Buck Forage oats v local oats

[jevans]

It has the work "buck" in the name.

Why is this even a question?

You have a point...duh me

[jevans]

I think I remember reading that the "buck forage" oats hold up better to browsing than the traditional oats. It may be propaganda, but, with all the time and energy and other expenses of planting a food plot, I'm good with spending an extra $40 or $50 on a 3 acre plot to get it right.

Of course they do, they’ve got the word Forage in the name. When this thread came up yesterday I spent a very little time reading about BFO, the only thing that I saw mentioned was that they could tolerate colder weather. Other than that everything else sounded like good ol advertising. With that being said, I have never had deer on any of our places browse an oat patch out of existence.

Got my food plot all tilled up and ready to go, this is pics before I put seed out and used drag to smooth it out and cover seed

Took day off from my office yesterday to get this done

Ended up just getting my oats from FB Grain elevator like always but did end up with 2 spots solely with purple to turnips (upper right end of this big plot is a terrace so other side of that is nothing but turnips and one small circle and strip to my right ) .

I put some ladino clover down the middle and on right side planted a strip of sugar beets

Now waiting on rain054703BE-1F59-47C1-B23E-8A6A0D5ABF01.jpgC5C36A1C-D959-4701-83AB-5166A6D4EAFB.jpg

Oh yea, we had millet here for dove field and ran a disk over it before dove season

Tractor I used has a 6' tiller on it, man that thing is sweet

[Catdaddy]

Looks good.

Ladino should be planted for afternoon shade(West side). I may be wrong but the left side looks like where the ladino should go.

Going to be expense to repair if you keep turning with it engaging the soil. I cannot bring myself to run my tiller in food plots.

Now you tell me LOL, will take note of that for next year


It is on the left side of the middle for the most part and not actually right down the middle however next year I will put it more on that side. In fact I may go pick up some more and add it to left side

Thanks for the heads up

Did it for years at old hunt club, this year all the plots he did were hit first with AP/scarifier plow . This place is very soft, in fact in that entire area I bet I only saw 4-5 rocks and got them before tiller hit them

explain, por favor

and steve perry has great hair.

[Silentweapon338]

I’m telling you Santee11 could wear a wig and impersonate him.

I have Steve’s pic pop up on the phone when He calls

[2thDoc]

so, you're saying santee11 has a big nose?
gotcha

[Silentweapon338]

That is the one thing that would give him away.

He does not have the nose.

But I think if you look at the later pictures of Perry the ones recently where his head is fat and and he has short hair he has had a nose job.

explain, por favor

.

Yep kind of curious too, this is what the tiller was purchased for (not mine but my hunting partner ) . ALL it will ever be used on is food plots.

[2thDoc]

rototiller? maybe it spins too fast in dirt that fluffy and messes up the clutch? i aint know...but i know i use mine and will buy another one if it breaks.

Going by the owners manual and mechanical knowledge that roller bearings typically used on the rotating assembly are not meant to be axial loaded.

[2thDoc]

how about explain it &@&# english

please

[HARV]

how about explain it fucking English please

Some shit likes to go in a straight line , like discs roto tillers, cultivator sweeps , bearings and such. Spinning around on the headlands while engaged at depth is a fine way to break shafts , shanks and wallet.
I quit lending shit out after a few repairs that I didn't cause came outta my pocket.

I never spin with tiller in ground, always pick up and spin around
