    This was the first year I had permission on this property. I have only hunter public land before this season and the whole habitat improvement idea though i've researched and dreamed of before is relatively new to me!

    Like most hunters, we don't own thousands of acres, or have access to equipment. In this webisode we want to show you how everyday hard working hunters can plant a food-plot with basic tools available to most. For a more detailed description check out this Blog!

    Great video. I too did it your way; howeve, I just sprayed round up and showed up 3 1/2 weeks later. everything was dead and I raked it up and tilled away. unfortunitily, my plot burnt during the drought. I replanted in august, but I haven't been back. I'll look this weekend.

    it took roughly two hours, but it would've been shorter if it wasn't so darn hot out!
