  2. Re: Sickly looking doe for this time of year Thats normal for a doe feeding 1 or 2 fawns for this time of year. Not only are they recovering from winter, alot of the nutrients were going towards the fawn(s) and when born , most of the nutrients are being used to create milk. Most of the time when a deer is sick it will show in there coat , it will look roughed up and this one looks very smooth and full.

  6. Re: Bowhunter Rights Coalition, PLEASE PIN! MUST R [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] They will never take our guns or bows or rights to hunt , there is too many millions of dollars each year spent in this country in license and permit sales alone that each state gets, not to mention the billions of dollars in hunting and shooting gear spent each year. What about the thousands and thousands of jobs, the television shows , magazines, and everything else related to the hunting and shooting sports. Its going to take alot more than a couple of looser animal rights groups to stop hunting in this country. [/ QUOTE ] Sorry but I need to ask what planet are you from? Look at England and Austrailia! Look at what happened there, no hunting and no guns is going crazy over there! Think it cant happen! Think again! Hunter numbers have been slowly falling for years. Every year hunter numbers go down, it will be more and more the anti's will win! That you can bet! By supporting a group that supports hunting is the BEST way you can garrentee your rights! PERIOD! [/ QUOTE ]You can't compare those countries with this one there is no comparison at all. Look at the number of people who hunted over there compared to here, and what did they hunt , rabbits and fox? Your crazy to say that hunter numbers are decreasing, thats insane look at the facts. You can check license sales from just about every state and you can clearly see that hunter numbers have risen enormously over the years. Alot of states have actually expanded hunting seasons and added new game and allowed to take more of that game. I see hunting in this country going nowhere but up in popularity. If hunting was decreasing why would this wonderful website have a hundred times more members than they did 5 years ago?

  8. Re: Who\'s plantin\' what????????? [ QUOTE ] It really doesn't matter for me because every time I plant something, (spring or fall) I always get a drout so it will all die anyway. Still I keep trying. I have busted my hump doing soil tests, spreading lime, spraying Round-up and creating beautiful soft rich seed beds. My soil PH is at 6.5 to 7. The ground has been fertilized multiple times over the last 4 or 5 years. I have planted everything from alfalfa to chicory, to rye grass to oats and the same thing always happens. I plant right before major regular rain is expected and then nothing comes. The seeds sit there for weeks waiting for any real rain. Then a little rain does come, the seeds germinate, sprout tender green little seedlings and the plot looks beautiful. That only lasts a couple of weeks because then the entire plot dries up because of the lack of rain. The plants never get to the stage where they have enough root development to sustain themselfs for weeks and weeks without any measurable rain. So here I am again, faced with re-planting those same beautiful seed beds for the eigth time. I feel like Charlie Brown trying to kick that stupid football. When will I ever learn. Still I just can't help myself because I so bad want to have a nice green food-plot. I know the soil is great where I am planting, I know the PH level is perfect, I always start with a bare seed bed with no weeds, but those poor little seedlings just can't go for long without regular water. Anyway, I'm going to punish myself again and re do the plots for the 9th time now with some Whitetail Alfa-rack plus, and maybe I'll try their Extreme. I have used their No-Plow, Secret Spot, and Alfa-Rack in the past and I also planted Buckforage Oats once. Needless to say all of the plantings suffered the same fate, early death due to lack of moisture.
