Somthin about blending in with the decoys..layin on your back..and havin geese everywhere..so fun..im not a gun guy but that was great..live entertainment
Ive had the pleasure of growing up and living on a 300 acre "postage stamp". Its 170 acres of tillable land, and 130 acres of hardwoods..creating a food plot would be senseless ..normally the whole 170 is full of corn..this past yrr was peas till mid summer then oats. The oats were cut and bailed 2 weeks before the opener of bow.
The fields have been empty all winter. Theres nothing to even dig for..once the snow melted deer came from outta nowhere and yarded up on the tops of the hills.
I guess my question id ask there eruss is...if a deer had the ability to eat more durring the winter with less work to get the food...or walk a quarter mile to dig in an open field for a few hrs only to walk away with a few morsels..which would the deer choose?
If you put a feederin the woods between water and a bedding area..you might not see a deer all winter..for some thats a bad thing..
Influence children? Ever sit and watch the news with a kid that understands whats being said..here our local news is from buffalo..woohoo..my son asked me..dad why do they hardly ever show good stuff on the news..wouldnt people rather watch somthing nice?...that got me thinkin..
I wonder if the news didnt report the bad stuff..kids would learn that those kinds of things dont happen..
Does that make sense?
Im willing to bet the news..and perhaps tv itself is the biggest influence to kids..and theres some pretty scary crap on there..
Just a thought
I like muzzy..ive used 3 and 4 blade..no mechanicals..askin for somthin to go wrong.

Travel to feeder then eat feed
Travel to plot, dig, then eat plot..am i missing something or does it equal out?
Bucks starve themselves durring rut(horny bastards) if theres an early snowfall...they start the winter in trouble...
You will never get me to believe food plotting isnt a form of baiting..if you do plot..more power to ya..i would if i could..but its the same dam principal..just because you put time and effort into it...and call it plotting ..thats different...like i ask b4..what are you plantibg for..do you have livestock..is it for human consumption..and where are the stands around the plot?
Last yrs 5" with the bow..you can see the neck breakin wound..just a 3 blade muzzy..10 yds..small butwith the bow..cool 2 me..last day final hrs
