Went back and read your previous post before I responded. Well, planting a small food plot with anything will not increase you chances at deer very much, unless you hunt during the night!. You need habitat, natural feed sources, water, bedding areas, shelter( dense woods and thickets). Planting a food plot to hunt over in my opinion is unethical and I (repeat I)consider it baiting, do it for the health of whatever herd you have but remember deer have survived for a very long time with out the current trend of "foodplots". If you want bigger bucks and have an area of smaller parcels the landowners and the hunters in that area need to commit to NOT harvesting the smaller bucks. Big bucks dont just get there by feeding them, they have to be able to make it to their 3rd and 4th year or longer. Most guys shoot everything they see with antlers which really cuts down the potential to harvest a decent buck. Note, a buck with goofy antlers does not always mean it should be culled, it may have just been injured and have very good genetics to pass on! Make a habit if nothing else to never shoot a buck who's antler's are equel or less than the width of their ears at an alert position. Good habitat and selective buck harvest will increase you odds. The pics are mine from last fall and a freinds from this fall, there are a number of this size running around now due to local restraint, hard to pass the smaller ones for a few year's but then you will eventually see more in this class!

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
