If you can afford it, go with RR. I liked spring better, dew to moisture, but fall worked also.

The Bulldog 505 is more suited for piedmont and upper coastal plain soils. The 805 was developed for lower coastal plain soils. I mixed some 805 in a ladino clover plot this fall. I limed earlier but don’t think I had the rain to start breaking it down. I’m tempted to try some more in another spot if this planting takes off.
I think I’d stick with one of the Bulldog varieties over a RR variety. I can use Beyond/Imox or Pursuit for broadleaf weed control and Clethodim for grasses.

I planted 805 last fall and it did exceptionally well. Had three cuttings on it this summer. I’ll say the deer absolutely love it. You need to be able to keep it cut and ideally not with a bush hog. The 805 goes dormant but remains green and the deer feed on it through the winter. The RR variety is indeterminate growth so continues growing through the winter.
Wish it was hunting season.....year round

I would have to broadcast mine. I’m interested in giving it a try this Spring.

Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

Some of you guys with spare land to experiment with try planting sainfoin I AINT SKEERED. WHERE CAN I GET IT? Not positive of best place, but several places on the Google/Amazon. Buddy of mine is on.a pollinator program in TN and has someone in the Shelbyville,TN area getting him some seed for next spring. Landowner I hunt on in Idaho plants it for his deer and elk.
