    dirt/field prep for trees?

    How many acres are we talking here? 40? You may be looking at $200 an acre, or more, if you want to plant native grasses out there. In those examples, I suggest a well timed and planned spray regimen as being far more cost effective.

    dirt/field prep for trees?

    You can burn anything you want, if you own it. At a minimum you will want to call the rural fire dept to let them know your plans. If you talked nicely to them, perhaps you can plan a training exercise. They kind of did that with the airport earlier this summer. As far as it staying smooth...

    dirt/field prep for trees?

    1. Clay, not something you can do squat about as it will revert back to what it currently is for tightness in no time. Leave be and choose your trees accordingly. 2. It would be amazing if you could do drip, and of course it's possible. It just may be more expensive and difficult to design...

    Boat trailer issue

    Yep, Mid Dakota Wheel Alignment on East Divide. They have done three axles for me. Different boat trailers. ;:;banghead - - - Updated - - - Ahh, who am I kidding. You own a boat trailer long enough and you will have axle problems. To the original poster. Any time an axle is bent enough...

    Who knew there are yellow chokecherries?

    Seriously, I had never heard of, and probably just plain ignored, yellow chokecherries until I heard of them today. So I have questions... How do they differ in taste from the standard dark chokecherries? I have no idea if the three(?) trees I have are ripe, or even productive enough to pick...

    e collar recommendations?

    http://www.collarclinic.com/ I believe they may still refurbish older collars, new batteries...etc. Otherwise, I am no help. I run a GSP, so I need the GPS.

    insulated or non insulated?

    I'm a non-insulated kind of guy down to about 25 degrees. For the life of me I cannot understand wearing insulated boots when it's warmer than 40 degrees. - - - Updated - - - We clearly have feet cut from a different cloth. I loved my non-insulated and vented jungle boots when in the...

    2018 skeeter WX2090

    I think the thing I would really look at closely is the transom and lower unit. Here's my thinking...if someone pulls a boat up on shore they often lift the motor enough so the skeg isn't stuck in the mud. A wave or two over the back and now the boat is sitting 12-16 inches lower in the water...

    Soybean welfare plan

    Because government has long chosen winners and losers. That's how politicians get votes.

    5.6 ft box pulling a fifh wheel

    If'n a guy is pulling 10,000 lbs and above without trailer brakes, well...I don't know what to say about that level of dumb. My brakes work just fine. - - - Updated - - - Really? A guy pulls the speed limit in a properly setup fifth wheel and you're going to go there? Obviously there's a...

    5.6 ft box pulling a fifh wheel

    What this guy said. - - - Updated - - - Get an F250 with a 6.5 ft bed and don't look back. My 2009 pulls my 32(?) foot fifth wheel and the boat like nobody's business at 75 mph. I'd be crawling down the highway with your proposed setup.

    Keep Big Fish or not, don't judge!

    I will be on Sak holding a "Catch a Fish for Grandma" day...err, weekend. Let's see, me + K + 4 kids = 60 fish for a two day limit. Not sure if Grandma would turn down something like that if we were so fortunate, and I surely wouldn't begrudge her a few fish dinners. - - - Updated - - -...

    Transducer cable?

    Those things look like a sock. I'll keep them in mind, but for the time being I have a couple pair of goat skin bitchslappers that fit very well.

    2018 skeeter WX2090

    The only issue I can reasonably think of is wiring. Wet connectors will eventually dry, but they may get some corrosion. I had an older Lowrance LMS that would get intermittent after being left out in the rain. Finally found a connector on the wiring to the puck that would get the smallest...

    Tax dollars being put to good use.

    I came within about 18 inches of doing that over by Underwood last summer. Missed a herd of about a dozen that couldn't have been anymore tightly packed if they were in a cattle trailer. If'n I'd have hit one, I'd have hit them all like bowling pins. All I saw were white rumps as I drove by in...

    Transducer cable?

    From the little I can see up in there, the cord goes straight up the left tube (original transducer mount and livewell pump is attached to left side tube where it disappears from sight as it goes over to the right hand side of the Toon. On the right, I can't really see anything and that is...

    Tax dollars being put to good use.

    Something like this should be a prime candidate for that excess oil money we wanted set aside for outdoorsy things. It's not like those extra oil trucks didn't come with a direct cost to wildlife's lives. These crossings (and bridges) work, science and the occasional hunter have proven it...

    Transducer cable?

    I think I am just going to run it like this for the upcoming weekend and tackle the removal of the tin next week. I could splice the cable, but then I would always be wondering when it was going to fail, regardless of how much waterproofing I do on it. The second transducer will have to go in...

    Whoa! That's a great frigging idea.
