Different goals and circumstances will influence how best to sell your land, and one option you'll come across is auctioning. An auction may be the best bet for selling your property.

What about Hunting Geese?

Our flyway goose season is set-up to run concurrent with our duck season and usually ends the around the 24th of January. Most of the Canada geese we have in Kentucky are resident geese. For the most part, the Canada goose migration rarely comes any further south than the middle of Illinois. For us to get any geese in Tennessee, the weather has to be really cold.

The cotton trailer is a big, open trailer that cotton is dumped into that takes cotton from the field to the cotton gins. We have our cotton trailer blind parked right alongside a river that’s one of the major

Fruit trees need continuous care if they’re going to remain productive. So many people have fruit trees on their property that have grown out of control.

Hunting Waterfowl on the Mississippi Flyway

The early season on the Mississippi flyway in 2014 was really good for waterfowling. We had some cold weather right before Thanksgiving that brought a large number of ducks down for the opening week of waterfowl season. Quite a few hunters reported taking limits of ducks on opening weekend, but after Thanksgiving the weather stabilized, and our area has had a fairly warm winter.

Cory Dukehart Tells about Maryland’s Resident Geese

The history of Maryland goose hunting is really strange. Back in the late 1800s and early 1900s, Maryland was a hot bed for goose hunting. In those early days, waterfowl hunters believed that there was an endless supply of ducks and geese coming down the flyway. They believed the birds they shot every year were replaced with more birds the next year.
