    Welcome April

    Beautiful but I'm sure you are sick of it.
  2. Clover does not grow well in the summer. You would be better off waiting until September to plant clover. The heat of the summer will not let the clover grow well. You will get weeds taking over the plot. Get a soil sample now. If you need lime you need to get it out soon. It takes time for the lime to do its job in the soil. The soil test will tell you what the proper fertilizer and lime you need. You will also need sunlight, without this your plot will fail. Roundup the plot in August. Plant with the proper fertilizer in Sep.
  3. I tried and they only have poast at 225.00 for 2.5 gals.
  4. Anyone know where I can get Poast Plus 2.5 gals cheap. I have found it for 150+ on e-bay but thought someone here may have a better supplier.
  5. American Joint Vetch and Alyce clover. As long as you bushhog it once in the summer the vetch will take off. Try this in one plot and you will plant everything next year with this. The vetch is expensive but it is worth it and mixed with the alyce clover you dont plant as much. I cut the plot back to 8 to 10 inches in heighth after about a 1 1/2 months. The hotter it gets the more the deer like it. Good luck and try a small plot or take my word for it.
  6. That depends on how much land you have and if you have enough cover available for the deer. I cant see how you can have too many but then again it can break the bank. I would suggest to plant as much as you can afford. The expence part hit me so I planted several in Durana clover that will grow summer and fall and is suppose to last for 5 plus years. All I have to do with these plots is cut and maybe put some fertilizer down from time to time. I will try different stuff in the rest of them. Hard work will be rewarded. Tim:D
  7. Ok, This sounds like a good deal. What about an airiator?Some companys offer this at an extra cost and is it worth it? thanks
  8. They only got what I feed them. Durana clover overseeded with Biologic full draw. They loved it.

  10. I need to buy a sprayer for my 4 wheeler and dont want to break the bank. This will be the first one for me so I dont know anything about them. Cant anyone lead me in the right direction. I will only be spraying 5 to 6 acres during the summer along with my yard. I thought about getting the one below because it has the ability to spray 15 ft to the right side. I want to spray the edges of my plots to kill the privet that is slowly taking over my plots. Is this a good one? This is from the Moultrie site and is there most expensive model. Easily spray hard-to-reach areas of fields and fence lines directly from your ATV or utility vehicle with Moultrie’s complete line of sprayers. 25-gallon capacity Spray wand included Spray wand with 15-ft hose 10-ft and 30-ft boomless sprayer included On/Off control valve to control 10-ft spray heads Includes "right of way" spray head, which sprays 15 feet to the vehicle's right side 3 gallon/minute, 50 psi pump Easy "set on / lift off" design Fits ATVs and utility vehicle Built-in tank graduation scal in each hopper for accurate chemical mixing Pressure gauge for pump Tank drain valve (compatible with garden hose threads for emptying unused tank contents back into storage container) Heavy-duty hoses, brass valves and fittings for long life and corrosion resistance Heavy-duty pumps with chemical resistant valves and diaphragms Ratchet straps included for securing sprayer tanks Sprayers are powered via wired remote control that plugs into vehicle's DC outlet Pump strainer is located outside of tank for easy cleaning, if needed $169.00 Thanks, any help would be appreciated.
  11. I use the HSS pro series. This is a light harness and very easy to get into. I dont want to be fumbling with straps trying to figure out what goes where in the dark. Also I forget I have mine on. I find myself jumping in my truck and I still have it on. There are several good makes out there now. The best advice would be to go to a large hunting store and see if they will let you try on a few to see what feels good. All of them can save your life if you wear them. You cant go wrong with the HSS, Summit, Gorilla harness. Sorry if i missed your favorite but I think these are the best and in that order. My 2 cent.
  12. Mine is a small DVD. It fits in the small spot on my dvd player and computer. this is the small circle in th bottom. The DVD only says DVD but it is much smaller than regular DVD movies I play. I have the DCR-DVD92 Sony camera.
  13. Re: Get them while they last. Cheap feeders I have the type that the deer have to hit the rod to drop the corn or soybeans. It does take some time for them to get use to it but it saves alot of feed in the long run. I always put a pile of corn under it until the deer learn how to make it drop. They will hit it while eating the corn pile and it will drop so they will learn. I have gone more to the tripod feeders now so I can get the deer to move during the day. With that type of feeder they can come anytime day or night mostly night and eat.
  14. Re: Moutrie Cameras?? Here are some good deals on the 35 mm. I use to have 4 of the 35 mm moultrie until I started making my own. They worked good for me but it is a pain to have to wait on the film to get developed. In the long run you will save money with the digital. But if you want to get your feet wet then this may be what you want. You will go digital sooner or later. check out this link and scroll down to the cameras on closeout. Several picture on my webshots page below are from my old moutrie cams. http://www.moultriefeeders.com/catalog.aspx?catid=ScratchDentCloseoutsRefurbishedUnits Good luck.
  15. Re: Tree Ladder I had a simular problem with one of my ladder stands. I had to chip off the thick coating on the outside off the part that slides into the other one. Then I put triflow on it to keep it from rusting and let it air out. If this doesnt work e-mail gorilla and ask them.
