id start early....but i do agree...its busy time for farmers here...planting and disking....and i know one farmer that is going to be chopping his first cut of hay as soon as the rain lets up....i always tease him and tell him his cows are too lazy to chew their hay so he has to chop it up for them lol.....i never heard of it till i started hanging around his farm and wondered WTF he was doin in the field as i was turkey hunting! lol..but he mixes choped hay with corn and all kinds of stuff for his milk cows...but a couple weeks things will slow a bit till hay bailing time....if i didnt know that farmer i wouldnt be ABLE to hunt!he farms COUNTLESS other peoples farms and will get me permission to hunt...and will tell me whose doors to knock on....where he sees the game....and when its rifle season...hes our drive leader!...he set one kid up and told him WHERE to put his archery tree stand...this kid only practiced like 4 times ALL summer with his bow...that morning from the stand the farmer told him to put there he missed TWO bucks and was back at the farm before 9am to tell us about it with 2 dirty arrows! lol....i cant wait for bow season....i plan to start this season..BUT i WILL practice.....so if im that lucky ill be calling him to come out and pick up my deer! lol
