We were proud to get to share some knowledge just a few weeks ago on hinge cutting with The Management Advantage. So much emphasis is put on food plots. They take a ton of time, preparation, and money to be successful. Don't get me wrong, they have their part and we plant them, but there are...

That's funny right there!

http://themanagementadvantage.com/home/new-friends/ In this video a lady shoots a 6.5 year old buck. The deer only scores 130, but that's a good deer for Alabama. I would love to have enough land to let deer try to get to 6.5, but it would be nearly impossible on just 150 acres because of the...

A very unique snort wheeze. Some awesome footage right there!

Here's a second video they did. A little more in depth with the how-to. http://themanagementadvantage.com/home/trapping-coyotes-encore/

Or contact a local trapper to see if he would be willing to take you along for a day or two!

Has anyone broadcast radishes or other food plot seed on harvested corn? Many farmers don't want to take part of fields out of production for food plots, but broadcasting some radishes in the corn stubble can benefit the deer, the hunter, and the farmer. They showed it here in this video...

Gotta go with a big card!

I had occasionally put cameras higher up a tree to cut down on false pictures. For instance near a field edge with standing crops. Point it down to cover the edge really cut down on false pictures. You have to get the angle right to cover the trail. After this, we know to always set them higher!

Check out the latest episode of Reality Deer Management and see the results of an experiment we did as to why trail cameras spook deer. It might surprise some of you. It was cool to see how the deer reacted to different methods of placing the camera. http://youtu.be/XVQUSR5BdIk

It's time to get started on spring habitat work. The time you put in now makes the coming work easier and increases your odds at putting some bone on the ground next Fall. http://youtu.be/TYCx-hHdLkQ

One of the key elements of managing your property is controlling the number of deer you feed. The more competition there is for food, the less there is to go around. By taking a number of does off your property, you allow your bucks to get the nutrition they need to reach their maximum...

I successfully frost seeded an acre of it three years ago. Have 2 more acres worth of dead stuff prepared to do it again this winter!

All the hard work pays off in the episode of Reality Deer Management. Good friend Preston Brust, of LoCash Cowboys, came to hunt the early archery season here in Ohio. After four hard days of hunting, it all came together on the last hunt during the last hour. An awesome 140 class whitetail was...

We are currently between episodes, but I wanted to share some success from all the management taking place on one of our farms. Preston Burst, a good friend, and part of LoCash Cowboys came last week and harvested this awesome low 140s buck in a food plot next the water hole featured in the...
