Numbers have dropped significantly here and spreads are being picked up and moved north as fast as possible. Still a few groups a day but nothing like 2-3 weeks ago.

Hope to wrap up 30-40 acres as balage, but will rotational graze the rest of it which ends up leaving a half ass cover crop before no tilling beans into it.
Used to leave it all as covers, but I think the grazing is actually working out better for the ground than leaving it. |

Planted it once. I bought a quarter that some shit ass organic plowed the ever living **** out of and then a bunch more. Took it over after wheat harvest then the neighbors custom cutter burned it off. It was going to blow forever so I planted the rye after the milo I drilled burned the **** up. That shit was tough as a boot. There was some volunteer wheat that I didn't kill. It all winterkilled and drouted out but the rye just wouldn't ****ing die. I was impressed. It was terrible and didn't get what I needed done but it was the toughest shit I've planted. |

My dad is trying to plan a bear hunt for him and I in Minnesota for September....extremely excited if it can all come together.
Was just curious if anyone here has hunted bear and if so, what was your experience like? Stories, etc.... |

Was a good youth hunt weekend... Sorry we missed the Chiefs game!!
The deep freeze has ~39lbs of shoulder, loin, and ground meat. One shoulder (!!!!!), the bullet hit a rib on the way in, totally blew-up the heart, and exited bigly through the far shoulder, we saved and ground a lot of that shoulder... The doe in the pic had its kid with her (look at the head looking from behind), so my son chose not to try to take her. I get it, but she was huge... I never argue with the shot not taken, it's just uncool, but we had a .30-06 with us, and if lucky he might have been able to take both at ~50 yards. But again, he's awesomer than me! Next up, he's going to get to learn how to make a European mount.. Last edited by GloryDayz; 10-28-2018 at 09:50 PM.. |

Been in stand all week. Does and fawns and small boys. Big fellas are out there. Not many shots this weekend by youth. I dread rifle season and the red army of walmart hunters.

We start at home with learning the rifle and the hunting process, take it to the range, study and walk the property plenty before the season, and we have fewer questions on game day. While they gain a skill (you hunt, you know what I mean), I gain even more time with my own son, away from the pressure of our hockey team, and in the great outdoors. And he gets to drive the Mule and the big-red-truck around the farm, so he's giddy. |

If we get another (or need another), the 5 sq ft deep freeze is pretty full. That being said, I'd be happy to tell the wife the new deep freezer is from Santa!
But alas, the boy wants a new scope. But like I told him after the shot, "I'm pretty sure the one you have is is working." Ha! |
