    School me on over seeding pasture

    I'm in the other corner of Tennessee.........been restoring/reseeding the pastures here for the last 4-5 years......can't re-plant all that needs to be.....steepness/erosion issues.....but have worked in "diluting" the infected fescue to acceptable levels.

    Weed Wiper

    I've Got a GrassWorks..........been mostly positive but it's a real "art" to getting thorough coverage....no matter which angles, trips, etc you use. And the pump to keep the roller just wet....but not too wet.....is a learning experience.

    Cattle trailer floor

    I'm also pretty diligent about using a pressure washer along the edges where the Rumber flooring rests on the metal brackets.........3/4 inch groove can hold a lot of residue

    Things I absolutely hate.....

    At 74, I'm hardly a zealot but have been riding since I was a kid. Been blown and chased off the roads many a time by big "bubbas" showing off their muscle truck on steroids. My tire print from two wheels is 3/4 inch wide by 2 inches long......a tiny contact with the road. And yes.....I...

    Age?

    I've got 4 young...(10 months)...bulls to start to market in this heavily Angus area....I guess I'm still a contarious person.......will probably cross them later with something black. ?? But they are the most gentle and adaptive cows I've owned over the 40+ years.
