    Time to buy a new pickup?

    That new 1/2 ton Chev diesel sure has been getting a glance from me... 29 on the highway for a 4x4. I'm a Ford guy through and through, but legit 29 on the highway is something to think about. Could get rid of a work car and my current pickup and have everything all in one.

    Pheasant Food Plot Mix

    There are a variety of things you can plant up here for the birds. The PF stuff is damn good also. While I'm fairly new to the food plot scene, these couple of blends from Millborn seeds out of South Dakota have been spectacular for helping the pheasants year round, more impressive in the late...

    Yes sir. Was actually planning on getting some 4x10 or 5x10 OSB or plywood this week, but just looked, and Lowe's, Home Depot and Menards it's a special order size for about any length other than 8. Ordering later today and will probably be installing next week sometime. Bringing in around...

    New Pole Barn is Up - Lighting Suggestions/Options Needed

    Got my final LED lights hung up in the barn. When the project started I thought 10 would be good enough, which it was just fine, but towards the ends it was a little dark. By the end of the project I put 2 rows of 8 in for a total of 16, 8 foot LED's. Extremely happy with how it turned out and...

    Cattle on state land.

    There is a state poster required if the rancher is to have cattle on state land past a certain date, I think its Oct 1st. Got to see quite a few of these posters around the Washburn area on multiple state school sections. No hunting is allowed on those ground WITH the state poster by anyone, and...

    New Pole Barn is Up - Lighting Suggestions/Options Needed

    Not planning on insulating it so the overhang would be more for visual pleasure than anything. Yeah, it keeps moisture away a touch more but not that much more. Simple landscaping takes care of that issue. For a foot overhang on a building this size you can add another $10,000 or so. Roll up...

    New Pole Barn is Up - Lighting Suggestions/Options Needed

    Bring enough beer over and I think I can find some room! - - - Updated - - - This was the only builder out of nearly 35 quotes I got that does this setup. Almost every single other builder does a pole every 8 feet, and a rafter every 4 feet, and a few builders did a pole every 9 feet, with a...

    New Pole Barn is Up - Lighting Suggestions/Options Needed

    After chatting with quite a few people about lights I did end up going with the "cheap" amazon 8 foot LED's. I bought a 10 pack of these for $209. They have a 3 year warranty. I bought 10 foot cords for connecting them. We didn't have time to trench in power so these are just going to be run off...

    New Pole Barn is Up - Lighting Suggestions/Options Needed

    Update: The boys finished up the building yesterday. 6.5 days of total work from when the first pole went in the ground. Extremely nice and square, sliders are tight, heavy duty walk in doors, and she's beyond quiet. We will see over time how it holds up, but I'm more than happy to give this...

    New Pole Barn is Up - Lighting Suggestions/Options Needed

    Not planning on heating or insulating it anytime in the coming years. Maybe 5 years down the road but that's a maybe. With the cold that's why I'm def. going with some sort of LED so I don't have to worry about the temp.

    New Pole Barn is Up - Lighting Suggestions/Options Needed

    Got our new pole barn/horse arena frame and rafters up last week. Building will be completely done come this Friday. I am looking for options as to what some others have done for lighting in their pole barns, thinking LED's are the only way to go these days. Barn is 60x130x14. Here's what I'm...

    Wife’s 2019 Bull Moose - Bow Kill

    Voodoo, you must not be too familiar with ND moose/Canadian moose and/or butchering. There were multiple other bulls taken this year in ND that yielded well over 400 lbs of deboned meat. I work with 2 guys that have both taken good bulls within the last few years, one got 425 lbs, and the...
