The family recently (two years ago this spring) purchased 100 acres it is an old tobacco farm which is long and narrow but opens up on the northern end. I have hunted this property two seasons.
The first was a wing it kind of season didn't get much scouting in but managed to kill a doe and two bucks one retarded deer and one that was a 4 boing one sided deer that broke his other antler off.
The following year I planted a late season plot which throw and grow which did pretty good for what it was and have always had a feeder with corn.
This year I am upping my game. I will be killing off weeds (milkweed ragweed etc) and tilling ground adding fertilizer (though not much is needed I have great dirt) and planting clover brassicas wheats and possibly turnips I will also scout it really well this year in the off season prior to hunting season starting with hunting sheds walking the property finding their trails I have pulled topo maps and satellite imagery I will be improving the trails as needed and hinge cutting where necessary to steer them where I want them to go. I have a nice saddle I am going to place an elevated blind that I will build in the spring.
Here is a photo of the property the stand I have been using is where the food plot and feeder is which is green
Here is my 2016 Buck
I'm pretty new at all of this so any help is greatly appreciated
