I like making mock scrapes. I just ziptie a grape vine about waist/bellybutton height. Clear out the ground below it and scrap up the dirt. Usually works really well. I've never tried adding any scents to them, never felt I needed to. I'll take a leak in the scrap, I think that does seem to...

I'd like to go, but will be on RAGBRAI

When you going to take me on a bear hunt?

Do you have a resource i can read up on this more? 1. So money in your IRA can be used to purchase land? If someone has say 100k in an IRA does that mean once they purchase the land with the IRA their IRA balance is now zero? 2. And then any income such as rented acres has to go straight back...

Well, relative to todays prices, I still seem some 40ish acre size pieces come up now and then that don't see to bad. I really think a 40 acreish size is pretty attainable for most people if they want it. Occasionally still will see something 70-80ish that doesnt seem bad. Anything bigger I...

that ones been online for a bit now. Attractive price and close to the metro, but you got a 4 lane highway running the length of the north border, yuck. Probably would of sold by now if it wasnt for that

Luckily I have a good neighbor across the street from me, works for the DNR even. I am doing cedar screening along the road. I plan to get a bunch of dummy cameras (older broke cams) and hang them up in more obvious spots to hopefully help scare anyone. As far as I know I have not had any...

I came across this little fella last weekend when I was doing some work on my farm. I was walking up to weed whack around a tubed sapling and he ran off from a couple feet away, was bedded in the tall grass. Had it not moved I probably would have stepped on it. Not sure how old, but i would do a...

How important is getting the seed packed done after broadcasting? This past weekend I broadcasted about a 1/2 acres worth, about 5-10 yard wide screens. About half of it was in an area I can't get anything to it to try and pack down, it was walked on to try and pack it I had a couple of helpers...

Closed on my first farm, an 80, at the end of 2021 at 32 years old. I knew I wanted to buy land when I was in college. I still remember sitting in the computer labs at ISU looking at whitetailpropeties.com all the time and dreaming. It was my #1 goal in life, to own my own farm. Whenever I...

Yesterday, 5/18, I broadcasted some clover seed. I know its late, but wanted to give it a try. Couple weeks ago I sprayed the areas with gly and 24d. Yesterday came back and burned them off and then raked them out a bit. Broadcasted clover. I know its late, but really wanted to try and get...

Wow, that is just insane

Thats a fast 3 hunts, awesome sping

Awesome looking cabin

they are tubed, so that should protect from spraying?

What is recommended to spray?

My first tree planting this spring is doing really well. Yesterday after turkey hunting I checked on most of my seedlings. 75 swamp white oak, 25 plum, and 25 white pine. Nearly everything is doing well, just one plum not leafed out and although I didnt check every oak I'd bet 95% + are leafing...
