Set a bunch of stands on our southern Illinois deer lease Saturday afternoon. Worked our butts off, but willbe glas we did next fall, plus saw a bunch of deer and turkeys.

Got home today and did a controlled burn on a couple big patches of prairie grass. Calm winds and warm, dry conditions made that go real smooth. Food plotting is right around the corner.

We're busy hinging, cutting, planning cuttings right now...already pulled all our stands for routine maintance and check ups (which we all should do). Will be hinging/cutting and working in the woods clear through spring plantings, then only things that will take me to the woods will be cam checks (during summer don't check much though), hang stands in July, and fall plantings...the journey recommences October 1st, 2013...
