Sprayed about one third of the fields yesterday. High rate of both glyphosate and ams. 24 hours later and I see yellowing. Should get the rest sprayed between work in the next week or so. Is it ok to randomly spread pel lime throughout the fall and then again real early spring before disking...

Thanks Tom and sligh1. Couple of additional thoughts. I'm really not a fire guy. I totally understand the benefits of burns but my comfort level on starting or being responsible for field fire is a big 0. But to you point of cost saving. This field with be with wildlife in mind and will not be a...

Been a while since I've posted but still a daily reader. I have a 13ish acre field that I have been mowing for the past couple of years to knocked the mfr back with limited success. Thinking about planting rr beans in the spring to really take control of the issue. What would be the best way to...

Well most of the plots are in but I'm looking for buckwheat seed to help in building up some soil for a hill top area. Checked with the Chariton coop and they do not have any...anyone know of a place in SC Iowa or DSM area??? Thanks

Now, I really don’t want to start anything or open up Pandora’s Box, but understand I grew up in a very buy American city (aka Detroit). I have both Leupold and Bushnell (Elite series) on rifles and muzzleloaders…if (or maybe when) I buy another scope I’ll be hard pressed to not look at the 4200...

The Field..... Thanks for the insight. I’ll probably talk to Osenbaugh again this winter and make a decision, but a couple of things have entered my thoughts. First, the field really doesn’t have that good of cover right now; with everything pretty much on the ground. Guess I should have...

CIR Planting Option.... I’m thinking of planting a 10ish acre hill in CIR for cover and need some clarification. I picked up some seed from Osenbaugh earlier this year and had a discussion about ways of planting CIR. The plan was to cut in late summer and spray roundup in early fall. That plan...

Thanks for the info IA ML'r. I know I read somewhere that there was discussion on tracking wounded deer with dogs. I also read that the Wensel brothers receive the ok from the DNR to have a dog assist with tracking a wounded deer. Made it sound like you might get the ok if you contacted your...

I read somewhere (I think IW ?) that a bill was on the table to allow the tracking of a wounded deer with dogs. Anyone knows if it passed or was even true…. Thanks

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I wonder 100 times a day what he is doing at that moment. Of course now my wife wants me to finish my degree at the UAF while she works at the hospital.....hmmm move from Michigan to Iowa through Alaska...

Well, my oldest son (in avatar) left to discover a new world. He left late last week for Alaska, following a dream of many years. I give him a lot of credit going to alone. He walked off the plane in Anchorage, met with an outfitter and boom…on his way to the island of Kodiak. He will be working...
