I have a bunch of awp and would like to get some in the ground this year. What is the latest I can get it in the ground and still get some growth or am i too late? The rain i would think would push some plant dates further out this year because there is so much moisture in the soil...

I was going to try a mix of brassicas, turnups, oats, and AWP. Will the brassicas shade out the oats and awp too much to make it worth mixing it in? I probably won't get in the ground until mid to late august here. I'm putting it in some CRP fields. Just going to mow it, spray it , disc it...

Anyone ever used these before? I have heard that they last far, far longer into the season than any other oat. I heard it once and passed it off as some good luck someone must have had with it on one farm but since then I have heard from different credible sources about how long it lasts...

Is there something that I can use to spray a bunch of red cedars in a crp field that will kill them? When would be the best time? I can't get to these very easy w/ a mower so I was going to put the back pack on and spray if i could.

Now I generally have a rule that I won't shoot anything till it reaches maturity but I think I will make an exception with these two. I can't have this going on on a farm I hunt! [/img]

I wanted to know if anyone on here wants to try to split a bag of alfalfa with me. I am looking to get a 50 lb bag of grazer alfalfa from welters. I am planting just over an acre and I just don't have any need for the rest. The bag costs 160.00 + shipping so it's definitely worth splitting...

These rains have really postponed me trying to plant my corn plot and because of that i am worried that it will be too late to get it in. I was told by a farmer that june 14th is the cut off date for corn but mine is a food plot and I'm not looking to produce 140 bushel corn either. So for a...

I am looking to get a rotary tiller but i am not sure which one to get. Is one better than another for these things? I would like to get a 60" + Tiller. Anyone know where i could pick one up cheap?

Now i know corn and beans can be flipped around every year to help replace the nitrogen but how about other food plots. What other food plots could I flip year to year to help keep some nitrogen in the ground and more money in my pocket?

Since the trail cam forum is generally slow this time of year I would love to see a topic here of guys who have pics of the same buck for many years. I think it would be really neat to see how they have aged over time. Unfortunately I can't start the example because I don't have any trail cam...

Do any of you know if there is a free aerial photo website available for IL that is like the one that is available on this site where it shows counties and county lines?

How many of you have broadcasted brassicas into corn before? Also did it come up very well? What are the pluses and minuses to this? Thanks!

Do you guys have any suggestions on a good TSI book? I would like to learn a little more about it. Thanks, TT

I am looking into getting a small tractor so i can put food plots in as well as mow with it. I don't think I will be tilling up more than 5 acres a yr but i will be mowing alot more than that. What would you guys suggest for a small tractor and accessories for tilling and mowing. i am not...

I am looking for frost seed options right now. This next year my farm I hunt will have corn standing all around where I would like to put food plots. So if I want to do food plots this year I will have to frost seed them. I already have clover established so i am looking for other options...

[/img] Well he's not a whitetail but you don't get a trail cam of these everyday. i don't know of any game farms in the area but who knows where he came from. I can't see a ear tag when I zoom in. If you hunt along the Cedar river watch out! But I also got another nice pic in the same spot...

I wanted to pose this question to you guys since many of you own and manage your own land. Why not shoot an 8 pt when he is 3 1/2? Most qdm theories state to let the buck reach 4 1/2 before they should be harvested to see what they develop into. The reason I am asking this is because one of...

This weekend I am happily and sadly taking a 15 yr old terminally ill kid hunting. He has a brain tumor and unfortunately has not been givin long to live. He is my cousins nephew and when I heard he loved hunting i volunteered to take him hunting on my side of the state. I truly would like to...

Never seen a deer do this before.
