    Most farmers struggle to make ends meet. They work long hours and work when the weather permits. This year grain prices are below input cost. Many farmers have waited longer than normal to harvest because they can't afford to pay a fee to dry this year. If you're questioning why a farmer is doing something, it's probably because they have too.

    My set up is equivalent to a 5 year fishing for a pier with a mickey mouse fishing pole.

    Just caught up to the thread, congrats CLS, and I am sorry to hear adam. The blood looked so good too, I feel for ya big time. loosing him to some uptight neighbor really sucks.

    Quick update myself, had every type of deer under the stand imaginable today except a mature doe, which is all I can shoot right now(besides a fawn) Saw Mr. 8 point again, it looks like he got hurt pretty bad in a fight with another buck (pics in our team thread) If he survives this rifle season after already being shot, stabbed in the throat and run all over kingdom come by the neighbors hounds, then I think I am going to have to step up my firepower for next year. Maybe something like this [​IMG] :)

    I️ missed a nice one this morning man. I️ts especially hard when you don’t know what the eff you did wrong!!!! But hey there will be more bucks. The most important thing is to be in a tree or blind. November is Insane! Anything can happen. Let’s redeem ourselves.
