    .17 Caliber

    Any of y'all have a .17? If so, what kind? I want one to varmint hunt with and have no clue. I prefer an auto-loader rimfire, but a bolt would work.

    Acorns

    Several folks have asked if I'd have acorns to sell this year. Some. The sauls seem to have been hurt by the late freeze, but there are a few. Plenty of standard sawtooth and gobble sawtooth. Some scarlet and shumard. Haven't checked the chinkapin oaks yet. Got some chinese chestnuts, too...

    Brillion Cultipacker

    Anybody know where I could find a cast-iron bearing housing for an old Brillion cultipacker? I backed mine into a tree Thursday and broke it. Here's a picture:

    My 2014 Quest

    This is the guy I'm looking for on my farm in Georgia this year. I videoed him in my clover field as a 3 1/2 year old last December. I had already filled my self-imposed one-buck-per-year limit so I didn't shoot him. Maybe this year.

    Nut tree observations

    After walking and looking over all the nut-producing trees I have grown and planted at The Farm, I have come to the following conclusion. I have planted every kind of oak tree I could get my hands on, because I like diversity. I have chinkapins, dwarf chinkapins, sauls, chestnut, white, water...

    T-buds in August?

    Question about this technique. If you do t-buds in August will they grow this year or just sit until Spring?

    This weekend

    Spent the weekend, ripping, plowing, and rolling 13 acres of plots that we sprayed with Roundup last month. Plan is to now let crabgrass and wild ryegrass germinate and begin growing, spray to kill all that in late August, then drill wheat and rye into the thatch. On a ryegrass eradication...

    Sawtooth Acorns

    Just a early FYI, I will have a bunch of sawtooth acorns for $0.10/each this year off of my trees that have been producing since they were 5 years old if anybody wants any.

    Grafting next year

    With the failure of so many of my rootstocks this year resulting in losing the grafts, I'm thinking next year I will order rootstocks, pot them, and let them grow a year and then either whip & tongue graft them the following winter or t-bud them in August. Anybody ever took that approach on...

    Stupid Hunting Laws

    Didn't know where else to stick this. I was watching some mule deer and whitetail hunts on TV yesterday from some western states and just got to thinking about some of the stupid laws states come up with. The one that gets me, and that I saw in all those videos, is where a hunter has to where...

    Apple grafts

    Finally remembered to take my camera to my parents' to get pictures of some apple grafts I did back in April. I ordered 10 B118 rootstocks from Cummins to graft an old heirloom horse apple and an heirloom striped apple of some sort from my buddy's house. The parent trees are nearly 50 years...

    A hunt from 2012

    This is the buck I shot in Nebraska in 2012. Just got the mount done and he is in his place of honor in my living room now.

    Drilling Soybeans

    Got my first introduction to the use of a seed drill for actually planting something on the farm today. Met a guy in the county I live in that would do it for $20/acre. He came over today and drilled me in 1 acre of Eagle beans that will be under electric fence and 2 acres of ag beans. Only...
