food plot is starting to pay off(updated more pics)
« on: June 03, 2014, 06:19:10 PM »






just a few of the boys coming in.  last year I planted half acre of imperial whitetail clover and 3/4 acre of imperial whitetail extreme. I also started putting out 30/06 plus protein minrels.  that year I had tons of does and few lil bucks. one fawn buck had 3" spikes! first time ive ever seen antlers on a spotted fawn that didn't resemble acorns.

this year the bucks are looking bigger and there are quite a few more.  before long my new honey hole may just be my back 40 :tup:
sure is fun watching them develop.  im quite happy with the herd health this year.  in years past I used bio logic food plot mixes and have never seen much action.










few of my fav bucks coming in.

Glad to hear!  I'm still in the planning stages of planting one, not far from your neck of the woods.  In fact, I think you gave some input on a previous thread I started about it.  The time may come, soon, when I need to pick your brain!

Awesome!  :tup:  I can't wait to be able to do that someday.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is who you actually are while your reputation is merely who others think you are.
