Book Reviews

At last I finished the Second Edition book the other day. I found it to
be easy to read and understand. It highlighted the important parts of
doing a food plot that will succeed. Weed control almost keeps me awake
at night just thinking about them. The thought process of what to plant
and when was very helpful. Again it is like having someone walk the
property and tell me what to do. In talking to some friends about the
book the same thing came up always. They wanted something that they
could read and understand without having a degree to go along with it.

DEER FOOD PLOTS MADE EASY
Written by Dr. Judy McFarlen

Deer food plots ebook cover top image-

If you are thinking about starting a food plot or have a food plot you
would like to improve I know how daunting this task can be. If you are
like me, when I first started out, you searched the internet,
subscribed to forums, read magazines, purchased books and DVDs looking
for a straight forward reference book to help you answer your
questions.

You Probably Already Have The General Gist of Food Plots From Your
Research.

* IE: You already have given consideration to where your food plot
might be located.

* Know you have annuals, perennials, biennials to choose from.

* Are aware that some species do better in the North and some in the
South.

* Are aware that pH is a big deal when it comes to food plots


But Do You Still Feel a Little Unclear about Where To Start, What to do
First and What to do Next?

Deer Food Plots Made Easy covers the whole process from start to
finish.


Avoid Poor Location Choices
Avoid planting varieties that are not suitable to your area.
Avoid planting varieties not considered tasty to deer.
Avoid pH and soil nutrient errors.
Avoid plot failures due to weeds.
Avoid destroying your plot through ineffective fertilizer or
inappropriately applied herbicides.
Avoid the trap of believing there is a "magic seed."

The First Edition gives you the strategies and the Second Edition shows
real plots taking advantage of these strategies.


In this portion of the book we discuss:
-plot placement relative to prevailing wind patterns
-natural habitat features that are important to deer
- cover interface techniques to maximize buck traffic
-plot shapes: do they even matter?
-The use of old roads, access trails, and out of the way plots in
mountainous areas and low spots.
-For the HUNTERS: Stealth design strategies and how to get the most
from your food plot. This along could make or break your food plot
efforts if you plan on using plots to improve deer harvest or deer herd
management.

In Deer Food Plots Made Easy We address the issue of soil testing. Why?


Because I skipped this step myself the first year out and spent the
next two years regretting it while applying lime to sort out issues of
Calcium and pH.
Soil Testing is More Complicated Than a Simple pH Test so we cover it
all:

The section of the book on Cover and Interface was very useful. I have
a small farm, about 70 arces and using them efficently and keeping the
pressure off the deer while approaching my stands have been a concern
for me. The property is almost equally divided, a 35 arces of hay near
the house and 35 acres woods behind the hay. I have 3 huntable corners
and a peninsula, I am looking forward developing some feathered edges
in these areas, not only for the deer, but to help cover me entering
the stands. I am going to try using a couple of the logging roads that
enter the field as hunting plots as well.

Ric

I just read your first chapter, and I can already tell this book will
help me plant the right food so I don't waste a lot of time and money
on the wrong one for my land. I am a new landowner with a passion to
create more of the natural resources and adding food plots to
supplement the food sources, to enhance the appeal to the local wild
life, and this book is going to go a long way in my education.

The Chapter on Soil Testing, was fantastic. It was very easy reading,
full of facts and good information and I did not feel as if I was
reading a textbook. I think it puts forward a very important part of
food plotting, or any other type of gardening for that matter, very
early in the book and I think it was great the way you got into the
depth of the subject "just enough" with out getting carried away. I
believe a lot of folks don't know or understand how to collect soil
samples which you explained and illustrated and I really liked the
examples you gave on adding and calculating the amounts of lime and
fertilizer after analyzing the soil test results. The fact that you
explained the importance of pH as well as the fact that it is not the
only important piece of information gotten from the soil test was good.

The First Edition of Deer Food Plots Made Easy was made available three
years ago.
Since that time I have had an open email line for questions from people
throughout the United States and Canada, wrote about Deer Food Plots on
my blog vetjudy , posted videos on YOUTUBE while continuing
research and efforts at improving this product.
The research I do is ongoing and in response to peoples specific
questions about What to do in their region? I have learned many
different strategies for different areas.
I decided to produce the SECOND EDITION of Deer Food Plots Made Easy as
my research database grew.
Over the past several Years I have been working to bring you a more
condensed, user friendly version of DIY Deer Food Plots. I am very
proud of the SECOND EDITION and it will be available in hardcopy soon.
The digital copy is available when you order the First Edition.

IF you ORDER THE FIRST EDITION YOU WILL GET THE DIGITAL SECOND EDITION
ABSOLUTELY FREE. We want to make sure you have all the current

Having a Hard Time Deciding What to Plant ?
What Season to Plant ?

We know you are familiar with Grains Clovers Alfalfa Chicory Soybeans
Corn Peas etc.
But Do You Know Which of These to Choose and Which Ones Can be Combined
Successfully
In our Principles of Planting we will sort out the following issues for
you

How much acreage to plant to keep deer on your property

Is your land better suited to feeding or hunting plots

We will help you decide what season is best for you to start your
plot in given your goals.

Soil types and preferred species for clay, loam, or sandy soils

Who should start with perennials and who should start with annuals

Recommendations if you have limited equipment, minimal time for
maintenance, or just want fall or late season hunting plants.

How to encourage annuals to behave like perennials.

How to accurately size your plot so you dont waste resources, create
weak plants and stimulate weeds.

Notable is the information on deer sighting during daylight hours and
the information regarding how to hunt food plots. I like the link to
QDMA and the Certification Program also.

I'm a hunter from South West Michigan. As everyone knows, very heavily
hunted. We own 60 acres and on all side we are covered up by hunters
and farming property. My dad use to farm it but now it has kind of just
grown back. We have been planting trees for several years and just put
our first three food plots in last year. I've read several articles by
Bill Winke and am currently reading an older book on food plotting.


What I liked is that it had a nice flow and wasn't lengthy. Also, it
introduced some different types of plants that I had not thought of as
being a good food source. I want to research a little more on the fruit
trees. We are planting apple trees but maybe it would be a good idea if
we planted a variety of fruit trees. I've never heard of the "simmion"
fruit before. I'm looking forward to hearing more about that. I love
being outdoors and general management of our land. I'm looking forward
to reading more in the future from your book. Thank you for this "FREE"
opportunity to become more informed.

Me looking for a deer ;-) I knew there had to be a better way to grow a
food plot than this hit-and-miss approach.


Wouldn't it be great, I thought, if I could just buy all the
ingredients and get all the instructions I needed in one simple
purchase?


And so I began to investigate readymade deer food plots. If there's one
sure place to find trophy bucks, it's in ads for ready-made plots.


With their stunningly huge antlers, the deer in these ads make it look
like all you have to do is plant some seeds, then sit back and wait for
the bucks to show up.


Nothing could have been further from the truth.


Here is the detail on the CHARTS WE KNOW YOU WILL LOVE


CHART NUMBER 1: Common Cool Season Plants For Deer Food Plots: Annual,
Perennial, Biennial Planting Dates (North and South) provides the
following information.
1) Divides cool season legumes, grains, and grasses into annuals,
perennials, and biennials.
2) Shows which species are grown north or south.
3) Gives planting date ranges and average maximum production times.
4) Minimum germination temperatures.
5) Time of Year when the plant is best established. Even though cool
season annuals lend themselves to fall, late winter or early spring
planting some do better when planted in one or two of these time
frames.


CHART NUMBER 2: Common Cool Season Plants for Deer Food Plots: Soil and
pH Preferences, Till or Low Till, Reseeding Information provides the
following information.
1) Specific plant information on soil preferences, pH ranges,
suitability for till or no till planting, and ability of the plant to
reseed.
2) Soil preferences such as sandy, sandy loam, clay, clay loam, loam.
3) Suitability to no till or low till planting.
4) Three columns dividing plants into pH preferred range <6.0, 6.0-7.0,
and >7.0. This way it is easy for you to quickly scan and see which
legumes will grow in your area.
5) A column indicating which plants can tolerate acidic soils, but for
which growth may not be optimized depending on other factors. This is
great for those food plotters that have acidic soils and where other
factors such as moisture heat and drought may limit choices for maximum
production of legumes.
6) There are also two columns showing you which legumes are better in
wet or well drained soils.
7) The last column shows which annual cool season legumes can be
encouraged to reseed, which means you can use them like perennials.
CHART NUMBER 3:Common Cool Season Legumes for Deer Food Plots:
Tolerances provides the following information.
1. preference for larger plotting areas
2. weed choking ability
3. grazing tolerance for those of you with high browse pressure
4. quick growth early season
5. heat tolerance
6. shade tolerance
7. flood tolerance
8. low fertility growing ability


CHART NUMBER 4: Popular Regional Legume + Chicory Plant Choices for
Deer Food Plots provides the following information.
1. Regions as Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Mid-South, Southeast Uplands,
Southeast Lowlands, Great Lakes, Midwestern Corn Belt, Northern Central
Plains, Southern Plains, Inland Northeast, Northwest Maritime, Coastal
California, California Central Valley, and Southwest regions of both
United States and Canada are listed in chart form and it is easy to see
which legumes are predominately successful in these areas.
2. Within each of these regions we have listed the states and provinces
generally considered to be part of the area for easy clarification. If
a legume isnt listed in your area this doesnt mean you cant plant it,
but it gives you the idea of where a legume is likely to be more
successful due to prevailing conditions.




LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE OF HOW OUR CHARTS to Help You Make the
Perfect SELECTION

Lets say you are looking for an acidic soil legume


Which on the chart you would easily see that your choices are
best with subclover, hairy vetch, and alsike.


Of these three you can easily tell from the chart that alsike
is a perennial and the other two are annuals.


Of the two annuals subclover would usually reseed if
encouraged whereas hairy vetch is less likely to reseed). All three can
be used in the North


Subclover would be best established in Late Summer Early Fall
whereas Hairy Vetch is better established Early Fall or Early Spring.
Alsike is best established fall in the south and early spring in the
north.


Using the rest of the chart you could find out that
subterranean clover is a great weed competitor, tolerates grazing
because of rapid growth, and has both wet and drought tolerance as well
as low fertility tolerance. The perennial alsike also has similar
characteristics.


Both subclover and hairy vetch do well in MidAtlantic, Mid
South. Hairy vetch would do well in Southern Plains and InLand
Northwest among others and Subclover is used more in coastal California
and California central valley than is hairy vetch.

For the Warm Season Annuals we also have you covered.

IF YOU are OVERCOME BY THE THOUGHT OF WEED CONTROL OR HAVE BEEN
OVERCOME BY WEEDS IN PREVIOUS YEARS WE CAN HELP!

The most common steps to dealing with your food plot weeds are:
1) Prevent them FROM establishing.
2) Dont bring them into the plot.
3) Dont use contaminated seed (use only plant certified crop seed)
which means it is certified to be free of weeds)
4) Use clean equipment.
5) Control weeds before they go to seed.
6) Dont drag vegetative parts of perennial weeds around in the plot.
7) Understand the environment.
8) Identify the weed or at least start with is it a grass or a
broadleaf and know the lifecycle.
9) Learn about biology so you can understand if it needs controlling,
what types of methods of control are best used, and what are going to
be the costs and effort associated with the management of that weed
10) Consider how weeds are spread: wind, water, animals, human
movement, and equipment.
11) Watering before planting may cause weed seeds to germinate. Control
those weeds with mechanical or chemical methods before planting the
crop.

In the SECOND EDITION of DEER FOOD PLOTS MADE EASY WE HAVE GONE INTO
MORE DETAIL ON WEED CONTROL.
^How different tillage systems encourage different weeds
^Weed classifications beyond grasses versus broadleaf.
^Annual versus perennial versus biennial weeds and how they spread
(simple and creeping) and how this relates to effective weed control<

Five Steps to Landing Your Trophy Buck!


Deer food plot - five steps to landing trophy bucks free bonus

Why do people spend time, energy and significant amount of money in
pursuit? It's the bucks, of course! And not just any buck - only a
real trophy buck will do. The sort that you leave an empty space on
the wall for. The sort that will make your friends jealous. The sort
that haunts your dreams, just out of range.


For most, this seems like a thoroughly attainable goal. Yet weekend
after weekend, so many dedicated hunters come up empty. Even those who
look forward to each year with a positive attitude often end up
disappointed with perfectly acceptable 6-point youngsters - providing
plenty of meat to stock the freezer with (and even some extra for
family and friends), but something is missing.


Contrary to what many disappointed hunters believe, it's not about
luck. On the contrary, it's all about strategy - and not even a very
complicated one, either.


Here are five simple steps to help you achieve ..the bigger buck.






Bonus No. 3
