My farm in SE Iowa varies from decent to very good. This year is a very good year.

Very neat and interesting, but notice the backgrounds they display it with. They are all horizontal lines. These shields are great at horizontal but not vertical or angled lines. It still might work well in a hunting scenario, but most cases you still look like a blob/square. Better than a...

I'm pretty sure it's okay for alfalfa too but I'd do a little Google search to be sure.

First my disclaimer. I'm not near as good at this stuff as others on here. In my clover plots I spray clethodim for grasses and 2,4,D B for broadleaf, in established plots and have had good results. It does not kill the clover. BUT be careful to use 2,4,D, B (note the "B"). Normal 2,4,D...

Just got this from Sen. Mark Lofgren. Pretty noncommittal but I'm not surprised. Does anyone know if his comment about not knowing of it is moving forward or not is accurate? John, Thanks for your email regarding HF 2672. I've been asking those who should be in the know on this for an update...

looks like your blind is just fine to me. maybe some damn termites ate the tower

Or smoke bombs from the fourth of July tents. Just don't burn your blind down!

It doesn't look like the link I tried to post worked. If you google the title below, it should show the article. Iowa Senate passes traffic camera regulations

It looks like at least some restrictions are being put on traffic cameras. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/iowa-senate-passes-traffic-camera-regulations/ar-BB1lIy7M?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=8a34d2309e2e43d5bca1e3710a0a7e33&ei=62

perfect decoy fan. no gobler will be scared to run at that! :):D

yep! damn things are all over iowa.

I understand wanting someone to look out for your best interests and yours only, but a lawyer can do that also. I have done real-estate deals with and without realtors. When not using a realtor i have hired a lawyer to review paperwork, do title searches, etc. at a fraction of the cost of a...

If you are up for an awesome brunch and some day drinking...go to Mullets. It's even great food without the day drinking.

Heal up soon. And by the way, good planning on the timing. Birthday parties won't interfere with the rut or turkey season. Side bonus...if he gets into turkey hunting you have a long list of bday presents to pick from with a March bday! My daughter's October bday had a lot of deer season...

To offer a different option...I have a Troy Built 220 mph and 600 cfm. Clearly not as good as the Stihl 800 (240 mph and 900 cfm) but also about 1/3 to 1/2 the cost. I have done half dozen burns with it and it has been absolutely fine and that includes a couple hairy situations it...

The ones dropped on my place were not so thick that a deer couldn't still get through. I can still get through, but its work. One area with little bedding was set up with a core areas (maybe a 20-30 yard circle) mess of trees then it has half a dozen spokes coming off it that are 50 - 100...

I've had a 120 acre piece for ten years. Has a good variety of terrain and decent cover. I've take several 150-180' deer over the first nine years. I wanted to start making it even better so I hired Midwest habitat to come down and do TSI for two days. That made some reasonable bedding areas...

A lot of good stuff in this and others posts to help people look at their spending in different ways to help them get what they really want. My family growing up was very blue collar and frugal. Luckily that rubbed of on some of the kids. When I was in college (1990), my plumber older brother...

Has anyone here had luck pulling these? I am looking at buying a tree/post puller ($1,500) for my tractor and pulling 10 acres that are THICK with these bushes. I know its not near as fast as running a forestry mulcher over them but just curious if anyone else has done this. Hack and squirt...
