40 yards max, and no there was never any major trail or movement through there, just a few stragglers that would get down wind at the end of the night. They come from the timber to the SW/S, feed through naturally, and on to the wide open cut fields after dark. I am simply just wanting to...

Respect your stance and tend to agree, just not really applicable in this case. I'm trying get them to stay away from me! I do like your draining the pond analogy though!

First timer here: This past spring '24 I encountered a situation where to discourage deer getting downwind of a permanent field blind, I ran a 75 yd strip of fencing across a section of my open field. Used 6ft T posts and woven wire fence. The top was around 5.5ft high, and left a ~10in gap...

Sounds like you need to come up with a different way to access, or abandon the plot/stand all together. Not sure on your farm size/layout, but eradicating their choice bedding seems counterproductive. Typically much easier to move the food than move the bedding.

Cut the rest of the stuff like locust & honeysuckle. Don't cut or hinge the hedge/Osage trees. They're old, gnarly, and make for some of the best big buck thickets in the midwest. Kill the Honeysuckle & locust, and replace them with single oaks and cedars. That mixed with your hedge trees...

Interesting seeing the fandom of box elder. Where I grew up they were pretty much the only "tree" besides mulberry and hedge that grows along ditches and in little thickets. Always considered them junk before knowing what they were even called. That said, have always noticed that they re...

Spot on example

Have some on order from MDC for this spring. Swamp white, pin, and english seem to handle bottom ground well

Whatd you spray it with last year for that 5ac and how was your kill? I did a bunch in April and it all re sprouted LOL Refuse to do any woods work this time of year with all of the deer herded on my property

I've noticed this with my reconyx cell too. It also seems like the only cell cam that the deer visibly investigate/get skiddish around. Anyone else notice? I dont know why. I have three different brand cell cams on a popular field as a sloppy experiment, and almost every time I sit it I see...

Beast!! Congrats

Drones will do nothing but bad things for the future of deer hunting. They are incredible for recovering deer, but will inevitably get in the wrong hands and be abused as they become more affordable and common. Only way to limit to legit drone businesses is to have steep annual permit fees...

There's a short thread somewhere on here, but you can easily transplant 1-3ft red cedars in the spring. They take abuse and thrive

Speaking of switch, what is the difference between RC BR and new (i think) RC Sundance?

This is probably too far but I got mine from Tanner Planters in Kankakee, IL. 3pt 2,3, or 4 rows.

What is your favorite deer soybean variety/hybrid you have personally ever planted?

Great! If you have open or fairly open area the PW3600 works fantastic, and for thicker timber I have been using the sun&shade, larger panels this year. I have 2 systems and around 20 Ks, Js, and Ls and dont have a single battery in any of them, and havent for multiple years. Here is my one...

I can't remember. I don't have one accessible to look at the moment. Maybe someone else on here knows. I have J's and L's too. the L's are way better pics no doubt.

LOL you're asking the wrong guy. I agree completely with what you're saying and continue to ask the same thing. In fact, a few of the dealers even swap out the lenses before shipping you your cam. Wild To the power point. I dont have a single one (20ish) not on some sort of panel now. Years...

You're the man Skip, thanks!
