We have a small 90 acre farm in NW Ohio... this year my father decided to cash rent it because it was time for corn rotation. A lot of farmers in our area planted soybeans and we're the only corn fields around for probably a mile or so. It's the only thing that keep the deer in my area. Hunted the corn fields hard all fall and got my buck (best ever) , now I've been taking my boys (9 and 7) EVERY chance we get. On the one end of the field I planted turnips between the rows Labor Day weekend and they looked awesome! (6-8" tall already) Once the corn comes off they get more sun and grow even better. Ohio gun season starts Monday, then we have a bonus weekend in December and a muzzleloader season in January. I was going to do everything in my power to get those kids a deer (buck or doe, didn't matter) before the end of the hunting season. I drive home tonight from work and there is a 4X4 John Deere and a large fall tillage chisel disk finishing up the last couple of rounds. Both corn fields are underground, my turnips are gone. Dad said he decided to let them fall till the whole farm... to tell you I'm livid is the biggest understatement I can think of at this time. We had the prime area for the next month and a half, now... nothing. We have never fall tilled our corn stalks! I asked him about his grandkids hunting and he didn't know what to say. I'm usally not a emotional person, but I could cry! I understand it's his place, but geez... he knows I've been taking these kids out every chance I get and I love deer hunting! OK... enough boo hoo.. just had to vent. Sorry guys. Jeff
