Send us a textMike Lindahl's journey to founding Domain Outdoors began at the intersection of two passions – competitive golf and a lifelong love of deer hunting. Raised in a family with a 55-year deer camp tradition, Mike started experimenting with food plots two decades ago, absorbing knowledge from experts and developing his own philosophy that would eventually reshape how many hunters approach habitat management.What makes Domain Outdoors stand out isn't just their catchy product names like "Big Sexy" and "Hot Chick," but their refreshingly honest approach. As Mike explains, they often find themselves helping customers with information instead of selling products, especially when someone might be better off waiting or doing more preparation before planting. This family-owned business prioritizes customer success over profit margins, believing that when hunters succeed, everything else falls into place.The conversation tackles several misconceptions about food plotting. First, that it requires expensive equipment – most of Domain's customers create successful plots with minimal tools, sometimes just a garden rake and determination. Second, that competing with surrounding agricultural fields is impossible – Mike reveals how strategic planting can fill nutritional gaps and attract deer even when surrounded by corn and beans. And perhaps most surprisingly, that all fertilizers work equally well – Domain's research found that 40-70% of traditional granular fertilizer is wasted, while their liquid alternatives are 6-7 times more effective.For hunters looking to create their own "whitetail domain," Mike offers practical advice about starting small, choosing the right plants for specific situations, and focusing on sustainable food sources like their "Comeback Kid" clover blend. The real reward comes when customers harvest deer over plots they've created – something Mike describes as the best part of what they do, a celebration of the hard work and dedication that goes into food plot management.Ready to transform your hunting property?

Whether you're planting your first plot or improving established ones, their straightforward approach and innovative products can help create the hunting success you've been seeking.Check us out on Facebook and instagram Hunts On Outfitting, and also our YouTube page Hunts On Outfitting Podcast.

On today's episode of The American Land Man Podcast, we are back in the studio with the newest member of the Whitetail Properties Team Hauger Jeff Fern and friend of the podcast Riley Arnold from Domain Outdoors. We discuss:Food plots are essential for attracting deer and enhancing hunting experiences.Domain Outdoors offers unique seed blends tailored for various environments.Liquid fertilizers are gaining popularity for their ease of use and effectiveness.Proper seed rates are crucial; over-seeding can choke out plants and reduce yield.Clover and brassica mixes require different seeding rates for optimal growth.Mowing food plots can stimulate growth and help control weeds.Fresh seed sourcing ensures better germination and plant health.Liquid products like Crank and Elbow Grease simplify nutrient application.Soil preparation is key; good contact improves seed success.Seasonal timing and weather conditions greatly impact food plot outcomes.And So Much More!Connect:-https://domainoutdoor.com/-https://bit.ly/NeilHaugerWhitetailProperties-https://bit.ly/NeilHaugerFacebook-https://bit.ly/NeilHaugerYouTube-https://bit.ly/NeilHaugerInstagram

Fall food plots greatly influence hunting success and wildlife attraction.  Planting in August and September on the east coast can be sketchy, especially when late summer droughts can persist.  This week on the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch is riding solo discussing a plan of action if disaster strikes in your fall food plots.  Mitch shares personal experiences  salvaging food plots that did not establish from drought stress in the past.  Farming is always a gamble with the weather.  After initially planting food plots, Mitch discusses when to scout your plots and how to help evaluate if alternative action is needed.  He discusses what plant species work to salvage a food plot, when they can be planted, and how they can be planted.  While the process of replanting may be repetitive, there are a few things to consider between species selection, weed management, and soil crusting which may occur from drought stress.  All in all, doing something is better than nothing!

FROM THE VAULT: In this episode, Jon Teater (Whitetail Landscapes) and Jake Ehlinger (Habitat Solutions 360) discuss food plots, property management, design, maintenance, and new property layout techniques. Jake explains his no till, food source options and how to reshape your property based on the neighborhood. Jake discusses his neighborhood and how to approach changes on a yearly basis. Jake's adaptive management style and his ability to be consistent and grow more tonnage per acre, allows him to pull in more deer and be less susceptible to over browse. Jake discusses his current food plot regime, and breaks down why this is the better late season food plot option when trying to manage a larger deer herd. Jake details his property layout and how deer congregate on his property when he creates “green plots” and how his food plots will outcompete other options like soybeans. Jake discusses a combination of soybeans and corn and what ratio he plants each in to get maximum results. Jake provides an option for annual plants and other options you have for late season food. Jake explains his neighborhood situation and what his neighbors are doing from a harvest to food perspective and how this impacts his property. Jake discusses the importance of his observation treestand and how you can observe much more through your own eyes as compared to trail cameras. Jake explains how trail systems he lays out will lead deer through his property for better hunting opportunities. Jon discusses the importance of observation data and why we should not ignore this information when evaluating deer movement. Jake explains his observation data and how bucks use cover and how deer move based on densities and wind direction. Jake explains how deer can avoid trail cameras and sometimes our reliance on trail cameras can be fraught with lack of or misinformation. Jon and Jake discuss how deer are individualistic and how data from trail cameras and observation lead to more information on deer behavior. Jon explains a strategy to pull a mature buck onto your property and the bits of information he relies on to ensure deer are going have increased interest in a property.  Jake discusses changes over time and how he handles the maintenance and improvement side of his property as succession occurs. Jon explains what we need to consider as we are making changes on our property as we go through seral stages over time. Jake explains a recent change he has made to his property to ensure deer utilization is high. Jake discusses normal maintenance and specific changes that may be needed to ensure bedding areas remain permanent fixtures in a deer's movement. Jake explains how to cut a focal area on his property through creating walls of cover, travel corridors, open and closed areas in the best locations. Jake continues to improve his and his client's properties through these detailed methods of cutting and how he emphasizes diversity on the landscape.
