    I'm not really sure at this point. I'm new to food plots. I'm thinking whatever best food for October/November.
  2. Taylormike
    You guys pretty much all have same thoughts. Can't go wrong with Ford tractor. All I need, I believe. There are some in excellent condition on marketplace too.
  3. Taylormike
    Wolc123, that's good information. So you think any of those older tractors will work then. I obviously want to go cheap and I know they're out there for 3/4k all day.
  4. Taylormike
    You don't think upgrade a little. I would prefer live PTO and power steering. That's really all I need.

    Hey guys, serious question. My Brother and I are going to finally venture into food plots for next season. What tractor would you guys recommend? Keep in mind, it can't be a newer compact. I'm looking for old model to pull implements and brush hog. Pull disc, bottom plow and possible tiller. No loader necessary. Mainly cheap work horse. Thanks.

    I pee in mine every time I walk pass it. I have some great luck doing it.

    I'm in the same boat, can't get out until Thursday. I hope bucks are still busy cruising.
  8. Taylormike
    I think the chase is the most difficult. Seeking is my favorite time. Bucks walking through the woods, they'll still respond to calls and scents. Once they are on a hot doe, you can pretty much forget about it. It's going to be a great two weeks....

    Very interesting. I'll definitely stop. I'm skipping this weekend for Halloween weekend with wife and kids. Then I'll head back to camp. Thanks for the info.

    I've been to that plaza every weekend. I stop for a coffee and then Machias outdoor store. I saw that place, what is it?
  11. Taylormike
    I always base the start of daytime activity, seeking, doe entering estrous on deer/car collisions. I haven't heard of much yet. I drive the 400 every weekend and haven't seen but a doe or two dead. I think we are a week out.
  12. Taylormike
    I 100% agree. Do you know how many days I've said to myself, "yes, 5mph wind, sunny calm and I see little to nothing". I actually have been taking mental note for about 5 years. The windy days seen to increase buck activity, especially during the day. Until my personal observations change while in the woods, I'll be convinced of this. We have been taught to believe otherwise and IMO isn't accurate.
  13. Taylormike
    Same boat. Soon enough, soon enough.
  14. Taylormike
    Yep, I'm going to miss all next weekend so time is flying by. I won't take a small buck yet but I'm really looking for a doe.
  15. Taylormike
    I respect this but I've passed 3x this year with the same situation. Now I would like to make meat. No more passes on my end. She's going to leave them very shortly anyway.
  16. Taylormike
    As you know, it's getting to that time of the year where it doesn't matter that much. I understand to a degree (no pun intended), but they'll start moving soon. Might be good this weekend!

    My brother literally says this every weekend we are at camp. He's like, "look around, nothing for miles, imagine the smart ones that are nocturnal and avoid all evidence they even exist.".
  18. Taylormike
    I've used these before and they can and do create a lot of moisture. However, just crack a window if need be. This is how I would do it, you'll save a lot money.
  19. Taylormike
    What an excellent question. I've always wondered this.
  20. Taylormike
    That deer isn't going to die from blood loss, he will die from septicemia. I don't think you can track him by blood. He should bed down again, but it'll take 8 or more hours at this point. Go in the morning with dog if possible.
  21. Taylormike
    Might take 16 hours or so, it's fatal 100% if you have bile on the arrow.
  22. Taylormike
    I think you have this, blood looks good. I would go out after dark, 8pm or so. Give that deer plenty of time, he won't be far IMO! Good Luck!

    I don't post often, but when I read Phantoms post I had to. Also, this is my favorite time of the year, so it's time to get started anyway. I'm with Robhuntandfish; this is probably the most ridiculous thing I've read this year. First off, the guy is a master archer, owns a shop, won competitively but just quits because it's tough. Something isn't right, and if it is, I'd find a new shop, mentor, and archer to learn from. It sounds like he discourages rather than encourages. I don't know him but it sounds like his enthusiasm is gone.
  24. Taylormike
    I'll have to check these out. Thanks for the heads up.

    3 blade, only because I believe they are little bigger cutting diameter.
