Happy Father’s Day from Michigan Whitetail Properties!

Here’s to the dads who taught us how to track a trail, respect the land, sit still in a stand, and appreciate the kind of quiet you only find in the woods.

Whether you’re spending today with your kids, your dad, or remembering the man who first took you hunting — we hope you get a little time outside and a whole lot of gratitude.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there.

Food Plot Window Is Open This Week

If you haven't gotten buckwheat in the ground yet — you're not behind. But you need to go this week.

Buckwheat is Michigan's best summer bridge crop. Matures in 70 days, feeds deer from late summer into early fall, suppresses weeds, and preps a clean seedbed for your brassicas and cereal rye. It's also cheap. This is the move.
Here's where you stand right now by zone:

• Zone 3 (Southern LP) → Buckwheat window closes July 1. You're in it.
• Zone 2 (Northern LP) → June 15–July 10. Two weeks left.
• Zone 1 (Upper Peninsula) → July 1–July 20. Coming up fast.

Clover should already be established. If it's not, you can still get a late planting in Zones 2 and 3 this week before soil temps climb too high.

Brassicas and turnips come next — mid-July for most of the LP. Cereal rye closes the calendar in late August and will pull deer into your plots within three weeks of germination.

Get buckwheat in now and deer are working your food plots by late August — before a single stand goes up.

Properties with a full-season food plot system sell faster and command $500–$2,000 more per acre. Thirty years of transactions says that gap doesn't close.
