#1 Just had our 50th last week.

Get rid of rats, mice and voles.

Was just at Lowe's and the price is $110.00. And that is for 100'.

I always used a simple one quart pray bottle. The problem is they always end up leaking rather quickly. Last fall I was in Lowe's and noticed Round-up in a spray quart bottle. I figured if it would hold up for them it should do the same for me. I bought one and used it up on a lot of old wild...

LOL,,,,,,,I have to learn to read more slowly with these old eyes. I could have sworn I read that your son got a "bump BB gun". How in the hell do you put a bump stock on a BB gun? ....................:)

I just checked Google Earth and I grew up 5.81 miles from downtown Pittsburgh as the crow flies. My earliest memory was my Dad calling to tell me that they were coming home from the yearly trip to Emporium, Pa. He told me they had gotten a couple deer and I was allowed to wait up until they got...

I really love it. I can sit here in South Carolina and watch it on TV all day. :)

I am beginning to think this whole CWD thing is more about the insurance companies wanting the deer herds decimated. In PA, it looks like they are finally going to allow Sunday hunting. Not because the sportsmen/women want it but because the insurance companies have been lobbying for it hard the...

LIke you, I am afraid to attempt burning. The problem is, a lot of leaf litter simply won't let seeds germinate. I came up with a bit of a compromise. I borrowed a friends backpack blower. It is gasoline powered so can run a long time. I used it to disturb the litter and to spread seeds over a...

I have nothing to trade, but I sure could use a few american persimmon scions. I've found a couple more male trees that I would like to change over. My female trees have scions that are so thin they never take a graft.

I am 70 years old and have COPD. The chances of me putting up a ladder stand any more is slim to none. I have two L110 Millennium stands that I love, but I cannot move them any more. Fortunately they are in locations that have always produced so I don't need to move them. A couple years ago I...

I have no experience making cider but have a very good friend that makes a lot of cider every year. He uses a large commercial garbage disposal. I have seen several people on YouTube that do the same. The pulp looks more like applesauce. Several times I've heard people state that you do not want...

How long have these trees been in the ground? I found that trees we rplanted on poorer soil did not grow well for about 3 years and then took off. It seems that they were putting all their energy into producing root systems to cope with the poorer soil. Once they were established, they really...

I like to think that most of the people on this site are a little more careful while pursuing our chosen pastime. I try to follow sensible rules in any action or activity I take part in especially when out in the wild by myself. BUT!!!!! Yesterday I was cleaning up an area around a huge old...

Congrats!!! Look forward to following your escapades on the new property.

I agree with everything Yoder is talking about. When I first bought this 25 acres, I found two open areas that were logging decks in the far past. There was nothing growing in either of them except a couple briar bushes. Even sweetgun wouldn't grow in these areas. A local fella told me that that...

I had 8 three year old chestnuts wiped out by the utility crew that came through spraying their ROW. My trees were 50 yards away in an orchard I am starting. Nothing else seemed to be effected though. I surmise that chestnuts are a lot mote sensitive.

I live in Greenwood County SC, zone 8A. Austrian Winter Peas works great for me. I usually plant oats about this time and then I sow my peas into it when the oats are about 16 to 18 inches high and then mow the oats about 8 inches high to protect the peas for a while. I have tried various other...

I put a tooth bar on my FEL because it would not dig in well at all. Think of it as a box blade in front of the tractor. All decent box blades have teeth to break up irregularities. I have about 600 feet of an old railroad bed on my property. The tracks and ties were removed many years ago. I...
