As Triple C said, clover is the gift that keeps on giving and I agree totally. I've been seeing everyone's clover pics over the last couple of weeks so I took a few while I was at my lease on Sunday.
We've got a lot of typical rectangular - round plots but being a pine planation and the owners growing trees everywhere that they can, we plant any little spot that we available. We've got plots that run along the edges of our roads and we plant lots of skidder trails in the pines also a lot like Jim Boyd does and I've grown to really like hunting those long narrow plots, it's almost like the deer feel more secure sometimes in them than standing out in a 2 acre open plot.
Some of the clover in these pics is 8+ years old, some was planted last fall and everything in between. Most of ours aren't the weed free magazine cover plots, I've come to realize that a few weeds definitely aren't hurting anything and that the deer actually eat a lot of the weeds so I don't stress over it like I use to. I still spray them for grass if it gets really bad but mostly just mow them occasionally.
