Hi guys. I haven’t posted here in a while but thought I could use some help from folks that are a lot smarter than me. We have a plot that has developed amaranth & waterhemp. It is obviously gly resistant. I have yet to plant anything at this point and was hoping to do 1/2 brassicas & 1/2...

I am following dbltree’s steps for frost seeding switchgrass. The area I am converting to switch is currently in a pasture mix. I mowed it down Aug 12th but unfortunately we have had a ton of rain in SW WI and I have been unable to get the Oust/glyphosate sprayed as of yet. I was planning on...

I will have cattle grazing the pasture until Aug 1st. At that point would I be able to spray off the pasture and broadcast brassicas for a foodplot? I do have a cultipacker, would that help get good seed to soil contact if I went over with that after broadcasting? Just curious if this method can...

Anyone here ever bought land with their retirement account? If so, how does it work and what are the stipulations? Or if someone could post a link to some information that would be great. Thanks!

For those of you who leave standing beans and hunt a ground blind over them...do you have a problem shooting over the beans at all? Our beans have to be 3.5-4' tall and was thinking that could be a problem in a ground blind. Was thinking about building a platform that is about 2' tall to avoid...

And everyone's acorn crop looking like this year? In the cities where I live usually the driveway is covered non stop. This year...nada. Where we hunt in SW WI there are zero apples this year due to late frosts. Not sure about the acorn crop there as I haven't walked the timber at all...

I have some photos to share but am out of town now and unable to post from my computer. I send BDahms a text with some photos that he will be posting for me later today. Hope you enjoy the pics. I enjoy seeing other posts so I thought I would share some of my own. Can't wait for season to start.

Am going to oversees my soybeans with winter rye around Labor Day. Curious what rate per acre would work best?

Finding crappie in the early spring has been pretty easy for me but have never really tried much after that. Any pointers or tips to help me locate crappies during the heat of summer? I've got a hunch a few of these Iowa deer hunters are also crappie experts! Thanks!

Hey guys. Haven't needed to look at cams for the past couple year but am now in the market. Ideas on the best value cam? Thanks

Curious if anyone has a kayak setup for fishing? If you do or know of others who have them, any suggestions? Thanks.

Anyone have one? Just curious about the spreading width it produces with soybeans.

As anyone has success broadcasting and then covering soybeans? Obviously, I don't have a planter. My plan was to disc up the ground and broadcast the soybeans and then drag to cover. What I intend on doing is to do this in 20' wide strips and leave a little path wide enough for my ATV so I can...

I arrowed a buck Sunday, Sept. 20th. We had a couple velvet pics in the summer and also a few hard horned pics early in Sept. I actually saw this buck out in the alfalfa field while walking out my first hunt of the year. He came out by another stand we have up so I decided to sit there the next...

Anyone know how to resize a photo so I can upload it to the sight. It says 1.0MB max. I shot a buck on Sunday night and wanted to post a story and a few pics in the harvest section. Thanks, Mark

I currently have a smaller field enrolled in the Dbltree mix. The brassicas last year are now planted into oats and annual clovers and the cereal section in fast growing rye with red clovers underneath. Well just this week I decided it is too much of a pain to get to this field to continue...

I've never hunted from an enclosed blind before, as I have never gun hunted for deer. BUT, it seems more and more people are using them for bowhunting now. Most of our deer activity during the daylight is down in the back valley. We have a stand down there but the wind can really swirl at any...

We had been hunting hard all week with very little rut activity and sightings in general. All our corn was down but there were hundreds of acres still standing directly south of us. Wasn't feeling overly confident but decided to stay at it. Well on the morning of November 9th, about 8:45, I...

I have over 3 acres in the dbltree rotation of brassicas, cereal grains, and clover. Had plenty of deer in there all summer and early fall. The last couple weeks deer activity is almost non existent in these plots. Could it be that there are so many acorns (and hundreds of apple trees) that they...

What have been your successful tactics for hunting the last week of Oct? Close to food plots/ag fields? Rub lines?
