[QUOTE="rem270, post: 3761356, member: 1700"] Got to thinking about this thread while checking my cam before i hunted this evening. Got in my blind to make sure it was good and snapped a few pics. This whole field was mowed last year. This year i decided to mow the food plot down and just mow 2 strips coming to the plot. I mowed 2 strips around the perimeter of the field and the 2 coming to the plot are 15 ft wide sections.I really like this way instead of mowing it all. When i walked up this evening there were 2 does bedded just 5 yards from my blind in the tall grass. The trees you see in the back ground are a pine thicket with a power line running through the middle of it.

It's a pretty narrow field that gets even narrower where i'm standing. Where i'm standing is about a 20ft wide by 100 yards long. My dad mowed it all and you can tell what we did with the rest. To the left of the pic is a big gravel pit where they like to bed. To the right and also behind me in the pic are a creek and across the creek are crop fields every year. This is a heavy travel route from bedding to food, or vice versa.
