Jerry-hes living on and around my farm south of Starbuck (Pope County). The farm borders a big timber, guessing he beds about 150-200 yards to my West, combo timber/swamp. Surprised nobody got him?
This buck is around as well, not sure what age he is??

looks like he is gored in the next or shot at a terrible angle.... Also known as the Mo Angle. Too soon? That is a great buck! I figured since he got the deer, it was ok. I better tread lightly!!!! Still gotta say thats the storied ending of the decade.

Ok things are looking even better now... I need to swing by your place and get a sandwich bag of soil so I can colonize my place with your soil microbes. Imagine how big them damn deer would be with some gypsum!

I love the wide and flat frame! I bet he looks neat from the front.

Imagine how big them damn deer would be with some gypsum! I am no longer following your whacky ideas and am going back to the standard of JPS wisdom. I have putting gypsum on my collection of racks and head mounts and they ain’t growin!

You can't just sprinkle it on, you have to rub it in.

I've read that gypsum on sandy soil is a waste of product. Seriously...

You can't just sprinkle it on, you have to rub it in. I just figured it out, your rubbin on the wrong kind of racks SD! There are google searches that can help you figure it out. Try "big racks" or "perky racks", but you've got to include the word nude in your searches for it to work right. For the best insights on the matter also include GIF in the search.

I've read that gypsum on sandy soil is a waste of product. Seriously... It certainly can be. If a guy has sandy soil, he really needs to know what kind of lime he is putting on. Sandy soil is low in Mg and if calcitic lime is put on to get pH up, that imbalance will get worse. This is why I seek out dolomitic lime for my sandy topsoil and am very careful with the amount of gypsum I put on each year, cause that calcium could creep. So far it hasn't. What I'm putting on it about what a year's worth of crop takes up. A guy should really test his soil at least once to see how much S is retained before the next application. I've been doing well with 1 per year with a CEC of only 8. I started with practically zero ppm S, and aim for 20. I finished up this past year with 13 ppm when I went to spread more. I could probably cut back a bit, but my Ca isn't so high that I've got to worry just yet. Where I dug my water hole, I brought up some heavy clay, and of course it was much higher in Mg and the pH was fine, so I put 3x more gypsum on in that spot than my sand. I'll repeat again each year until I start seeing the surface soil loosen up. I wouldn't seek an alternative to gypsum. This one doesn't acidify your soil, and if you're spreading nitrogen or phosphorus of any kind, you're gonna see your pH start to drop and have to pick it back up eventually. I'd love to never have to lime again, but we'll have to wait a few years to see if that's possible. This coming year, I'm planning gypsum only. Will test again in August to see where I'm at.
