Default RE: I got my Oats in.

Just look over the pics again and noticed the plot to the right had less "green" in it....what's going on there?
That half is planted in extreme and it is coming up slower.

Farm Hunter,
Very observant. Yes that corner is the best and you are 100% correct about the wind.

As for the high deer population you are also 100% correct. I know many do not agree with the WI DNR but on our property there are too many deer. We purchased this land 2.5 years ago so this will be our 3rd season. Four of us last year took 6 does and one buck off this 80 acres. This past May my Dad was at the cabin for a day and saw 4 does with a total of 7 fawns. Looks like all the deer we shot were replaced. We are in the CWD Management zone here which means we are earn-a-buck but we can earn one for every doe we shoot. That's right last year we earned 6 buck tags. We let many smaller ones go and took does for the freezer. I am hoping for a doe kill this year of 7 or 8 and 4 bucks. I was at our cabin about 3 weeks ago and saw 14 deer on about a 8-10 acre hillside. I know there were other deer in the area.

I will be out there this weekend so I will try to remember to get some updated pics to post soon.

Thanks for all the replys.
