That's an awesome deer!

I was wondering about the beans because ive heard other people with flooded out beans say the deer werent touching them. We got about 8 inches of snow here. Ill make it out Saturday evening. Glassed a few different groups if deer yesterday evening and they all looked like does. Not sure where...

How are the deer eating the flooded portion of the beans?

Is the snow pretty deep down in there? You're gonna have a fun time getting something out! ;) Good luck! Bummer about the one you dropped.

Here are a couple pics of a Hornady SST 250gr with 150gr 777. I mentioned about earlier. This was a 150 yard shot on a doe and she ran 100 yds with very little blood trail. Bullet went through the meat of her right front shoulder, through the middle of a rib bone and angled back and shattered a...

Shot a doe at 150 yds on the 31st with a 250gr SST. Bullet went in perfect right in the meat of her shoulder. It shattered a rib and through at least one lung. I didn't think she was quartering to me much so I don't know if the bullet ricocheted after hitting that rib or what but it ended up...

One landowner I always give about a pound of morels to and sometimes fresh bluegill or crappie fillets. Used to give him a gift card but he asked me not to. I give gift cards to other ones. I also like the calendar idea. I have one landowner that doesn't let anybody bow hunt but he always...

I believe there is a statute against planting RR for wildlife foodplots. Doesn't sound like you are going that route anyway but just a heads up. Not real sure how the company would find that out anyway.

Ha.. I bet those high fence people were pissed. Good! I wonder how that would play out in Iowa if someone knowingly shot an escapee. Would that be considered shooting livestock. I would think it wouldn't be any different than shooting a neighbors cows if they got onto your property.

Probably a good thing your barrel had those ports on the side. I think it would have been a lot worse if not.

I think ive also heard of the rust on those. And I hear they are harder to sharpen. I only buy the stainless ones.

I use G5 Montecs and they are good fo-ev-a! Until I lose them anyway ;) They aren't 'bust your balls' expensive and they are easy to re-sharpen. I've shot 3 mature bucks with them and neither made it farther than 30 yards. Otherwise, I always replaced my blades as soon as I shot something...

First year I planted radishes and turnips, it warmed up in late fall after hard freezes and it smelled like rotten garbage, like real bad. Deer still pounded them. The radishes will rot and and you'll be left with what looks like a bunch of snake holes in the ground. They'll keep eating the...

Looks pretty sweet.. you're getting a lot done

I have no experience in this at all, but, I've often thought about buying in the future with a friend just because it may be the only way possible for me. Things I have thought about are; definitely get everything in writing in a binding contract, try to evenly split the property into huntable...

Hard to say how long for sure depending on the environmental conditions. As soon as an animal is deceased, epidermal break-down begins almost immediately. The best way to tell if your cape is bad or not is as Booner mentioned. Very lightly pull on the hair in all areas of the cape. If just...

Nice one Liv! I couldn't imagine dragging a deer that far!

The pots and pans clan didn't push anything to ya?

I think that's why you register the whole parcel number as a LOT and not a specific description of the actual acreage that is leased. At least that's how I read it.
