Cast Blast Grill Chill #19

Interview with Dr. Billy Higgenbotham

On today's episode we are thrilled to have Dr. Billy Higgenbotham of TAMU AgriLife Extension, Fish and Wildlife Sciences Professor and Specialist, and received a Emeritus status upon retirement, and Josh Fulcher of East Texas Hunting Club facebook group, and we discuss food plots, and go into great detail on warm season food plots for white tailed deer.

This Podcast is a total guide to warm season food plots, and with the .pdf's that Dr. Billy gave us you have all the information you need to plant a food plot this spring to help the deer out thru that critical stress period in July and August.

Dr. Billy says "one test is a thousand expert opinions."

We go into great detail on how big the food plots should be. Site selection for your food plots. How to test and amend your soil including lime, and fertilizer. What to plant, how to plant it, and seed rates. When to plant our food plots, and what is needed to maintain a warm season food plot. Plus we ask Dr. Billy specific questions from the members of East Texas Hunting Club.
