  1. Purell to clean up and remove.oil.from it and then benadryl or another anti histamine...
  2. Rye grows very quick and deer eat it fast, 45 days is good time before to allow for germination and growth. Of course you will be competing with soft mass then as well.
  3. Between the 3 I'd Go 1st the Ford 3000, 8n. Ford 1900.. the 1900 is a glorified lawn mower that can take a mid mount deck.. the other were designed as farm implements by Ford, not a Japanese sub company....
  4. I'll add a 7 to your list ,simple wiring harness not much electronic safety crap that can fail and make it a pain to trace out an issue.. 8 n simple motor/ transmission..
  5. My oldest cam still works well but pain to develop the 35 mill film.. a 1990s trail timer with camera attachment. My last cuddiebacks were on way out and I gave them away. Switched to brownings. Love them so far. 2 years only issue I has was moisture in 2 of 12 of them and I solved that by letting sit in sun then using silicone on top seam and screwholes on back what actually was leaking idk but simple fix.
  6. Very true ,I've called a dog in 3x, once on bear I shot with bow, and 2x for deer, went much further than i could track with no blood. I exhaust my own skill and then call in to have every chance to recover the animal. I stopped watching hunting shows in the 90s but no scent control is perfect ,pioneers and Indians did it that way as well.fred bear didnt spray down with scent killer..
  7. Anytime you have to wear a 5pt.harness it's a young dumb person toy...
  8. For example an 8n.. note no hp for.motor just drawbar and pto claimed and actually tested..
  9. Old tractors were rated by hp on drawbar. New are by motor.. farmers buy by hp on drawbar as motor hp is misleading , yours shows 30 hp but is really only 23
  10. All depends how you write it off all in one year or over period of years.. my friends father bought a new gun for Turkey, vest,calls, ammo, camo, ect.. figure 1st bird cost him about 75 bucks a lb. After that they were next to nothing a lb
  11. Gf killed a 13pt non typical between hunting camps while everyone was out deep in the woods...
  12. If you get ph up high enough it will not grow as conditions are not right for it.. bonus your clover grows better as well
  13. Some of the biggest buck lay close to barns and houses..people just walk on by on way to the woods....
  14. Lime ,more lime , mow ,lime, mow Or spray, lime ,mow ,more lime, mow
  15. 35 to 40 hp is minimum i would look for, 2 wheel drive is fine if your fairly flat terrain. Loader is nice but you will need counter weight if your not use to tractor, Geared!!! Not hydrostatic Ag tires !!!! Not industrial or turf.. if you want a lawnmower those are tires for it they dont belong on a tractor!! Look at gallons per minute on hydraulic pump the higher the number the more you can lift. That being said ....If you doing small plots 1/4 to 1/2 and brush hogging you may get by with a Ford 8n. A 2 bottom plow , small disc harrow and brush hog. They are common and are 25 hp or so and low to ground for woods work . They are a good starter tractor. Jubilee, 9n , are new slightly more hp and available. Old internationals if converted to 3pt hitch like the 300 or 400 utility are 30 hp plus and are effective and have wide front ends lower to ground and more stable..if not converted for 3pt the 2 pt quckhitch equipment can be hard to find or you can find deal where everything comes with.. . If your not sure what your looking at the Nebraska test will give you tons of data on older tractors and show true hp tested on. Draw bar and pto... https://tractortestlab.unl.edu/
  16. I'm find doing that , just driving this time . Lol
  17. Started the same way. Use to feed corn then dec.said no feeding so planted an acre.. and that was the beginning of this problem..... now I seem to never have enough time to do what I want..
  18. Got turnips in and blind set up, made wooden frame inside it as them damn poles collapse far to often. Especially with early snow. one plot left to work up and plant and I'm done for year...phew
  19. Marking territory good spot to know as it will return frequently on a schedule like clockwork
  20. My actual deer scouting was done back December January February. Now is just playtime, playing with cameras, I dont get excited untill end of sept.to see what is actually.around. stand locations are pretty set after 26 years on same land. Just replacing / rebuilding blinds,stands. And hang ons get hung now till sept.. then I stay out of woods till bow
  21. Well you always have cnc to fall back on. I think your better off trying to become a law officer than co. Seems co get wierd after awhile seeing all the bs inside the same walls. Dec was hiring for academy.. perhaps that would suit your wanderlust better..
  22. I agree i drive a car back and forth for work great gas mileage all year even winter, the guys down the roads all live in city and have monster pick ups, they ask how I can drive through all the snow in a car. As they have trouble getting up our road in trucks.. I tell them they need to learn how to drive if they cant make it up road with 4x4s..
  23. Hmmm might make a nice tree stand umbrella... just not sure about color..
  24. I truly believe many big bucks just die of natural causes ,never taken by a hunter and seldom seen. I've seen many along the railroad tracks that if they were shot , you would definitely hear about it.. largest ever was in west field bunch of hunters driving a grape vineyard, huge ( 180 plus in ) non typical bases like coke cans belly crawling in ditch next to tracks headed back through the drive. Hunters oblivious and flipped me off when I tried to yell what was happening out the window of locomotive...
