Being it's for a dove field, I'd probably work the ground. I think they like a clean field of dirt between the rows best. Good luck!

Should we be concerned it will jump the species barrier and kill wolfs and coyotes?

Seems like canopy would keep everything down.

The 5 gal buckets with pex or pvc work about the best and nearly impossible to hang a lure on for fish attractants. Also use the metal cage from 275 gallon totes, sometimes ziptie them together like a pyramid.

And did I read that one of them ate deer antler velvet?

It's flat. I doubt their slaughter is the reason. Kill them before they die is not what I call "management." This is common sense management (Indiana): Dear Indiana hunter, Indiana DNR has confirmed the state’s first positive case of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in an adult male...

The open field doctrine stems from the constitutional principal that "open fields" don't offer the same expectation of privacy of one's home, which most would agree with. Many cases are made by Conservation Officers patrolling private grounds. Baiting cases, following up on tips, etc. The...

Kraut is simple. The way I was taught years ago, shred the cabbage, I use a kitchen aid with a grating attachment. We would put an inch or two in the bottom of the crock, add salt, and tamp it with a wooden baseball bad to "bruise" it. Add about 2 teaspoons of salt to each pound of cabbage...

I ran a 2WD Allis 160 for several years for plots. That old iron is heavy and aids in traction. I would make sure you fill your tires with beet juice or fluid for added weight / traction. A loader takes a lot of weight off the rear wheels when you pick up a load, which hurts a 2wd some. I...

I'm worried about NEMO. Working ground in February is never good. Not much in the way of rain.

I use bolt cutters or angle grinder.

I destroy enough stuff using it correctly. I just buy bar oil. My dad used to use used motor oil, but you could tell it wasn't working as designed.
