Looking great! I have a similar area on a farm, approximately 10ac or large silver maples on a creek bottom. The creek near it will periodically flood but typically drops back down fairly quick. It is wide open in late fall/winter. Deer wonder through it but obviously never bed. There is a...
I have owned both 350L and 450B and can not tell any difference in killing power between the two. Definitely had poor blood trails with the Hornady SST type bullets. Been using regular soft points in 180gr 350 and have had much better experience. I do prefer the 350 over the 450. Recoil is...
Thanks for this insight. You are probably right about overthinking and stressing, I normally do! The large trees, maybe 8" diameter and larger I do tend to girdle and treat. The trees smaller than 8" are what I have dropped, I would say most of them are 5" and smaller. I will probably go...
The reports I have been told from the land listing agents is that the rec land market is ticking upwards as of recent and they anticipate 2025 being a stronger market for sellers than 2024. Clearly the price gap between farmland and rec land is shrinking.
Did some TSI work this weekend on a bedding ridge and really made a mess! There was already a fair amount of deadfalls laying around from some fallen ash and elm trees. I cut a TON of ironwood trees and it is now a tangled mess that I am afraid deer will feel trapped and not use. How do you...
What are y’all’s current opinion of rec ground prices and forecast? I have a lead on a really nice piece of ground that may be coming up for sale and I am on the fence. The price will be on the upper end of the going rate and it won’t be any undervalued. I don’t mind paying max rate if prices...
Getting ready to buy mineral to put out. Last year I used Purina wind and rain and like others in this thread say, it was “so-so”. Have you guys found a good mix that would be available at coops that has been successful?
I have never owned Reconyx and probably never will due to cost. But I have not found any difference in longevity between $30 cameras and $150 cameras. They all last about 3 years and start failing for me.
I have a mixed bag of older non-cullular "cheap" trail cameras that are quickly failing. Looking to buy a bunch of cheap cameras to cover a lot of area without cell cam bills. What do you all recommend for best bang for buck in cheap non-cullular trail cameras based on longevity, battery life...
I have an Ororo heated vest that seems to work well. I bought directly from their website but Scheels sells them as well. I learned that you need to buy a little snug so that the heat is in close contact with your body. I am a big fan or first lite sanctuary set for outer layer. Super warm...
Thanks again all for the suggestions! Going to do some corn next year to see if it helps. Cannot do alfalfa on this farm because I cannot bale it (dies off if cut but not baked doesn’t it?). Guessing there is truth to leaving for large timber acorns, I have plenty of oaks but not as many as...
