I prefer a wrist strap style after having dropped the hand held at the worst times... its a personal preferance. I would hand wash your strap, do this by dipping as much of the material into a solution of soap and water then scrubbing it with a brush while lying it on a board. then repeating as nessary until the scrubbing water coming out of it is clean. When done i rub in some baking soda and let dry.

usually spur legnth is an indicator. 1/2 in and under is usually 1 (jake) 5/8-3/4 in usually 2, 7/8 in - 1 3/8 3 over 1 1/2 4 or older... beard legnth doesnt work as deep snow and gravel ground will wear/break a beard so spurs are the way to go.

I would like to see coyote open year round same as wild pig.....

Had a sm bear come into the turkey call at 7am came to within 50 yards before it decided i wasn't a turkey! called in 2 toms about an hour later my brother missed the bigger bird..oh well always tommorow

Got my bow kill deerhead back

Nice pics! Didn't you know turkeys don't like the paparazzi!! best of luck finding one to pose for you!!

Some models have locks or a place to put a lock as well! I would camoflage it in best i could and lock it up! And check it fairly quickly don't leave it hang for a month.....

Don't think 'll need bug spray this year pretty damn cold and wet! but my gear is ready,birds located, and ready to go!!! Only 9 days vacation to hunt.. and get my plowing and yard work done! Best of luck to all this season!!

Ok Ranger finailly made it home, the shortest i've have grown is Vitality 66 day bicolor, and Seneca Arrow head bicolor 65 days. Still not sure what failure you had.. most any certified seed grows or were you just not happy with the flavor? oh both are by montisano seed company if you want them.

My deepest sympathies....

I've used no till on ground that was previously worked,tough to do through 30 year old sod. the biggest mistake people do when planting corn is putting the seed in the ground before the ground temp has had a chance to warm for proper germination! The seed will stay cold and wet and rot, warm and wet ok as seed will sprout but to wet and it will drown. Are you looking to plant field corn, or sweet corn?

Dave, corn loves old sod..and so do potatoes!! Get spraying roundup or genaric equivilent and wait till it dies and plow under, disk it and drag if nesassary. plant and fert. 10-10-10 is good, a soil test will tell you what of more is needed. If your planting this to eat (sweet corn) plant 6-8 rows and stager a week or so apart this will give you corn for about a month at peak sweetness. If your doing corn for deer, I'll get a lot of flack for this ..but if you don't soil test(and i don't alot) the plant itself will tell you what it needs,if turnng purplish it needs more potassium, and adding urea (45-0-0 all nitrogen) as a side dressing when plants are about 18in hight will give you maximum yield! The decomposing plant material you turned under will raise the soil temp and provide a lot of nutrients as well. Doing something is better than nothing! An acre isn't that big and the money spent on fert if you have to add more later won't be to bad. The ph level affects the plants ability to absorb nutrients the plants will still grow just need to add more fert to get max nutrition into the plant! Very important for a farmer not so much to a deer! Yes it will give more paletability to the plant and deer will eat that first but if your the only one planting a foodplot they'll eat it anyway!

I have a couple at home i'll repost their names when i get there.. but silver queen believe its 72 day comes to mind as well as a few antique varietes. What is unsucessfull with what your planting?

Nice!!

A fine example is the movie Red Dawn(they're remaking it by the way) invade the us? lots of people with guns.... and some pretty good woodsmen mixed in as well.

I can see how the anticiapation of seeing a bear could have happened especially if she didn't hunt them a lot. Everyone greives differently.who knows for sure only her.....

owl landing on weasel or something like that see the brown in focus bottom of pic...

I don't use rechargeables, i use either duracell or ray-o-vac both will give me 2 weeks below zero or 4 weeks above zero or about 500 pics and 500 30 sec videos in a cuddieback (originals not capture) and 2-4 weeks in the wild game ir i picked up to try..but i am less than impressed with ir rather have whiteflash.

I'll hunt the same as i live where i hunt, but not going to plow and plant,cultivate as many annuals this year. The 10 acre corn field is going to be put into clover that will save 80 gallons of gas just to plow it up,not to mentiion planting and spraying gas savings, over the next 3 years....Less mowing of trails and less joyrides on the go-kart and minibike as well. I'll walk to the creek instead of riding atv. Just cutting back where i can quickly.

a few small critters

A few new pics

some nice pregnant doe there! maybe a button in last pic?

lot of girdled trees in that pile.....

Wonder why the eye orbits aren't complete on skull? Rug looks great!!
