Well guys, time to bring this chapter to a close. Went out to the property about 2 weeks ago & was surprised to see For Sale signs at the gate. Long story short, the owner had decided to sell & move on, but "forgot" to mention it to me. Was able to talk with the new owner & will be retrieving my...

The study on antler size & how it relates to does choosing mates was also interesting.. There is another podcast "Hunt The Land", with a MSU wildlife student & also an wildlife student from Auburn. Covering southeast habitat management & hunting.

Be thankful !!!!!! I was just out yesterday looking at the farm & was supposed to be moving stands but my partner skipped out. Sweetgums are notorious for stump sprouting & usually twice as thick as before. What was nice rye & clover plots in May is now knee/waist high sweetgum sprouts..

My opinion has always been based on the “Fair Chase” guidelines. For a game animal in recreational hunting, where does night vision or high fences fall? I understand where OP is coming from, but like others have said I doubt you will ever see a state legalize NVG hunting for a game animal. If...

The EZ 380 is actually larger than the standard Shield.Not much, but enough to make a difference-Its basically between the Shield & the new 2.0 Compact.. I would go with the Bodyguard 380 if I wanted to stay with S&W. The LCP & LCP 2 are great pocket guns. To the OP, I carry a Shield 40, & even...

Very nice!!! I want to get this done before spring. Definitely think it'll help along with dropping a few more trees.Yeah at that scale it seems very similar to Marcus Lashley's "Bowstand burns"..

Yeah can never be too safe. My cousin & I were cutting the other week, I heard his saw cut off suddenly, he had finished cutting one tree & was still holding the saw by the trigger guard,dropped it by his leg. It was still turning enough to catch his jeans, cut them & take a 3/16 gouge out of...

Yeah I would love to drop some of the bigger ones, but the LO is tree happy. I’ve tried to explain the benefits of thinning, both for the timber & wildlife but it is small victories. The soil for most of the higher ground is sandy loam,changes to mostly sand as it drops to the river & creek. I...

Good point. Looks like I need to get in there with a leaf blower or call it an exercise day & break out the rake. Lol! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

This is the area view- it slopes down to a large ravine, mostly hardwood. A small “stand” burn could be possible I believe, but not a large one. The trees are cut from ankle/thigh height. Originally the intention was to add more horizontal cover to the area more so then increasing the browse...

So I had posted these in my land tour thread, but figured they would get more views here- This is a roughly 1/2-3/4 ac “random cluster” I cut Feb ‘18. I have not been in this area since last spring, walked it last week & was alittle disappointed at the lack of new growth. The stumps &...

So we closed out our 2018 deer season without tagging anything else— with a baby & work I just got back down this weekend. On the bright side, According to the LO, looks like the offer that was made was a bust.. he thinks it was either a potential drug enterprise or illegal immigration setup...

Looking good brotha!! Work is definitely paying off for you.I would say that bear is probably going to hang around long as the corn is there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yep,I've demo'd a purple & had several customers that swear by them.
