No here. This is more ag country. You can see across the river to Nodak on both parcels.

Yeah. Neither place sets up well for archery.but great for rifle. I'd b7ild 1 box blind on each property.

In nw mn? Friend has 2 parcels about 2 miles apart. Both all riverbottoms. Bout 40 acres each. She's thinking of setting each on up for our 9 day gun season. Not an area to come and shoot booners although every few years, a couple slammer show up. Western MN. Red River bottom Norman county. 35...

Nice, clean shed.

I don't have the acres to plant them for a foodplot but..., if you wanna see the VERY BEST thing to have for a rubbing post, plant a few Mammoth Seeds in strategic spots. Ain't no stopping bucks from destroying them. One of my annual fun project's.

So many things out there now on YouTube about habititat management. Some really good!! No ONE scenario fits all.. I've jumped big buck in SO MANY weird spots over the years!! Best advice I can give, even a thick spot the size of an average garage can be a magnet in an area that has an open...

Been there maybe 10 times. Everything but 1 was cold,raining,blizzards and dodging icebergs. That ship sailed years ago. The fishing can be World Class though!

One thing important about a blind is..., a good overhang and window gasket seals. I build mine with a 12" overhang. And will also put and awning above doors/ windows. Super sucks to try and open a window when it's below freezing temps to have it froze stuck from a driving snow/ rain. ALWAYS...

Yeah Skip. A metal bucket set on bricks. I use wet leaves/ straw. Also, it does a great job deodorizing the blind.

I build blinds for others and a few for myself. They are completely bug proof. When I build them, and build a smudge fire inside of them and close them up. Any (even the tiniest bit) of smoke escapes I figger out where and address it.

Early season, radish /DER. After it turns cold, PPT. But pumpkins Trump them all.;)

A 3 blade diameter of 1.25 " has about the same cutting surface as a 2" blade mech. I've shot plain Jane 3 blade Muzzys for 25 years. Don't think I've ever had a broken blade? Over 100 deer and 40 bear. Yes, a few bent blades. Been in on 100s of bloodtrails over the years. 2 things have I've...

Heck, with the Editing going on, picture posting problems and about 50% of the time, this site won't even come through, I think I'm just gonna go to a "read only"

Most pumpkins/squash are 100/110 day plants. I'd try to replant them and by early august,August, they aren't growing well, go to brassica. Sure sucks that happened. They are not very tolerant to chemicals. How'd they do last year? Dammit, got a sever t storm coming. 3 days ago, praying for...

Pics taken at 7:15p.m. June 24. Was raining/cloudy all day till about an hour ago so I didn't expect much but they did grow an inch or 2. The pumpkins were in standing water 2 hours ago. Got just shy of 3" in the past 3 days. Edited too add, after 15 years of planting pumpkin, I never noticed...
