Sparetime

These are the names I thought would be on this list and come to my mind.

Dicenzo Miller and Michael Davis MSU

Dalton Hilliard LSU

Stephen Davis Auburn

Rectifier. On all my Foremans they are on the frame rail inside the RR tire. When my screen goes out and no start, I change the rectifier.

Northern Adams County and northern Concordia Parish.

Saw 4 rack bucks behind a doe last night locking the front gate at 730. Good to see but still getting plenty of slow reports from hunters. Most trail cam pics of bucks is middle of the night close to thickets.

9 food plots and 8 feeders

Dang that is a lot of feeders compared to plots. No wonder you pissed. I would drop that number to just 2 feeders and don't put them in your food plots. Use them for inventory only, then hunt the areas around them to catch them in daylight.

Sounds like your deer don't need to move unless you hunting on 5k acres plus.

Lockdown is full swing in SWMS/NELA, small bucks on the feed during daylight and does/bigger bucks at night. The first rut hit hard 12/25-1/1 which correlates dead on with the moon/estrus. So if I were wanting to take PTO it would be starting next monday with the second estrus moon coming on. Some of the best chasing I've seen in years was Christmas, that usually means not many of the herd came in, so next week should have plenty of maiden does coming in that are dumber than the queens.

1. Does all land have to be under the same ownership? We own most of the land but lease some portions that neighbor us. Need this land to qualify for Tier 2. NO. IT ALL HAS TO BE UNDER THE SAME MANAGEMENT GROUP UNDER THE TIER. OUR LAND IS NOT IN ONE PIECE BUT ALL TRACTS ARE UNDER THE SAME TIER.

2. Does land have to be directly adjacent? We have some ag land planted in soybeans but the property lines are about 900 yards apart (parcel between them that we do not own). If this land were included it would push our total to over 1000 acres, so we would qualify for Tier 1. NO. ALL LAND WILL BE INCLUDED IF YOU OWN/LEASE AND HUNT ON IT. SO TIER 1 SHOULDNT' BE A PROBLEM.

3. Can an extended season be grated under Tier 2? Or only Tier 1? TIER 1 ONLY AND WE USE THE EXTENDED PART TO USE ALL OUR DOE TAGS UP. GREAT PROGRAM AND LA DMAP IS MORE LENIENT AND EASIER THAN MS PROGRAM

We are in Area 1 and it is easy to enroll, I would think Area 6 basically being the same will be easy also. Good luck.

Normally I hunt with 7mm mag but At times I will pick up their youth model rifles and hunt with it myself.

7 alt 8 all day. Was the 6.5 of the 90s that was getting all the rage and flying off the shelves, but because it is handy and effective.

Also, three of my family members got tired of lugging there magnums also, they all are big dudes and they only tote 7-08.

Fantastic caliber. Order ammo and be done with it.

Had my first personal experience with a Cripplemore this year, let's say the deer was 10 ringed and there wasn't even blood in his bed. Worse than 243.

I agree with the number of pintails I saw on our place this week in NELA, I was shocked to see them already in numbers. The report looks just like what I saw, half of the ducks were Widgeon and Pintail.

I second the ATN Thor 4 when you are on a budget, mine has been fine for 5 years. Not gonna ID much over 300 yards but for the price it has been great.

Definitely go thermal, I have Xsight night vision and a thermal....we always end up fighting over the thermal.

Holy snickies!

I would not want to hold 100 gr. of Retumbo explosion ever....
