Just a
few lines to let you know how much I like Whitetail Institute products
and services. I have planted Imperial Clover for 14 years now and love
it. The only thing I don’t like about it is, every 5 years or so, when I
have to plant something else for a year. My deer do not like it either.
My theory is that it is the “Alpo” rule. If you feed your dog “Alpo” for
a long time and then switch him to the brand “x” stuff, he will eat it
eventually when he gets hungry enough, but he won’t eat as much as if it
were “Alpo” and he won’t like it as much.
I also
used the Arrest last year and it worked just like you said. The only
grass I had left was the “skip spots” caused from my inexperience at
spraying. Presently I have 10 acres of Imperial Clover planted and this
year I am going to plant “Extreme” on an additional acre to try it. I am
sending you a picture of the buck I killed with my bow on the edge of
one of my two acre clover fields in Southern Illinois last season. He is
the biggest one I have ever killed with any weapon. He grossed 180” with
15 points, one being a 7” drop tine. Until last year, being the “Big
Buck” hunter that I am, I had always hunted the thickest stuff I could
find and I did pretty well, especially in colder weather. I am going to
have re-evaluate this strategy after killing this bruiser on a beautiful
75 degree day in the first week of October. He was following a doe into
the corner of the field and I shot him broadside at 12 yards from my
ladder stand. He went 40 yards and fell down dead. In conclusion, thanks
for all your help and assistance, along with your great products. |
