Thank you so much! This is awesome advice. I've done a little scouting for doe bedding, but need to do more. Your plan should work very well to help me get a better understanding of how they are using the land. I've taken note of frequently traveled routes and times of day that I see the doe...

You probably won't find much for hunting cartridges that flat out "don't work" on game. Just purchase the correct type of bullet - HP or SP - and you'll be fine. Avoid anything that is intended for match shooting. OTM bullets are not designed to expand like a hollow point or soft point and...

I'm late to the dance for this convo so maybe you've made your purchase decision already. I won't repeat all the very correct opinions above, but I'll just offer that you may want to reach out to family and friends in the area that have hunting rifles in different calibers that would be willing...

Thanks for that intel. I’ll check out their site. Only trapped a couple raccoons. But I’ve seen mink while deer hunting?

I work in gun sales at the distribution level. So I usually have a pretty good beat on what’s going on at manufacturing and at retail. Thanks!

Yeah it’s permanent as far as I recal. No cutting or planting anything...but that’s not to say I won’t “bend” that rule a little. I’m willing to do some trail work and strategic stuff, but have to keep it pretty minimal to avoid issues.

That’s what I was thinking too. If I do the plots and screen then it’s a logical option if I can get decent traffic on the food. Thanks

Thanks Chainsaw, those are some of the exact concerns I have. I actually count it quite lucky that we were able to harvest the buck that we did last year. He made the mistake of coming through the swamp to Dad's rattle during the rut up by Stand 1. If not for that, we wouldn't have seen him most...

Below is a shot of my tentative plans, but I would really love to get feedback from y'all. I'd like to put in two small fall/winter food plots next to the woods (orange areas below) and probably screen them from the road with Egyptian Wheat/Switch grass (pink line). However, I'm concerned that...

This is "G3S", our target buck from 2017 that Dad harvested on gun opener.

Happy to be here. I've been enjoying viewing everyone's property tours and trying to soak up all I can. So without further ado, here's a short start to mine. A couple years ago we moved out of town and bought the SW 40 acres of a quarter section with three nice neighbors - all with homes on...

Hey guys - wanted to introduce myself and say that I'm looking forward to reading more of your awesome stories and info and sharing some of mine. My name is Jeremy. My family lives in central Minnesota on a small 40 acre hobby farm that we enjoy hunting on. We have a few critters and a hay field...

Could you please change my name to Docfather?
