my established switch is up about 6" , just south of Omaha, NE

When is it too late to spray atrazine on established switch?

All the deer that I had pics of with the blowed up hooves looked in prime condition all year prior including spring and then in December/January they developed the hoof problem and then ended up mia. They weren't suffering prior December. I had lots of prior data on each of the deer I'm...

I've had a few that had hooves like you posted Skip. All but one ended up never to be seen again. I showed a close up pic very much like yours to my buddy who is a vet and he was betting it was hoof rot. He said its getting more frequent now with the genetics built into beans to keep them...

good luck!

Teenagehunter, I sent you a pm.

Are you saying alfalfa is bad for their health this time of year as a supplemental feeding? I have not heard that before. Like Skip said corn is absolutely the worst thing for them for supplemental feeding if they havent' already been eating it. I like your idea of pruning fruit trees now for...

would be overjoyed if that became a reality. It would open up a lot land. Thanks for posting. I doubt it will pass with the powers that be that would not like it.

TeenageHunter, A good intro to help get people past the feeling of where do I start when they go to WY website for tag apps. Have you used the export function of onx to google earth? I like to use it as the one function that onx doesn't have that google earth has (the 3d elevation changes as...

My buddy had him officially scored at a sports show today. It was like ground growage, when you walk up to your buck and it gets bigger, rare I know.:) He had scored it at 177 2/8 gross but the bc guy scored it at 186 gross. Gotta love it. In my mind when he told me 177 I thought, wow, I...

Loesshills, I have taken one elk with the 7mm at a little over 300 yards and the barnes bullet performed fine. It left a hole on both sides but on several elk I shot in the hundred yard range they were found just under the hide on the opposite side of entry side. They did the job fine as well...

That guy is a POS, what a way to make your dad proud. Hope they stick him with ten of thousands of dollars in fines. Taking his license away won't do anything. It seems from my laymen education that many of these hardcore poachers have an addiction that can only be stopped by incarceration or...

Amen but I bet they will be back at it sooner rather than later

145, and a safe guess on age, at least 4.5 :)

Bigbuck, I was very curious about the old wound and even worked as though the broadhead could still be in there somewhere. There was no evidence of penetration of the chest cavity. The hide scar was very visible but here was no evidence on the bones of a hit. In the pics from this year one...

I agree with all of you, what a buck and its amazing at how much bone he put on in one season, especially after the wound. My buddy measured him and came up with 177 2/8. I guessed 180 before he left for home. He was alone when he did measure and has never measured one before. I plan on...

A side note on the buck. He lost a lot of weight from the middle of Oct to Nov 10. His body didn't even look the same. We still got just shy of a 100 pounds of meat off him though. That cropped broadside pic was from Oct. 13. The pic that says May 10 2013 was actually Oct. 21

My buddy did. I'll let people take a guess for them to test their skills if they wish. I would like to get it measured by someone who actually does it to make sure he/we get the actual measurement correct. Either way it really don't matter as it is a buck of a lifetime.:)

Let me know if you don't see them yet. I uploaded some pics again. If that didn't work, I'm out of options on my end.

Happy Hunter-it truly is as big as the picture makes it look. The trail cam pics gave us no indication of the actual mass he has. This year
