Re: %$#^&!!!Forecast.!

Yeah its dry. About tired of hauling water.Just got finished discing down a food plot and it was awful....the dust just wouldn't leave. On the upside, my smallies are starting to bite. :grin:
 
We got 2 inches here yesterday, over 2,000 in town still without power, but South of the Cumberland River here didn't get any in lots of that area

My water holes just have a little water left and are loaded with tracks form all the deer coming to them. Looks like a chance of rain thursday though!
 
Mine is fairly dry but I'm going to plant on Saturday no matter what. I just don't see another opening for me. Got about a quarter inch yesterday according to weatehr and a little last week...hopefully I have some soil moisture to get going and rain comes soon.
 
Most of our plots have been limed, disked, fertilized & cultipacked. Just laying in wait until significant moisture in forecast. Could be weeks, could be a month...as dry right now as it was in early June. However, the Gulf should be getting more active in the coming weeks, so it'll change sooner or later; patience grasshopper. Good time to do other work right now.

Just hate feeding turkeys
 
I put in all of my brassica stuff. Dont worry about birds getting that. Hope to get it to a little start then throw my wheat and oats in over it sometime soon. Surely this hurricane will bring us some rain?
 
And this is why I don't plant until September, unless the weather patterns indicate a wet August and September.

And because you dont bow hunt! :)

EXCELLENT point. If you want those food plots productive by bow opener, you do have to plant before Labor Day.
 
Re: %$#^&!!!Forecast.!

We usually plant Labor Day weekend every year and they are pretty well established by the opener. It all just depends on the rain
 
Well I can tell you it has been pouring everyday in Tamoa for about 2 weeks. Afternoon pattern just like every August. Hurricane is shifting north and east. Would just as soon not have a hurrricane, thanks.

well,it hasnt in middle and mid west Tn,its very dry
 
Good for killing weeds though. Yesterday, I looked at some of the ones we turned over a couple of weeks ago and weeds are fried.
 
I normally don't plant until October so I'm not too stressed but all our fields have been turned and are pure dust bowls. We're going to have a magnificent dove shoot because of all the Johnson Grass we knocked down.
