We have a farm tractor, plow and disc implements but some of the smaller food plots could get done while someone's working on the bigger equipment if I could get something made.

    Re: Box Blind Build (lots of pics) Damn, you beat me to it. Been constructing my own and should be finished today. Yours looks awesome. Mine will be an elevated platform this year until I can afford to enclose it but, for now my ground blind will sit on top. Keep up the good work.

    Re: Compound Hunting Bow Mathews vs Bowtech vs Hoyt Buying a new bow is like buying a new vehicle. You do your reasearch, go to the lots and compare stickers.
