RE: Clover disapointment
Hog, I'm with you. I'm a member of the NAHC, so I called them and they put me in touch with a guy who claimed to be the assistant editor. I won't mention his name. He said that NAHC doesn't recommend any specific planting. He didn't know where Rebel's info came from, maybe a story in their book that listed that as the writers perference.
He didn't offer much info but I wanted to know why they would choose that as their plot of choice. Sounded strange when I read the post.
SO many of the writers are trying to learn about foodplots and get more work by writing about them because the topic is hot. I think they are learning as they go and will use anyone's opinion in their work. The editors at the magazines don't know Jack#*^% about plots and can't proof them for content. They basically just print what comes in. I've seen a few stories, where the info was so outdated that it should have been printed 20 years ago.
Enough ranting, BYE.
