We've had some warm days around here so this morning I tried one of my fields. I could work a shovel into the ground and leverage out the frozen top layer. It's my second Barber Half this year. Happy New Year everyone!!

Thank you Bagers, Bucknut and Lodge Scent! Jeff, I'm surprised you haven't found any halves. I know you're a woods guy but I bet you have some old, well-traveled parks near you. You ever try them?
