I seen days of thunder and cocktail this weekend. I cant believe I forgot that Tom cruise was so awesome, since I haven't seen a movie of his that I like in the last ten years. I might just have to throw on top gun to finish the marathon off.

Cuddeback has been a leader but now I think they are one of the pack. I don't have one personally, but for what my relatives and friends say you pay mostly for the name. Over priced and over rated.

That is about the best problem to have. I have new advice just keep after it and you'll get em

You were wrong, I did not want to see that. haha but not really

That sounds like a good problem to have, but TOO many deer never is. Like they said...Bigger plots or take the more does.

That is freaking hilarious!

Man I hate to admit it, but I am just entertained by jersey shores on mtv. The situation is something else and j woww is hot. Its shameful, but I love it.

my best shed is so small you have a hard time seeing it in a picture. tiny 8

nice find

How was the battery life on that cam. Anything like the up to 1 year like they claim?

At least you'll be climbing trees next year.

I had a .40 baby eagle and cant hit the broadside of a barn from 10 yards. I just got a taurus 1911, and am smoking a 2x4 at twenty yards. Only $549 and it is just sweet.

That is one angry looking deer. Gotta love those brows.

never heard of it, but I think I just ordered a pair.

Please tell al gore to spend some time in minnesota before he makes another million dollars on the lies he spreads. Round here we are closer to an ice age then anything else. There is still 3 inches of ice on the roads from before christmas, thats with the salt and sand the trucks have been spreading. I have a fire in the fireplace and am not worried about the natural resources I am burning cause I planted 1900 trees last year. What has he done lately?

I got the soft frame pack from cabelas. Its a little big for a day pack but sits on your back like a feather. Its got a built in bow/gun holder too. Costed $90.

Look for the deer with the biggest antlers of course.

Make sure you get a soil sample before you do anything! This will tell you what you are working with. Skipping this will reduce your chances of growing a successful food plot. There should be a soybean that would have no problem growing in new england. A place to start for the soybean questions is eagleseed.com. Look them up and find a dealer nearest to you. Call them and tell them your situation. They will tell you if it will work, and if it won't, they should be able to tell you a brand that will. You should be able to buy corn at a local feed mill, but you need fairly decent soil and a healthy amount of fertilizer to get a good crop and it will only attract deer later in the year. One suggestion is to split up your field into three sections. Plant one in a clover since its easier to establish and it will come back year after year. The second section can be planted in beans or corn, whichever your soil is better suited for. The third section could be planted in a brassica to help attract the deer after the first few frosts. If you had that half acre left over, you could look into a sorghum or winter wheat if you wanted, or just plant something that has been recommended to you, but you are skeptical if it will work (test plot). This is just a starting point. You need to put in some phone time with several people on each issue. Never take any one person's opinion as gospel, make sure you double check with a different dealer or company on each issue. Ga Luck!

At a commercial orchard around here, they cut off 1/3 of the blossoms in the spring. They say it keeps the tree from putting too much energy into a full mast crop and then having a down crop the next year. Otherwise, the fertilizer does help the tree but has little effect on the fruit. I would try to take the golden rod and just thin the blackberry thickets if possible.

thanks... appreciate the info.

I couldn't find the person who mentioned eagle seed soybeans, but I looked them up and made some calls. Even the independent seed guy I know is impressed with them. Has anyone found a minimum area a guy should plant in order to not have the plot over grazed after planting? 1/2 acre? 1 acre? Just looking for an experienced opinion on this specific soybean (forage... big leaf one?.) Also, is there anything else you guys have been holding out on in regards to seeds. I felt like a kid at christmas having found out about these beans.

Its just awesome when a young hunter connects. Nice deer.

Just got back from out of town and opened the x mas presents. The first time I wanted it was the x mas of 85' and have wanted it ever since. I seen imitations in shopping malls and after awhile passed it off as a childish wish. However, when I opened my present from the GF, there it was... an aunthentic first blood rambo knife. Its been awhile since I felt really surprised by a present. It may not be practical for gutting a deer, but if the police are after me for vagrancy... watch out cause its got the needle and thread and matches and compass in the handle!

Well, my uncle sat for the first time and about forty minutes in...he arrows a 180" 11 pointer (south central). Fast forward to gun season. His wife, my aunt, shoots a 186" deer opening day (south east). Needless to say they were not invited to christmas this year. HA HA. Just kidding, I actually invited myself down for next years bow season.

Like he said. It works, but if you strike up a battle royal, you probably won't get any fans.
