  1. It can take up to 2 years for a herd to recognize brassica as a great food choice. This is why I always start new to the area or new types of seed with things they know and like already. So if the deer in your area do not know brassica as a good feed...give them time. It's like when I first started soybeans...no one here planted them at the time and the deer barely touched them until just before leaf drop...Now watch out!
  2. What I should have underlined was the following, then you added these definitions : See a 6month Pause is exactly the same as a 6 month ban. Now as far as the wording massacre...she misspoke or used the incorrect term yes. Those two were here getting US funds to continue killing (fact) US personnel in US vehicles during US actions over seas. So there is a huge difference between using a wrong word or term and changing the date of your mothers death to suit a situation and imply that the president was at fault...
  3. Grape vines make great yard border fence lines...If not along an ag field being sprayed with glysophate or such controls same with berry bushes and patches...like black/red raspberries that need a support.
  4. on that preferred seed I was thinking the same thing...and if you break down the cost of each seed in the mix...well LOL...but hey guys don't have the time or I would assume patience to delve in to this as some of us do...There is mark up and then there is bend over and up...
  5. Man that actually looked good until I saw all that fat was on venison...any venison meat others have given me,I trim down to red meat only...and I do most of the neck as well, had that nasty roof of mouth thing. Dang! it had better be piping hot too or that gets even worse...in my experience at least.
  6. 117.50 for 25# of their similar mix then add shipping...it's worse than the preferred seed mix...I think I have hit nearly every site and seed/seed mixes...Some have actually sent me e-mails with coupons to save on shipping ,because I left the carts when I saw the costs..... Learned alot about some new seeds out there though..
  7. Only if you dont work at it...lawns take a lot of work...personally I prefer a really nice low growing clover lawn like a dutch white clover... ... and pick your trees carefully and you could have a nice shaded lawn and with set backs for bow..hunting when "mama" and the kids aren't looking look into planting your Dunstun chestnuts and some nice semi-dwarf apples ,pears.cherries now...get a hedge of blue berries in...just don't lime that area...BTW dutch clover does well on acidic soils...
  8. My brains about fried looking at seeds ,mixes...price and shipping differences...crazy on ranges of some..I compared Welter mixes to preferred seed her in NYS crazy: Wildlife Forage Feast | Low Maintenance Forage Seed Enlarge *Weight: 20# = $105.00 + NYS tax and dealer mark up if you don't pick it up Quantity: Description Summer, Fall & Winter Wildlife Forage Feast 40% Dwarf Essex Forage Rape 15% Hobson Forage Rape 15% Bonar Forage Rape 12% Improved Forage Kale 9% Appin Turnip 9% Pasja Hybrid Brassica Seeding Rate = 6 lbs. / Acre Welter seed: BIG BUCK BRASSICA MIX . . . . . . . . . . . . Per lb. $2.60 x 20 # = 52.00 +18.85 in shipping = 70.85 + 3.00 for under 25# + 70.85 no tax I believe By popular demand, we have formulated a mixture of our customers’ favorite brassicas in one special blend! Big Buck Brassica Mix is a mixture of Purple Top Turnips, multi crowned Pasja Hybrid brassica, Ground Hog Radish, and Dwarf Essex Rape. Excellent as a deer attractant and food source! Plant 7-10 lbs. per acre.
  9. You may want to contact these guys in NY the sell RR eagle brand forage soybeans...along the same line as tara,just RR.
  10. LEM I have to ask 70 is cheaper than what you usually pay?...Are you buying RR beans?
  11. Now lets just review this...one out and out lied,not about the death but come on, his mother died 3 WEEKS earlier...yet he blamed the ban. The other used two extreme nouns to describe an actual event. Now there wasn't a "massacre" on US soil,though how would you think fellow soldiers and the families of US soldier would describe any of the men and or woman killed and maimed by the bombs blowing up Humvee's these guys prints were found on?
  12. Interesting but don't forget the shipping brings them up to 70.00+ also are the shatter resistant?..My forage soybeans purchase in NY now shipping grew to chest height and that was on the area in this picture..in high deer browse.
  13. Winter exercise,you guys should know by now...I rarely take the easy route
  14. weather we had?!! I shoveled the drive,you know how big my drive is, until the arthritis in my hands couldn't take it. I got all done except the turn around and it snowed another 2" last night
  15. nice! http://www.bowhunting.net/2012/03/thermal-cover-and-deer/
  16. Multi purpose,I prefer to have something in the ground to fix nitrogen or not only smothering but naturally "chemically" suppress weeds,improved soil health and tilth, feeding animals and insects...honey bees is a big one. We are in a brutal wind area and I do not have no till equipment,fallow land here blows away or flows away on this hill. We watch the farmers top soil from his cut corn field flow past our place in a dark chocolate stream every time it rains. Then blow away in wind devils as it drys before he replants and it begins to grow. That and I am cheap the cost of fertilizer $$$ wise isn't going down and it does just one thing beneficial and very short term...It can also do many non beneficial things long term. I prefer something that will multi task and save me time and $$ long term. Choosing your plants wisely for this can improve and replace not just nitrogen but liming, certain insect problems and water issues. Now I do know that certain micro nutrients still need replenishing and will continue adding those. I laugh at the mineral salt block guys...I prefer legal feeding for antler and body growth..They benefit from it,...but I also benefit from their laying down what ever deer specific or general minerals they illegally place out...after a time those aren't used as often late season. Admittedly that is only reading knowledge ,but read enough places I tend to believe it. So in the long run I will continue research and learning how best to multitask to naturally improve and diminish problems while feeding the area critters... Besides learning, it's challenging, to see what new things I can make work.
  17. You did really?...when in doubt insert the time and Kindle....lol early morning ,after 5pm ,middle of the night...Kindle During the day usually either my mistake due to typing,phone call distractions and just tired. (well, that's a good example of tired and not redoing)
  18. If you look close you can see the be w over his eye,just below the ear...bear
  19. Chicken burgers, home fries, peas, and a tossed salad.
