Reality Hunt Club – Season 2, Webisode 12: Supplement Feed

Thursday, July 5th, 2012

In this webisode, we finally got deer eating out of our supplement feeder on a regular basis, so Chuck and I decided to try some supplement feed. Watch this video as we discussed changing from corn to high protein feed. Hopefully they will like it and will benefit from it.

Reality Hunt Club – Season 2, Webisode 11: New Electric Fence Design

Monday, June 11th, 2012

In this webisode, we are trying a new electric fence design. This design is called the offset fence design. We failed last year with our traditional 5 strings design so we decided to try this design this year. Watch this video as we discussed installing this fence design around 3 acres of our iron and clay peas. Contact me if you have any questions.

Reality Hunt Club – Season 2, Webisode 10: Dove Field Preparation

Thursday, June 7th, 2012

Last year we planted it, BUT the doves did not come. We had such a severe drought last year, the doves were just nowhere to be found. Well, Chuck and I are at it again this year, planting about 4 acres of brown top millet and sunflowers. Our goal once again, is to have our kids bust some doves. Watch this video to see our plan and also see what has already gone wrong.

Reality Hunt Club – Season 2, Webisode 7: Road Trip: Meet Mike Wheeler of Wheeler’s Whitetails

Thursday, May 24th, 2012

Chuck and I went on a turkey hunt with Mike Wheeler of Wheeler’s Whitetails in Kansas. We knew he had a ton of turkeys with a near 100% success rate but I have to admit we went with an ulterior motive. You see, Mike grows and kills some of the biggest bucks in the Midwest and Chuck and I wanted to learn some techniques from him. We wanted to see if these techniques could be applied on our hunting lease in Georgia and brought to you in Reality Hunt Club webisodes. The interview portion of this video is over 17 minutes long so heads up on the length. The first half is talking about Mike’s outfitting business with the second half being all about his tricks and techniques. I hope you guys enjoy this video and we will be trying some of his advice in our management plan and will bring you our success or failure in implementing some of them.

Reality Hunt Club – Season 2, Webisode 6: Supplement Feeders

Thursday, May 3rd, 2012

This year we decided to put a couple of gravity/nudge feeders on the club. We shopped around but could not find one we liked, nor could afford, so we decided to buy all the components and put them together ourselves. After we put them out, the majority of the deer have yet to figure out how to use it, so as of mid April, we are just going to run corn in them. Maybe next year all the deer will be using them and we can use a high protein supplement feed. Until then, we will wait until they figure it out.

Watch the video as I go over all of this and show your some trail camera video of our deer interacting with these feeders.
