Trying a few 8' wide strips of tall Milo to breakup a large food plot. Tilled and broadcast 13 days ago with Urea and hit it today with Plot Dr.
Rain tomorrow.

Strips of Corn are up and RC Big Rock SG is jumping out of the ground.

Timing worked out on getting the strips of corn in the ground and fertilized today just as the rain clouds opened up with only minutes to spare.

Another landowner getting ready to drill corn into the mowed strips of rye grain and crimson which all point directly at his box blind.
3 rows of corn per strip separated by 8 feet of green food.
Some rows of greens will be brassicas, some grains, and might even play around with pumpkins in one of the rows.
About 1 acre total surrounded by a simple hot fence.

Can't tell you how many times I've seen this already this year.

Landowner in Kansas gets it. Two years ago Eric grabbed his Stihl 194T chainsaw and took out the canopy by hinge cutting almost 2 acres of part of his barren pass thru woods. Deer sign was crazy when he showed me last week. None of his neighbors are doing this.

While hinge cutting with a landowner in Illinois, his wife found this monster while shed hunting. Not exactly how you want to find them.

Had the pleasure of working with one of our nation's finest recently. Chris served as an army ranger who was seriously injured at point blank by an IED in Iraq. He's now working on a cattle ranch in GA where we spent a day creating bedding areas and barricades for the landowner who hires wounded veterans to get back on their feet.
Chris wanted to try his hand at hinge cutting a big maple. The landowner is in good hands.
