Ditto on the rebar! Trial and error as with everything! My first planting they had me use bamboo stakes! I’m actually in the process of removing a bunch of them and yes a little back and forth and it pulls right out 99% of the time ready to be used again!

I used to do some burns and always did firebreaks etc. Then one time it jumped at least a 20 ft wide break and that was it for my fire burning career. Humbled me for sure! From now on I call in the professionals! Lol

Is your neighbor Josh Bowmar? :)

Looks like a sweet piece it should sell quick! If you need a piece to roll into I’m about to list a 160 in Guthrie county! Just sayin! :)

Yeah after witnessing the huge holes they dug up even years after I put some down I stopped using mineral and then when the Franz buck thing happened I realized it wasn’t worth the risk. I did think maybe if you did go that route to put it on high or gravely spots in creeks that periodically...

Yeah that’s what we’re gonna do. Doesn’t sound like we’d have to do any reseeding just cut a couple small volunteer ash trees out of the one buffer strip.

We have a contract expiring this year. The new rates are about $30 an acre cheaper than they were 10 years ago for us.

I’m beginning to think does anybody have a job anymore? Lol

Yeah, I’m curious what the rates will be we have a big farm coming out, but we want to try to re-enroll some of the steep stuff and the buffer strips along the river. It’s all in that SAFE (gaining ground) program now. Is there anything better out there? It was enrolled when we bought it.

I noticed the same thing a few shed real early but a a bunch were still holding as of last week. Looks like a few are starting to drop now I guess that’s par for the course. I’m more concerned about this warm weather. They aren’t gonna be as easy to find this year not being concentrated on the...

That’s what I was told as well. Another gray area? Lol

What about if I did a contract sale? How would that work with the capital gains?

I think you dug in a little too deep on that one but yes, I know this but thanks for correcting me. Minus dementia or Alzheimer’s or any life altering event a person’s character doesn’t normally change imo!

I thought by the time it kills a whitetail deer they are usually dead from hunters or natural causes?

Invite him on an Iowa Whitetail Q+A podcast?

Ha I had a farmer looking for sheds on camera last year. If it wasn’t for the picture of him with the sheds in his hand, I would’ve believed him if he told me he was lost because he had Alzheimer’s as old as he was. Age can change a lot of things, but it doesn’t change someone’s character. Smh

Yeah that one shouldn’t be hard to track down if it’s local.

I was looking at my legislative update this morning. Is there really a bill someone put out there that says you can shoot deer with depredation tags and just let them rot and not have to at least donate the meat? Thats insane although I’m pretty sure it happens all the time but now they want to...

I also like the option if we have those other farms paid off we don’t have to have every single acre rented out in order to help pay the bills. I read somewhere or I think Kip Adam’s told me at that steward course that the worst thing for a deer hunting property is to run cattle through it. I’d...

I did not know you can do that. I’ll definitely have to dig in a little more. Thanks!
