    Don Higgins on Rope Scrapes, Spring Food Plots, & Spring Habitat Work | CGP 317

    In this week’s episode of the Chasing Giants Podcast, Terry and Don cover a lot of ground as spring habitat season starts taking off. Don shares updates from the road after wrapping up another stretch of consulting visits, including weather extremes, dealer stops, and picking up a new truck from Victory. Terry also talks about an upcoming bear hunt in Manitoba and gives listeners an update on the Texas hunt raffle tied to Lester’s Feet. The guys spend time breaking down the launch of the new Real World Land Management Handbook, including what’s inside, why it took so long to complete, and how it can help food plotters and land managers at every experience level. They also discuss the overwhelming response to the handbook release and why they created it as a practical field reference rather than a money-making project. Later in the show, Don explains how to properly prepare and use Scrape Magnet this time of year, including why weathered rope matters, how to season rope ahead of velvet season, and the mistakes people make when setting up rope scrapes. The episode also includes updates on new Chasing Giants TV videos, creek crossings, stand improvements, and a full round of listener-submitted questions on: - Bucks using yard food at night - Protecting apple trees from spray drift - Nutri-Crave corn cross-pollination - Miscanthus winter kill in northern climates - Whether Don would learn to swim for a guaranteed 200-inch buck - No-till soybean planting tips for beginners If you enjoy practical deer management, habitat improvement, food plotting, and honest conversation rooted in faith and family, this episode is for you.
