Thanks...and I will do just that! Lots of work to do still...but the dividends will (or should) continue to pay off as we move towards Fall/Winter. Cheers! Brigg

My farm doesn't "hold" bucks year round...I do well to hold does that fawn and attract mature bucks. I plant 6 -8 acres of plots that will pull deer from surround CRP as I typically have the only AG around. It is always interesting to see what I will pull in from year to year. So far....these...

Nutritionist - You say that you are selling this blend called "Fortress". Id be very interested in learning more about it. As in (A) does it do well when broadcast or does it need to be drilled and (B) where/how does someone purchase what you're selling? Thanks in advance, Brigg

I have owned and loved quite a few different bows over the past 30+ years....but currently I am extremely pleased with my Elite Energy 32. Before that I shot a Hoyt...before that a Mathews....and before that a High Country, a Browning and I started off with a Bear. Like most things in life...

OkieKubota - VERY Nice!!! I liked it very much too! I had only used it for 2 years...and had enjoyed very good success even though I barely knew what to try to do in planting it. Now...this year has been a different story!!! I have managed to get a stand of Sorghum/Sudan going....but it has...

Jeff H - I guess that seeing a buck sniff the decoy which I know has Evercalm on it, yet not run away alarmed could be interpreted as a positive response. I tend to believe at the very least its not a negative response, which is what I am trying to avoid by not using any other bottled deer...

I have used it on decoy to potentially help mask any human scent that might have transferred from my carrying out to the field. Over the years, i have pretty much stopped trying to use any scents like Doe in Heat, or Dominant Buck urine etc.... Call me crazy...but while I have seen it work on...

Thank you all for the kind and warm welcome! I too am certain that this is a "home" that will be great for learning and sharing...yet lacking the attitude that once prohibited me from feeling comfortable in sharing my own experiences. Its good to be here! Cheers! Brigg!

I am not familiar with anything that works well. Kpshet12 - I'd be interested in learning what you have tried and/or done in the past. It has become a veritable plague around my part of South Central Illinois. Have you enjoyed any success at all with any method killing this scourge?

Smallplot... Great thread BTW....I remember this post from the other site as well! I am curious...if you know anything about the availability of EWG for next year. I have only attempted to plant plot-screens now for 3 years (this being the 3rd). My first 2 seasons I used EWG with a high...

WOW...I am happy to have found this place. I guess I am kind of late to find out. Like many folks ( I assume) I was not an avid poster on the afore mentioned QDMA forum, for more than a few reasons. Not the least of which was the feeling that typically my perspective was not really welcomed...
