You really got to love MSU's deer lab. Their podcasts are outstanding. They are able to take some of the latest scientific research and make down to earth presentations of just how they relate to practical hands-on deer management. Over the years they have debunked a lot of "common knowledge"...

Back when I first started planting eagle beans, my partners thought I was doing something wrong when planting them because they never got more than a few inches tall and never canopied. I put up a Gallagher-style e-fence up around about 1 acre of the beans. Those inside the fenced area got...

That is what I've been doing in years when I mix herbicides for all of my burndowns. I actually used interline (Generic Liberty) myself.

My .22 is an old Marlin Golden 39a. It was the first firearm I purchased with my own money. It was used from a hardware store.

Marestail was the initial reason I switched from RR beans to Sunn Hemp and buckwheat. When we had our first pine thinning, we got a huge crop of Marestail in the thinned pines that invaded our food plots the following year. Planting the RR beans made thing worse. I figured I'd focus on...

Welcome! I was a bit skeptical at first, but seeing another relevant post, I'm beginning to believe you are real, and the avatar is a joke. :)

I'm primarily a hunter. My style of hunting allows me to have a solid rest for shooting. Dry fire practice is a great demonstrative tool, especially for new hunters. After years of shooting, I've learned to generally ignore recoil. Over time most of the rifles I use have acquired muzzle...

Thanks!

Back when I was planting forage beans, I was using Eagle brand. The cost and availability of these was one of the factors that caused me to stop planting them. I ended up switching to a mix of buckwheat and sunn hemp for my spring plant. One of the problems I had was how many acres I needed...

That is where I just retired from!

What part of VA? I'm in central VA (zone 7a).

I guess what I was trying to say is that when I played with settings, I was able to get pictures closer to what you see in the marketing than those i posted. I don't really need those ad quality displays for fishing. At least at my level. I can find fish with no problem, even in brush piles...

When I first got it, I watched some videos that showed you what settings to tweak and why. I was able to get much closer to the advertised images, but I found it was not worth the effort. Lots of factors affect the picture quality like water clarity and such. I find it plenty good enough with...

@catscratch, I'm not sure if you are interested in side imaging. I did not do any side imaging yesterday and take snapshots. It looks completely different on the screen that the picture below. I recorded some side imaging last year. I loaded that into Autochart on the computer. So, the...

These next two pics are different downed trees: @catscratch, I hope this is what you are looking for.
