Sorry guys I know there is a big hog problem down there and I would be the first to help you out cutting them down. I just think putting out a video so all the bleading hearts can see it is really not so smart. If you ever wanted to give politians another reason to support gun laws like we have then this is it, and now you have all the animal rights groups supporting them. I have never hated any animal so much that I could shoot it and leave it to suffer until death.

There are so many Canadians who would love an opportunity to hunt your hogs, great business opportunity for some people, keep it cheap, supply the guides and work out the legal details and you are off to the races. I've wanted to do that since I was a little kid. I grew up just outside a US air force base and I remember the guys who came to our home talking about how much they missed hunting wild hogs and the stories they told.

Find a way to get rid of those videos.
 
Dumb question. Once one of the shot hogs dies, do the others eat it? Hogs will eat most anything but will they eat their own or leave it to scavengers?

No Sir, it's not a dumb question.

............. Yes, they will eat ANYTHING !!!

And they are mean as hell !!! I have got the scars on my body to show !!!
I hunt. And I hunt hard . And I hunt the hell out of wild hogs !!!!
Been deer hunting many times where a shot deer falls and gets back up and runs, not matter how well you place the shot. ( all you can do is put a bullet in the right place, you done your part ) >>>> Anyway, on the blood trail you come up on your kill, and have to fight and/ or shoot hogs. For they have done beat you to your deer. And don't you ever think they will not attack.
They will do the same to their own. They kill baby everything. Hogs are very smart also.
When I am blood trailing. I put up the big rifle and go for the .45. In the thick
swamps a rifle when you trailing is just in the way. You need to have something you can get to quick, something you can move around quick, and something you can move quickly WITHOUT hanging up on vegetation ... for the hogs are quicker you !!!! You just have to out-smart them !!!

I have seen a pig that was wounded from another boar in a fight and the rest of the pigs where eating it while it was still alive. We killed two of them that day but many more ran off.
 
Need some advise.
These ivy vines has taken over this tree. I have tried every herbicide at the farm.
We have even cut a two foot section from the ground up, from the trunk, thinking we were keeping it from being feed. NOPE !!!
Now, the only thing that killed it on the tree trunk, was the ICE STORM we
had a few weeks ago. Or should I say, hope the ivy is not playing possum.
I am seeing "new growth" coming in from the ground.

Think the genetics of this ivy has accumilated a resistance to the herbicides.
I've even went to the county agent, he says use a certain herbicide. That don't even work....
Any and All suggestions is appreciated !!!

Two guns, whats the name of that vine? Is it kudzu? Have you tried roundup ?

No, it's not Kudzu. Thank God !!! (pictures of Kutzu below)
Mississippi hills and bluffs in Natchez, Ms., has Kutzu next to the river ....

And yes, I've tried Roundup and many other herbicides.

Think it is some sort of English Ivy ....

Two Guns,
I have some problems with this English Ivy and I've done the following. On an old rental house I have it grows up the old rock foundation on one side that's about 6 feet high them proceeds to grow up the wood lap siding. I wanted to leave it on rocks but would cut it off the wood several times a years. Got tired of that and just started spraying Roundup on it where the wood siding was and then down about 6 inches. It kills the new growth but not the lower part.
It has also been growing on a couple of oak and hickory trees in my back yard and they say if it gets real heavy on the limbs it will break them down. So last summer I got a ladder and went up about 15 feet and clipped and sawed every vine off. I plan to go up and clip the new growth every year to keep in control. I'd spray Roundup, but I've got some nice hybrid rhododendron below. If one was to try to use some kind of poison on the roots they go so far down it would kill the tree from its roots. Now one problem we'll both have as the dead vines rot they'll start falling on the ground.
 
How many members know about the HHO Generators for vehicles.
( It is basically a small device that uses electricity to release hydrogen based gas from water called HHO, which is then directed into the vehicle’s air intake system. )

You might want to start looking into this if you put many miles on a vehicle ....

It does work. It does increase horsepower. And the fuel mileage will blow your mind....
Works on all engines ....

This video, is just one of so many on You Tube. This will help explain.

I wore a T shirt yesterday and cleaned off the feed pads yesterday cow stuff and garden stuff done.. and sprinkling of snow on the roof today...Gotta go feed cows and am procrastinating...cold and 27 brr. The weather..... trying to tell us something? collie
 
Around 5 below this morning..Roads dept snow plow came around about 2:00am..
About 6 inches of snow to clear yesterday from the 18 driveways I maintain. Had to go back out this morning to clear the 'wing back' that the plow leaves behind...No sign of spring in the air in these parts. Maple syrup season will be late arriving this year.
 
14 degrees-F this morning with about an inches of sleet with about an inch of snow covering the sleet. Arkansas like many southern states is not equipped to maintain wintry roads. This morning at 7:30 the highway was a rough ice rink.

Sooooooo, setting in my easy chair reviewing NetTractorTalk. Really tired of the easy chair after five days of stomach virus.

Stay warm and safe my friends.
 
Came back in from one round... snowing lightly and dropped to 25 11am... not this cold in forecast... toes cold...getting back out the good winter socks..
