We on same page 100%!!!!!! The good part…. It’s a tiny amount of legislators asking for this stuff. Even if a guy said “I wish NR’s had more tags!!!!”…. It has almost zero support across all groups & legislators. It won’t pass. Farm Bureau is against more NR tags. Corn & soybean...

Iowas deer tags could be $3700 & we would still have a draw & a wait to hunt. Not saying we should or shouldn’t do that but it’s wild to understand how much folks are willing to pony up to hunt a state with better regs & older deer. & anyone waiting to hunt Iowa’s WHITETAIL… they most likely...

Not veneer like above describes. That one is past its prime for really any use. Probably some rot and to the RIGHT of your hat- u can see a line that’s “damage/defect” that could leave some rotted area. That tree…. Either let it live its life out. Or - find a buddy that does wood work…...

Pheasants in PA?!? Is that a common thing or fairly rare? They release the birds or native? We had a few pockets in southern MI when I was a kid that were full of pheasants. *ottawa county, mi. When I visit now, I don’t hear those stories anymore. That’s great photo & with that amount...

I’ll go against the grain & be the minority on this for sure!!!…. SPRAY!!!! Far more effective at killing cool seasons & easier to target cool seasons while keeping other things safe. No massive loss of organic matter & nutrient value up in flames. There’s some definite benefits to having the...

I’ve actually never heard of this. They call it “conspiracy theory” but…. Many of what folks call conspiracy theories seem to turn out to be correct in these recent years.

I guess!!! Looks awesome! 150 acres of Tsi…. How much time you have into that?!?!?!

U could spray em. Tons of options. Problem is…. You gonna kill em all and kill every other tree in there. Thinning is way to go IMO. Could hire done & do a lot of damage in a day.

That’s insane. How the coyotes didn’t get it is wild too. Wow.

Bunch of good brands that are WAY better than slime. Look at commercial and industrial tire sealants. They can plug like 1/2” holes. I rarely get flats anymore. Every tire: I buy “high ply” - like 10 ply & higher. Put super good sealant in. I bit the bullet and bought the bucket pump so...

I got this helmet. Hopefully good. Got it for $400…. https://www.lincolnelectric.com/en/Products/k3034-5

Big trees…. 6-10…. Id let a few “go out to pasture” & die a natural death. But that’s just the tree hugger in me (from the guy that’s killed probably a world record of trees ;) ). I do like big trees. 6-10 ain’t taking a lot of space. Maybe girdle the nastiest ones of them. Just a...

I just got the call!!! It’s in!!!!!! Gotta pick it up. Got: 255, cart, torch, purchased bunch of filled gas tanks & got a gazillion parts & things I’ll use up…. Only about $7500!!!! ;). Dag nab, lil more than I was thinking but it’ll last & hopefully do all I need it to!!

For sure!!!! Multiple guys that have been busted in our area had maps of our farms & last few years…. Would show OnX pins & “all the good farms” would be pinned. Heck- first guy I busted on my farm, had maps on him…. Clearly I got the maps…. “Lakosky farms” & several others folks would know...

100 tubes …. Even if u at $5-10 & Not end of world. I save $ & pull t posts from around farm & then get cheap fiberglass rods for other side. Lots of extra reusable zip ties. Use netting too & I even zip tie that on so don’t come off. Spend the $ & do em Right. Tubes are pry less than $5...

Me being me too ;). All good my man!!!! Love it!!!! I clearly think a lot of guys share that view. As of today, a majority that will dwindle over time. The data is slowly shifting as the younger generation takes over. So- for the benefits of a few days of blasting with rifles …. We have all...

Great points!!!! MO has some HUGE issues bubbling into a disaster & I’ve talked with IA DNR & MDC folks about this. Came up when MO is hiring sharp shooters for does in N MO & also- cannot control their doe #’s. U look across the line into IA - we are shooting enough does- “too many” most...

Agree 10000%!!!!!! MN, MI, PA & a few others do NOT have a NR problem with DEER. If anything… they are wishing MORE NR’s came there. & it’s not just that the NR’s don’t come there… it’s WORSE than that… the RESIDENTS are leaving!!! Or quitting. Come November in MI - the migration of...

All excellent points on hot topic with huge variance of opinions. I think the fishing one is a great point. With fishing- every state is wide open because you can manage by size + slot & throw things back. Deer on the other hand take 5 years to get to maturity. pheasants are another one where...

That’s wild!!! I’d actually like to see that listing!!! “Box blinds & stands go with”. That’s hilarious when I see that.!!! “Ahhh, ya, this is $10m…. Don’t think we need to squabble over $100k in stuff that would be more a pain to take down & move than it’s worth”. How generous to throw...
