see if it's in stock. If somebody finds some I'd be happy to make it worth your time to snag me a can or two. Ironically Wi transplant and I are...

I just bought a newer John Deere 5075E to use on our farm. I have loved it so far but I’ve gotta get some weight added for mowing and working on rougher terrain. I’m new to the tractor ownership world & based on research it appears adding tire ballast is the best way to go. Has anybody found a...

Looks awesome! You're a stud, always cranking out projects!

Shut the front door. That is AWESOME!!

That's so cool!!

They don't get much prettier than that!! Congrats

Giant!! Congrats!

Heck of a buck!! Congrats Scott!

I believe it's a correlation to the # of acres they have access to. I have permission on maybe 3-5 farms per year. Far from high quality deer hunting pieces (40-100 acres of mostly ag with a few draws, etc) & with other people hunting them too. I can always find at least one 160"-180" if I am...

Ironically I just talked to Farm Credit yesterday. Going to re-finance our farm through them. They can't lend more than 65% of appraised value. Current rates on 15 year fixed was 3.79% and they pay a 1% dividend every year so effective rate is 2.79%. They also do longer fixed terms. I'd be...

UNREAL, congrats man!!

Just enough to hide behind & sneak out of the creek & up into the blind. Single Bales lined up on the ground would work just fine until the ladder. Then I’d need them stacked Just didn’t know if they’d be tipsy if I was going 2-3 high

Unbelievable!! Big congrats!!

So we have a 2 acre turnip/radish plot that's about 200 yards from the entrance to our farm. Most afternoons there's deer in it 3-4 hours before shooting light so bumping deer happens every hunt. I had planned to plant a plot screen but didn't get it done. I'm curious if anyone has any permanent...

Beast!! Heck of a nice buck, congrats!!

Good Pete. How many times can Skip nicely state the obvious. Quit complaining or look at options to improve your soil. Based on the wealth of knowledge Skip's shared OVER & OVER again there are things you could be doing for your small plots that don't require huge budgets. Perhaps taking his...

Not to hijack the thread but a similar question. When do you start to knock down standing corn? I've got 5 acres (free seed & a buddy to plant it cheap) on the farm & have never had a grain plot before.

If that was an option I'd absolutely do it. If I had a tractor with a cab at the farm I'd probably use that & it would be the perfect solution.

I'll play devil's advocate to the previous post. I think doe harvests could certainly fluctuate due to the lack of HUSH availability. Our family doesn't mind a little venison but we donate almost all of our deer. Not having a HUSH option really makes me question my strategy for harvesting does...
