[Clover Patch#2]

I’ve got to get a spreader for my UTV to use on my plots. What recommendations do you guys and gal’s have or that you use. Will use it for food plot and yard application.

I like the moultrie electric with remote control that plugs into cigarette lighter outlet in dash of ranger. It mounts in standard receiver hitch, but i wanted mine to seed into tall grass and use simultaneous while I spray herbicide - so I made another receiver hitch mount higher up. You can start, stop, and adjust flow gate all from driver seat. I think about $350. Used two full years with no problem.

Whatever you go with I highly recommend a thorough cleaning if you spread fertilizer

After a very lengthy and thorough testing, I have determined that planting operations go much smoother with Coors Light

This means you’ve tried without?

Don't get the Swisher brand. The hopper is good but their spinner plate is a bad design. Won't throw like a spreader should.

Yes, one day I left my ice chest at home by mistake

You better pay dang close attention to any pics you post on here. Folks pick em apart like vultures.

You think I dug through his underwear drawer to get that picture? Or did he post it on a public forum? And if you didn't already know that SC drank Coors, you don't come to this part of the forum much.

My recommendation is dont ever put fertilizer in an electric spreader.

My recommendation is dont ever put fertilizer in an electric spreader.

We only fertilize with PTO driven spreaders. And still wash down all components thoroughly.

That is what I do - and got 15 years out of my last spreader. Had to buy a new one this year. I dont fertilize much anymore unless I am growing a crop like sunflowers or millet that benefits from a shot of nitrogen. I have quit fertilizing my clover/wheat plots - now relying on the clover to fix nitrogen for the wheat. Deer dont seem to care.
