well it wasnt my best trip out to the hunting ground.. hadnt been out there since the big storm came through, and i have a lot of work to get done!

13509515_10101868533735505_1834499236_o.jpgMy hunting shack now resides on the side of the hill laying on its own side..


13563664_10101868533895185_346874456_n.jpgmy ground blind next to the food plot isnt looking so great either.


13563666_10101868533630715_1260212369_n.jpgthis is our road to our big food plot that we work and plant and as you can see most of the road has washed out.


13566189_10101868533820335_1451897643_n.jpgin that mangled up messed is a tree stand that used to be nice and straight and actually quite comfortable!


13565624_10101868533935105_1116719084_n.jpgmother natures way of saying baiting deer should not be ok?...


13553377_10101868533391195_1025061515_n.jpgthis is the rest of the road to the big food plot of ours this is supposed to be a cleared out road right to it but there are about 4-5 trees blocking it now, luckily none of which have tree stands in them!


13499775_10101868533211555_2142873529_o.jpgand our big food plot, its gotten plenty of rain and is actually looking pretty good, and quite green!


13530802_10101868533960055_1598242541_n.jpgand my 3 apples trees i had planted down in my food plot are looking great and none of those were smashed, so i got some work to do, but at least the plot and the apple trees are looking good!

Yep!! Chalk up a few more installments of "Sweat Equity". Mom nature can be a bitch sometimes.

im hoping ill be able to get into a skid steer with a grapple bucket to get most of that stuff cleared out of there, but i have to wait until the crops are harvested at least to the one food plot its wheat so it should be off pretty early and i can get in there and get it cleared out and get my fall food plot in before its too late, just a pain in the but i did most all of that work all last year and the very next year mother nature decides to give it her all... oh well.

Use all that deadfall to your advantage and create more funnels and pinchpoints

ya i was looking at that a bit there are a few spots that will work but a lot of the stuff we hunt is big chunks of trees, so i would have to get pretty lucky on how it fell but i just need to see how the deer start using different trails because a lot of the trails i have stands on have been blocked now so its back to the drawing board, lots of camera works and probably lots of chainsawing
