Planting a No-Till Plot

There are a number of other details important to the planting process, but when planting a no-till plot these are the most significant. No-till planting is a great method to produce a stand in a spot where the ground cannot be worked due to excessive rocks, stumps or other debris, a site where you cannot get equipment to, or for first-time farmers who don’t have the necessary equipment.

Mossy Oak Pro John Phillips – Deer Hunter, Student and Professional Football Player

A good deer hunter studies the land he’ll be hunting. He gets clues from the deer signs in the woods. Maybe he has trail-camera pictures that actually show him the buck he’s trying to take.
