First time getting this little shaver on cam. March 15th and still covered in spots! When was mama bred!? Gestation period is 200 days, let’s say this guy is 4-6 months old. That means mama was bred March, April, or May of 2024. Holy smokes!

For those of you that have used them, is there a 360° cam that you’re particularly pleased with? Does any mfg make a cellular version of a 360° cam?

If all goes according to plan, I’ll be planting my soybeans with a drill vs a planter this yr. I really think I want to go 7.5” rows for quicker canopy & weed suppression. Have a field that likes to grow pigweed & Waterhemp and I want to see if 7.5” rows will help. I’m thinking 200k population...

Have any of you guys used Plot Start or Plot Boost by Deer Gro? I have to be honest, I’ve ignored it for years as it hit me as a bit gimmicky. I’ve dug in to a bit of research and it seems like it could be worth experimenting with. I’ve got a timber plot or two in particular that get a carpet of...

I’ve only planted cowpeas one time. I planted 15 or so acres of them in various sites on my farm. Some in bottom areas along a creek, others in plots on hill tops. I was amazed at how thick and tall they became over the summer. The deer seemed to hammer them, but the cowpeas more than kept up...

I have a custom built planter built by Jungman Wildlife Supply out of Nebraska. Yetter hoppers & plate system. It has a liquid fert system that allows you to put liquid fert down 2” to the side of the seed furrow. I’ve got corn plates, 2 different sets of sorghum plates, bean plates. I’ve...

If these questions have been asked before, I apologize, I'm looking at tractors. My 37HP JD 4300 is a sweet little acreage tractor and it's been a little beast of a food plot machine, but I'm becoming a bit of a sissy in my old age and I think I need a cab. Been looking at the TYM brand. Done...

I ordered the wrong size & can’t return to Lancaster since I opened them. Green Halo nocks ***MICRO DIAMETER SIZE. I have another unopened pkg of 3 as well that I’m going to return for refund unless someone would like to pay for 3 but get 6. I shoot Victory RIP TKO’s 300 spine & these are too...

What’s your favorite hanging harness? I need a new one! Thanks!

I had a Cycle Country brand years ago that was my favorite by a mile. I’ve had a couple Moultrie’s…my most recent one just dropped dead. Need a new one that’s: •built to last •front rack mountable •has a seed gate that seals up completely and will open just enough to properly meter switch...

Here is the letter I wrote to my Senator. Please write your senator too! I’m so tired of pin-headed politicians and their constant, insatiable desire for more more more tax dollars so they can continue to squander and mis-use it! Generally speaking, if you’re a politician, you’re a nitwit. Feel...

This is “The Basic 8”. He was another old, grouchy, known bully on the farm. I passed him at 20 yards on the morning of 11/4 and was rewarded an hour-ish later with the buck I posted previously. That said, I nearly picked up my bow and let this guy have it, which I would have been happy & proud...

We spent our 1st night back in Iowa on New Year’s Eve, 2020. After nearly 27 years of living in other states, what a dream come true to return home. We purchased a farm in southern Iowa and instantly got to work deploying cameras, posting signs, putting in food, etc. While my wife punched 2 tags...

If this has already been asked/posted, my apologies for being redundant. I’m curious what others around the state are seeing for acorn crop? On my farm (Ringgold County) there’s essentially no acorn production this yr, other than shingle oaks. I did have a young Bur Oak in the yard produce...

November 8th, 2022, we hopped in a Banks blind on a clover/chicory together at about 2pm. It was Hot and the sun was still too high. About 3:30 the clouds rolled in and I opened up the front window of the blind & rattled. In less than a minute this dude was in the clover plot walking sideways at...

Has anyone here used Q-Ball brand Quinclorac on SG? Label says same % active ingredient as Drive XLR8, but it’s less expensive AND label says works with 10 gal. water per acre vs. most others saying 20 gal. per acre is required. Thanks!

She had one heck of a first season on the new Iowa dirt. The 10 with the tiny drop was on 10/30 and her second buck was 11/16. Somehow that dude packed 17 scorable points into that stocky compact frame. She hunts her tail off & I couldn’t be more proud. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am required to plant several acres of my CP38E CRP into Early Successional Habitat. Cowpeas are one of the options. I've got about 24 acres, broken up into several different fields. I've identified roughly 15 acres I think would be well suited for cowpeas. I know from the reading i've done...

Hello friends, My apologies if this same question has been asked before, or if I'm posting this in the wrong area...While I've been registered for a number of years, we just moved back to Iowa & I wasn't active while we were living in Nebraska. Great to be back home! I have MCM...
