I do both. I usually have a feeder at the end or side of my food plots. There is no doubt that the food plot is the biggest draw because I only throw 5/6 seconds both morning and evening. I pen my feeders with 8 hog panels where the hogs don’t homestead. They still come around, and I still shoot...

You can probably get all the info you need to skin and prep a deer from YouTube videos. I know Growing Deer TV put one out and I’m sure there are more. As far as methods of hunting deer, that’s gonna be fairly specific to your land and your geography. There are lots of “how to” articles in...

Patience is not my long suit Grizzz, but I’ll check for signs of germination in a couple weeks. Jack, I don’t think I’ll have any predation, that plot was thick ! It’s probably right up there with the best plots I’ve ever grown. If the hogs find it, that may be another story. Their sense of...

A couple of pics of the crimping caught with my Moultrie Edge camera.

The last good rain we had, a couple weeks ago, was nine inches in two days. It was a pond filler. A desert, it is not ! But wait……we were predicted a good rain Tuesday last, and not even a sprinkle. Supposed to rain a couple inches Saturday, but I’ll believe it when I see it. They get it wrong...

Well, I didn’t mow the plot, but today I seeded it with sunn hemp, peradovik sunflowers, buckwheat, and IC peas. I crimped it and it looked pretty good. I fertilized it too since this is the first time I haven’t done my usual disc, plant, and drag, (per Dr. Wood’s recommendations). My only worry...

No tapa, never liked it. I stay logged in, it’s just like an app on the screen of my ipad. Sometimes lately all I get is “page loading” but it doesn’t. I may need to log out and back in if I can locate my password. 😳

I thought a ramp was what you wheeled grandma up to get in the trailer house. 😝 ‘Splain yoself son !

For the last three or four days (at least) the site fails to load. What am I missing here ?

People on the ground need to watch for falling wheels !😜

That’s good to know Rusty, after thinking on it some more, I think I could mow it high, and let it start growing again. That way I could possibly time my seed and crimp routine a little better. Right now I’m afraid I’m gonna need to crimp before I’m ready to plant. I want to give the deer time...

Yep, it happens every year when things green up. Food plots are not natural deer food, browse is. My rye plot on another place is about a foot tall, just a couple weeks ago it looked like Astroturf. I was down there today building a pen around my protein feeder and the deer have stopped using it...

I know the rye will die on its own, but those annual clovers will too as soon as it gets hot and dry, and that could be as early as June depending on what kind of weather we get. There’s a reason for the saying “If you don’t like Texas weather, just wait a minute”. It probably applies to lots of...

I went to one of my leases today to check a camera and eat breakfast with my best friend, (there’s a country store nearby that makes killer breakfast burritos). I looked at my Green Cover plot, the rye is fairly tall, I’d say 18” to 2’ average. There are at least two annual clovers in the blend...

I’m not sure which one of these is a chubacabra 😜
