I haven't heard of any real world experience with them yet, but it has been a while since I was so excited about spending $500 on outdoor equipment other than a gun. I will not buy one if there isn't a kick-butt security enclosure available like there are for the HC5x/6x series. This sounds like...

Tagged out in MO and Kansas in two weekends. I'm going to have to do a turkey hunt swap with some of you blessed Iowa boys next season and try for a three State tag out! Here are some pics of the birds

Picked up and a new farm and am looking for some new box blinds. I've tried shadow hunters, banks blinds, sportsmans condos and a few other no names...not thrilled with any of them. I'm leaning towards Rednecks, but not digging their premium. The blinds need to support gun and bow hunting...

I just switched our home PC out to a Mac, I typically took all my "dirty" SD cards from the field and reviewed them on our PC then formatted the SD card and was always plug-and-play back in the field with clean cards. I've tried all the format options on the Mac, but most cameras show...

I have a substantial number of tree seeds (mainly persimmon & acorns) that I cleaned and bagged in organic hummus and placed in a spare refrigerator. I just went to check on them and I think a kid was playing with the thermostat and the bags are 98% frozen solid. Should I keep frozen until...

Let's see your favorite outdoor pics, landscapes, view from the stand, etc. Here's one I took a few falls ago while hunting as a major storm was blowing in.

Threw up a Banks Blind Stump 3 this weekend on 10' 4x4's. I definitely prefer the Shadow Hunter "metal over wood" frame blinds, but this one should provide for some great afternoons with the kids & solid protection for late season hunts. The insulation and floor kit are mandatory for noise...

He's still just a tall 8 with nubs for brows, but he put on some great growth in a year. I'll be taking him if I have the chance...do you guys think he is 4.5 years old? Here he is last year: And a year later:

 Hoping you guys can help me out, is this Johnson grass? Helped out my uncle with a new plot today and this stuff was all around:

Guys, I went up yesterday to clean up some "weed trees" around a new 7-acre corn plot. I think most of the trees that I was planning on taking out are actually feral persimmons. There are probably 100-150 trees from 4' - 7' and a great deal already have small plum sized "green" fruit. If these...

Did anyone catch the latest episode of "Raised Hunting"? I believe it was titled "Thanks". One of the single best episodes of any hunting show I've ever seen. The Holder family was having some trespasser issues including stolen cams and got the DNR involved... I won't ruin the plot for you in...

Some decent sales going on here for more crud that you don't need, like python locks for eight or nine bucks with free shipping. http://m.dickssportinggoods.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=68539516&bc=CatGroup_Extra40OffSelectClearance_R5_C2_HuntingFishing&page=1

I drove through the area last night a few hours after dark on the way to Omaha. I honestly have never had so many close call deer collisions in a 15 mile stretch of road. Not over estimating but I had 14 deer run in front of me and saw at least 25-30 other solos/groups standing on the...

Once again time to day dream about summer pattern bucks. Pretty excited to see how these deer progress this season..nothing jaw dropping but love seeing them year-after-year. I was afraid one of them got popped by a neighbor, he disappeared after MO rifle season only to be seen again here...

It was a rough season in Missouri for me this year. Between the crazy weather, battling a "lost" trespassing mushroom hunter at 7:00 AM one day and getting bombarded by a herd of rouge cows in the middle of a hunt (from a farm 1.5 miles away), I didn't have an opportunity to close the deal. In...

I recently had a new 2 acre field cleaned and disced up. I will be limited with only ATV implements (ATV disc, cultipacker & sprayer) from now on and want to keep this field in shape to plant the Dbltree brassica/cereal mix later in the summer. I'm also not opposed to making it a permanent...

BEWARE - Backbone Hunting Ranch in Cameron, OK. Our group went two weeks ago and totally got played. We went a year ago and had a wonderful experience, so much in fact we booked a year in advance to ensure we had the weekend we wanted. This year was a polar opposite. One of the worst...

What are some mistakes you made early in your habitat management journeys and what are some things you've learned that could help others. I'll start. Mistake - Not prepping or planning ahead for tree plantings. I lost gallons of sweat, hundreds of dollars and loss of pride by planting trees...

I recently manually cleared an 3/4 acre of a timbered ridge with a chainsaw, most tops and logs are removed but still have a weekend or two of removal to do. I was planning on frost seeding white clover but don't think I can get it all cleaned, limed & fertilized in time (still haven't done a...

I can't stand those smaller bottles and "dish soap top" applicators. I carry around an old paint brush to help clear saw dust and spread, but that's about it. Any creative applicators out there that you've come up with? Also, anyone ever make a holster of some sort for the bottle so you can...
