Ultimate Deer Food Plot Summary

Decent Essays
The book, Ultimate Deer Food Plots by Ed Spinazzola, presents the reader with many ideas on property management. The concept that stood out to me was the idea of planting a multiple food plot lane. The basic design of these plots is to have numerous long sections with varying crops. Each strip can differ in size but are typically, 15ft-30ft wide. For example, you may plant a layer of corn 30ft wide on the outermost portion of the field. Then, soybeans or a combination of crops. Next, (depending on how many layers you do), comes the center of the field, this could all be open or have any other crop such as hay, more corn etc. What this does, is allows deer to bed in the center of the field and still feel safe. In turn, these plots could persuade

    White Tail Deer Wildlife plays a very important role in the history of our country, dating back hundreds of centuries to the first civilizations of Native Americans. White-Tail Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) played a significant part in how the Indians survived; deer supplied the Native Americans with meat (venison), clothing, tools, a source of trade between Europeans, and ceremonial items (Howe, 2011). This being said, if anything were to happen to the population of deer to decline the Indians way of life would be greatly hindered. Much like the Indians from centuries ago, the Indians from the 21st century still utilize the deer in the same way their ancestors did, along with many other Americans that inhabit the United States. The objective…

    My Year Of Meats Analysis

    • 1139 Words

    My Year of Meats has a particular way to display a genre in ways that other novels do not have with her unique way of presenting, Ruth Ozeki uses “meat” not just in the title but as a way that women (like Akiko) believe that they’re seen as which is cattle, I saw the metaphorical “equation” as body = meat and women = cattle. Ozeki also, most likely, did not put the clear use of cause and effect based on the fact that non-literal connections can be made about men towards women and cattle. Also, Ozeki had written this not only to read the fictional story of Akiko but to see a bigger picture of her culture and how people’s differences don't matter and to get past those differences of a person. The particular use of meat throughout the novel has…

    The final book that really spiked with my interest and stayed with me was Michael Pollan’s “The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals.” In this book, we followed Mr. Pollan as he explained the food that we eat in three parts, two of which we read. In Part 1 of the book I realized that our government has set us up to buy processed food in order to feed into the large companies that continue to control this nation’s economy. Consequently, as it does not care about our citizen individual health, it is my perception that if more people knew this, and if they understood that by buying more organic products, it would cause the demand to go up and the prices down, then they would.…

    The Omnivore's Dilemma is a book which modified the way people looked at their food and also what they ate. In Chapter 8 “The Omnivore's Dilemma”, Michael Pollan explains that omnivores like the modern day American can eat just about anything, but the problem is that they are uncertain of what should be eaten. Americans obtain a variety of choices when in a supermarket, but do they recognize what is good for them? Michael Pollan also argues that the reason we experience so many diet fads is that Americans have no food culture to fall back on. So, according to Pollan, the omnivore's dilemma is that the modern-day American doesn't know what to eat because we have no food culture to fall back on.…

    Mirta Ojio’s book Hunting Season, Immigration and Murder in an All-American Town is based on a true story of an immigrant’s murder that turned a small American town on Long Island village of Patchogue into a war zone for immigration rights. In this critical reflection paper, I will discuss and analyze three key issues or themes that were represented in the Hunting Season and elaborate how these concepts connect with those of Governing Immigration through Crime by Dowling and Inda. The first concept is that of the Membership Theory, a theory which “limits individual rights and privileges to the members of a social contract between the government and the people” (Dowling & Inda,2013). The Membership theory often marks out boundaries of who is an accepted member of society and who isn’t, which was demonstrated in Hunting Season when Marcelo Lucero traveled from Ecuador to Long Island.…

    Encumbered by highly advanced agricultural inventions, the American diet has evolved into a dilemma producing detrimental health affects for our nation. While a plethora of food choices, from chicken nuggets to Twinkies, may appear to be a dietary utopia; the technological advancements in the food industry have produced food-like products rather than authentic food. This nation-wide eating disorder has kept Americans in a cyclical process of attempting to achieve a thin figure while still gaining pounds. Through the course of his book, The Omnivore’s Dilemma, Michael Pollan investigates four meals: a meal from McDonalds eaten in the car, an organic based meal from Whole Foods, a meal from an organic, sustainable farm, and lastly, a meal that Pollan hunted and gathered himself.…

    Most scandals in industries are never brought to life. People are paid very well to keep things hushed up and out of the public eye. If we knew what really went down in most big companies, the loss of business would be deleterious to the profit margin, and that is the last thing CEOs want. However, once in a blue moon some brave soul steps in and sees the problem, and they know they have to tell the world what is going on. My Year of Meats by Ruth Ozeki demonstrates how the use of hormones in the meat industry affects the women and men who both consume the products as well as come into contact with them through other means.…

    Bam!! All of a sudden you see a flash of brown cross in front of you as you are driving from your parents’ house after visiting for Thanksgiving, you try to stop to avoid hitting the deer, but you end up hitting it and spinning out into the ditch causing you a lot of money in damage that has happened to your vehicle. That happens to many people in a year; there were 1.23 million car accidents involving deer and vehicles between July 2, 2011 and June 30, 2012. Many people think deer hunting should be illegal, but they don’t think about all the car wrecks that happen due to the deer, how much crops they eat from farm land, also how much landscaping they destroy from bucks making rubs and scrapes, they destroy a lot of fences, and how people use…

    Eating animals has been a regular meal for humans for many centuries, but it has also been opposed by veganists for many years. Although consuming animals has been opposed by vegan aficionados, it has also been a source of controversy because of how factory farming produces the meat we eat in our daily meals. In the book “Eating Animals” we get the sense that the author will be arguing and encouraging veganism, but instead he argues about how the meat we consume is produced. The author Jonathan Safran Foer’s main claim in the book is about boycotting animal factory farming and encouraging traditional husbandry because factory farm animals are stuffed with antibiotics, mutilated, tightly confined, and deprived of stimulation. While traditional…

We tested and align the rifles, to leave everything prepared to go hunting the following day at dawn. We were very positive that we were going to be lucky enough to hunt a big trophy deer, tough the results we had were never crossed our minds.…

    Excuse me, where is the elbow grease? When it comes to immigrating, simply learning the language is not enough. In order to assimilate into a new country, one must not only learn the language and culture, but also be capable of translating the culture back into language. So is the story of a young girl who immigrated with her family to the United States when she was just seven years old. In her essay “Hot Dogs and Wild Geese,” Firoozeh Dumas illustrates the challenges she and her family struggled with through her approach to anecdotal humor when they first moved to the United States from Iran.…
