Do a search for Drop Dead Center bullets. I use them and weigh my powder and get great results. Shot 9 deer with them and everyone dropped within feet. I am sold on them as you can tell. I use triple seven granulated powder.
I would hit it with Roundup after you work it up and the pigweed has emerged. Then broadcast your seeds and cultipack them in. Thats the way I do it and have very good results. I also fertilize before I work it up with my rototiller and lime it as well when necessary.
Overkill
I totally disagree with the amounts Sligh suggested. You need to be responsible with herbicides not go crazy and use way too much. Someone else suggested 40 oz per acre which is much more than enough and a much better figure to use. I have had excellent results in spring summer with 1...
None of you must be selling hides or else you like to sew! I shoot a .17 Remington the smallest center fire and have killed hundreds of coyotes with it. I have a re-barreled Ruger Number 1 that I use and shoot out to 400 yards all the time. My longest shot was 628 yards with a range finder...
I use Drop Dead Center bullets. Do an internet search and you will find them. I used to use Barnes. Toby Bridges did an article on the ones I use now so after reading it I decided to try them. They work great for me. I weigh my powder on a powder scale and make up my loads in the quick type...
Easements are VERY costly when done thru the court. There are exact guidelines that have to be followed. I would first talk to the son-in-law and the south land owner and try to make sense with them. If all fails then go the legal routs but be prepared to shell out some money.
You need to start "willing" that arrow where you want it to go. Make it go and make it a routine on every shot. If you are concentrating on you arrow placement it will keep you distracted enough to not fall apart. When I first moved to Sask. I was a total wreck on many bucks just because I had...
That blood looks foamy to me so I think you had to hit at least one lung. It does not look like gut shot blood to me. I think you have a good chance of finding him. Now the bad your arrow had a lot left in it to sink that deep in the ground after hitting your deer. That puts some doubt on the...
The dead APPLE trees were not damaged by rodents!
Sligh1 is on the right track I think with his answer.
Newly planted trees need snow around the base to insulate from extreme cold temps plus they I think they do not harden off correctly when the protectors are on them.
I will take them off and...
Thanks for your help/replys loneranger.
I was hoping someone would have some answers that has used the tree protectors.
Maybe someone who has tried it both ways or something. I think I will pull them off as soon as the deer migrate out unless someone comes up a better idea. I only have 85 to...
I think the snow does not get around the base of the tree because of the protector and the tree does not get the insulation effect of snow and the roots freeze and winter kill. Rabbits are not a problem where the trees are located we only have snowshoe hare here. Mice and voles are not an issue...
I planted 4 different varieties of Oaks this past spring and put the blue tree protectors around them. The protectors have plenty of air holes in them. I lost 50 apple trees once due to winter kill and I blamed the tree protectors as I had 25 trees without them and they all survived.
So my...
