Five years ago, my family was fortunate enough to purchase a small 25-acre parcel of land in North Dakota. The property is situated in the middle of a winding valley that cuts its way through open crop fields and pasture land.

Dennis Vance – Illinois
A
group of guys and I have leased this acreage for more than 15 years in
Illinois. From the start of our club we have used Imperial Whitetail Clover,
Alfa-Rack Plus, Extreme, Edge and other Whitetail Institute products almost
exclusively.
Pick Your Product — Institute Forages are Designed for Virtually Every Circumstance
A question the Whitetail Institute’s in-house consultants are often asked is, “Which of the Whitetail Institute’s perennial forage products is the best?”
Imperial Whitetail Alfa-Rack Plus… It’s All About the Formula!
If you’re looking for a high-protein perennial forage product designed for top performance and versatility in good, well-drained soils, look no further than Imperial Whitetail Alfa-Rack Plus.
MASSACHUSETTS Food Plots Build Healthy Herd
Ray Keddy Jr. from Massachusetts started using No-Plow and Imperial Whitetail Clover four years ago. Keddy was committed to building a healthy deer herd and knew if he wanted bigger bucks he had to invest in quality products.
PENNSYLVANIA Hunter Uses Whitetail Institute products for 15 Years
Robert Curtis is a trend setter. The Pennsylvania hunter started using Whitetail Institute products about 15 years ago. And now, a decade and half later, he has a solid deer management program that includes highly nutritious food plots. “I got hold of some of the No-Plow first,” Curtis recalled.
Understanding Protein and How It Fits In Your Management Plan
Frequently, when someone receives a small
piece of knowledge, it makes them a semi-authority on the subject. No doubt,
the information age we live in has proliferated and expanded this condition.
Often, the information you receive is inaccurate, but if you read it online or
via old fashioned print, it has to be gospel, right? Even if what you have read
or been told is true, it might be only a small piece of a much bigger picture
and might contribute to using the information incorrectly.
This Ain’t Your Granddaddy’s Greenfield
Once upon a time, your granddaddy’s rye grass
field and an old, wooden tree stand was the only game in town. He planted the
greenfield, hoping seed would sprout, the drought wouldn’t be severe, and that
the deer had nothing else to eat. Today, that kind of thinking runs like a
Model-T at Daytona. Just because your daddy or granddaddy did it, doesn’t mean it
can’t improve. Take Fred Abbas, for example, a fellow from northern Michigan
who retired with a challenging ambition to hunt trophy bucks in his home state
of Michigan. Guess what? There weren’t any.
Reclamation Food Plots How you can turn a negative into a positive.
By Bob Humphrey

| Stock dams are another good location for reclamation plots. Just make sure your planting addresses potential erosion problems on steep slopes. |
Ed Gaw
owns a 200-acre parcel of land in western Pennsylvania. On the surface, it is
nothing special; just another patch of wooded ground, a place to hunt and spend
time outdoors. However, it overlies a formation of sedimentary rock known as
the Marcellus Shale Formation, which spans West Virginia, eastern Ohio,
southern New York and most of western and central Pennsylvania. Within the
impervious limestone beneath this formation is a reservoir of natural gas once
thought to be marginally worth the investment to recover. During the past
decade, however, geologists have significantly increased their assessments and
now estimate the formation contains enough natural gas to support the entire
United States consumption for at least two years, though estimates keep
increasing.
10 Reasons Food Plots Fail
By Brad Herndon
Don’t quit!
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of
doubt,
And you never can tell how close
you are,
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the fight when you’re
hardest hit,
It’s when things seem worse, that
you must not quit.
Why I Plant in Spring
By Dean Weimer
Planting food plots in spring is a superior option for hunters looking to offer up an established, attractive, and nutritional food source for their deer in the warm season and beyond.
After all, bucks in particular need to replenish lost reserves from their skeletal system and overall physiology as a result of the stress-heavy process of antler growth/calcification, in conjunction with the rigors of the primary rut, followed by the grueling winter months in the middle and upper latitudes of the northern hemisphere.
Crop Rotation Improve Forage and Soil Quality - and Save Money!
When you read the title of this article, you probably thought, “I know that
planting Imperial blends can increase the carrying capacity of my property and
drastically improve nutrient availability for my deer. But, how can planting
improve the quality of my soil and save me money at the same time?” The answer
starts with an understanding of how to use existing and new forage plantings to
improve soil quality in a given site, so let’s look at that first. We’ll look at
crop rotation, nitrogen-fixing forages and how to combine both for maximum
results.
Mixing and Matching A Formula for Success
I receive many questions as a traveling seminar speaker. Attendees want to know lots of things about whitetail deer, from how to hunt them to how to feed them. When I first hit the seminar trail nearly 30 years ago, hunters were primarily interested in how-to hunting strategies. No more. Today, one the most frequently asked questions is, “How do you lay out a property to attract deer and offer the best hunting opportunities throughout fall.”
Alfa-Rack Plus "Research = Results" in Action
“Research = Results.” There is a fundamental reason why Whitetail Institute
products continue to lead the industry, and their motto says it all. The
Institute is committed to exhaustive research and development, not only of new
products but also existing products such as Alfa-Rack Plus.
Ten Food Plot Temptations To Avoid
I can recall many times when I’ve sat down in a restaurant at breakfast time with the full intent of ordering oats, toast and coffee for my meal. I have a weakness, though. It’s called biscuits and gravy. In fact, Steve Scott of the Whitetail Institute and many other people call me Biscuit Brad. So, even though I have the best intentions of eating a healthy breakfast, when I scan down the menu and my eyes come to the words biscuit and gravy, the temptation becomes too great and I once again succumb to my tasty weakness.
Effects of drought challenge hunters
Blame it on bad luck, God’s will, or just a string of unfortunate weather patterns, but much of the United States has been ravaged by a prolonged period of drought. Reservoirs are drying up, crops refuse to grow and deer hunters are wondering what it all means.
Problem Solving Creates “Deadly” Food Plot Strategy
If you've ever watched our A-Way Outdoors television program or read any of our articles in Woods-N-Waters News, you know we invent our own hunting tactics. If you own any of our A-Way Hunting products, you would also know we invent our own products. The reason is very simple: There are problems with every hunting aid that will eventually cost a hunter their quarry, and there are problems that ultimately surface during every type of hunt.
Biological Clock Governs Life and Health of Deer....And smart whitetail managers know how to keep time
Our world is changing at a pace faster than we have ever seen before. Vast improvements in science and technology have allowed us, as conservationists and outdoor enthusiasts, to manage our natural resources in ways never previously thought possible. We also have the latest-greatest camo patterns, the lightest treestands, and clothing that eliminates your scent. You can even have trail-cam pics sent directly to your cell phone or computer without ever re-entering the woods.
BREADBASKET FOOD PLOTS Mid-West Food Plotting Presents Unique Challenges
I hate it when the first deer I see during the season is a buck in the 130s to 140s; definitely a trophy but not quite up to my standards.
I was perched near the top of a gnarled, spreading burr oak tree overlooking a prime plot of Imperial Alfa-Rack the first day of Iowa’s late primitive-weapons season. Normally, I wouldn’t have been hunting that early during the late season, preferring to wait until deer settle down from the firearms season.
Longtime Imperial User Battles Oklahoma Weather To Come Out On Top
Kevin Wood knows his Oklahoma weather isn’t always perfect for growing lush food plots. In fact, sometimes the hot, dry weather makes it downright tough for food plots to thrive. Wood has learned, though, if you pay attention to details, use quality products and get a little luck from Mother Nature deer can benefit from the nutrition provided by food plots. And now Wood’s deer are growing healthier and larger because of his food plot efforts.
