Want to Hunt on The DreamDirt Farm – Hunters Helping Soldiers

I find almost no cause as worthy as those that help disabled police officers and soldiers, for those that put their life, their families future on the line and fought to keep us all safe.  For those that defend my families safety all day long here at home and for those that defend my priceless American Freedom I’ll always reach into my pocket to help.  I was lucky to come out of a 20 year career as a police officer with no disability other than a few really crazy nightmares from time to time.  George Wooden approached me about the possibility of the grand prize of all, a deer hunt on the DreamDirt farm.  George is one of the nations premier fundraisers, a fellow I’ve gotten along well with for a long time.  If you understand deer management you understand age is the #1 factor in growing big bucks, and that you can only hold so many big bucks on your property.  The balance between crop farming and holding deer compete against each other, as does the carrying capacity of the land, regardless I immediately agreed to George’s request and gave him a hunt for anytime of the year.  Rut, late season, pre rut… you choose!  November 20th is the November to Remember Event where the hunt will be sold so its coming fast!

Now I know that most of you that read this are not going to drive to Delaware for the event but I want to encourage you to do the same as I did, dig in your pocket and give something.  They are offering the opportunity for those that can not attend to “Sponsor a Veteran” to the event.  Each sponsorship is $45 and you can purchase it right online on the Fundraising Event Page.   I can tell you, if you never served in the military, and I didn’t, Freedom is the cheapest deal you are ever going to get in life!  Think of what you get in exchange for what you have paid.  Some folks literally give their life, their families give up a mother or father, son or daughter, brother or sister, or neice or nephew.  Some of you reading this know that all to well and it hits home and I wish it didn’t have to be, but the strongest in our society will always be those that serve.  The foundation of our country was built on the backs of those willing to put it all on the line and not those that have a good voice, or the best football players or those willing to do something shocking to get publicity.  The veterans and current service members in America won’t ever participate in a lock out holding out for a multi million dollar contract.  They will be there everytime you need them, and a select few need you there for them now, I hope you’ll take the opportunity to give like I did.

Now if you want to buy the hunt…. you’ll have to call George 443-206-6121

    Jason, from every one of the Board of Directors at Hunters Helping Soldiers, we can not thank you enough. As the Premier Hunting Veterans Organization in the United States, it is truly a pleasure to have a man such as you and “Dream Dirt” as a National Sponsor.

    This month alone, Hunters Helping Soldiers is sending 19 Combat and Combat Wounded Veterans on Hunts and Fishing Trips across North America. On November 20th, we are hosting our National Fundraising Event in Dover, Delaware. All the proceeds goes directly into Mission, to send our Veterans on Outdoor Excursions to assist them with their rehabilitation as well as a means of saying Thank You for all they have done for us.

    Again Jason, Thank you from the bottom of hearts for your donation to our nations leading outdoor Cause, Hunters Helping Soldiers.

Iowa Farmland 101

CSR stands for Corn Suitability Rating which has a big influence on the value of tillable farmland in Iowa. CSR is an index procedure developed in Iowa to rate each different kind of soil for its potential row-crop productivity. Soil profile properties and weather conditions are the dominant factors that affect productivity. Slope characteristics are major factors that determine how land should be used. Slope gradient and slope length affect potential erosion rates, water infiltration, and ease and efficiency of machine operation. CSRs provide a relative ranking of all soils mapped in the state of Iowa based on their potential to be utilized for row-crop production.

Auctions vs. Listing

Auctions are an excellent match for farmland. "Time certain date of sale" is a term we use in the auction business. With an auction you know the exact day it will sell which is a huge advantage to any seller. If you are planning for taxes, or closing an estate knowing the exact sale day and closing day is a huge advantage. In today's world of rapidly rising farmland values how would you price your farm to list it? Go to high and you taint your farms value for some time into the future, go to low and you leave money on the table. Auctions are the superior marketing method for farmland, you get more indivdual attention for your property, much more reasonable commission rates and you fully control the process!

Real Estate Term: Pocket Listings

Have you ever heard an agent refer to a "Pocket Listing"? Pocket listings are farms we know are for sale, but not listed. In other words for one reason or another a person has told us "I don't want to list it but feel free to bring me offers" Sellers do this for various reasons, sometimes they don't want neighbors or family to know, sometimes they know several real estate agents and don't want to offend the other.

What you can't find in my listings, I may very well have as a pocket listing so its important to call and open the conversation, let me know what you are after and if I don't have it, I'll certainly keep an eye out for you and that doesn't cost you a dime!
