Weekly Harvest

Happy Friday all!

Summer is about to get into full swing at my house. The Kid is out of school and many weekends of travel are about to start. The summer is always difficult to get in as many hunting/prepping for hunting activities as I’d like. I have made a little progress in narrowing my locations to scout for my Ohio hunting trip this fall. As of now it looks like I’ll be scouting those locations at the end of the month. This weekend I’m headed back to the farm for Father’s Day to check on my food plots, mineral stations and might even climb a tree with the climber and get some target practice in from my stand.

But first, I’ll share this week’s round up of the best deer news the world whitetail web has to offer!

Always Stress Land Stewardship: Stewarding your land is about more than managing vegetation on a property to grow bigger bucks.
