Sorry you had to do that. We did a behavioral euthanasia today at my clinic on a dog that bit people. I don’t have tolerance for dogs who bite people. Life is too short.

Is Spike the dog or the squirrel? What happened? Sorry for your loss. You’ve had a rough time with dogs.

I thought of you immediately.

Got my soil tests back. The first three are the 40 acre field divided into thirds. This field has flood irrigation. The next one is the lower 32 acre field. Final one is the field behind the house.

What is this white stuff on the ground?

It appears that an elk has knocked my camera askew. Rude.

We’ve had a very dry November - only .5” back on Nov. 9. As a result, food plots aren’t looking too great, but I do think that a few years of no-till planting is helping. I drilled this plot in the day after the .5” of rain, then temps dropped below freezing for a night. We’ve been warm since...

I fly Charleston to Chicago to Billings then rent a vehicle in Billings to drive 100 miles. I leave Charleston at 6 Am and can be at the farm by 2 PM.

Congratulations. Beautiful buck.

I’m not going to be able to spend much time out there for at least a few years. I’d rather build good human relationships at this point than worry about deer I can’t hunt. Eventually I’m going to turn that bottom 40 acre field into a deer paradise. Once that happens, I don’t think I’ll have...

What do the other three walls look like?

You are crazy.

Not much to report. Gun season started a couple of weeks ago and I think the neighbors are hammering the deer. From what I gather, the does get shot when they jump the fence, but the bucks know they are safe on my land and stay on my side of the fence. Deer activity has decreased significantly...

Congratulations! Awesome.

He’s gone. Maybe he will eat some mushrooms and fall 50 feet out of his tree stand.
