I am gonna give it a try. Went with 2 Jehovah”s choice, 1 rut master, 1 steady Eddie, and one cAndy crab. They are expensive, hopefully they are solid. I’ll have them paired up against BH and Whitetail’s crab varieties in same plot. I’ll have a good 25 apple and 20 pear in this large plot...

I can get away with dropping handful of trees but no large scale tsi. The section where I have the yellow tsi circles is already moderately thick and dropping a few trees in strategic spots should encourage bedding close to the large food. The neighbor has ladder stands all over his place and...

See attached pics, inside blue is proposed bean/milo mix and approximately 3 acres with rye oat wheat broadcast in fall. I’ll likely run thick strips of sorghum to block sight lines in the beans. Green would be small less than quarter acre kill plot with blind setup for north base winds...

It’s hill country se Ohio. Currently it’s used for hay, it was sprayed in September for fall plots but didn’t seed due to no rain. No competition with in a mile or two as far as plotters. Property across road it nasty thicket and houses a couple studs. Trying to tsi this winter spring to bed...

what are your absolute go to trees in these categories for deer draw? Specifically breeds that you have purchased from online dealers or have stumbled across and grafted your own? I’m getting close to maxing out my space and want to finish my orchards with strong draw trees!!

Did you drill?

I’d be at the farm in early June for a couple weeks, when planting do you see any benefit to a late start date versus a may planting? That’s crazy height!!! Do they retain the pods well or is everything browsed off. I was asking in a previous convo what brand to run as I assumed real world would...

What company did u order the Milo from? I like the idea of a less dense Milo planting with the beans, maybe they can vine up the Milo….

Any go to bean type? I was thinking real world but would be open to suggestions having never planted them.

That’s kind of what I was thinking. The large field has a county road in view, I’ll have it screened but would also like to have the structure within to block road view.

I’m in SE Ohio, got pummeled by EHd. Moving forward I do have a couple survivor bucks that are really solid, one could be real special if he gets thru the gun. There’s a couple good 2.5 and 3.5 as well. I have one or two mature doe and 5-7 fawns based on my pics covering the 130 acres. I’d...

Has anyone bought from Jay Gingrich? Curious on how the trees look and are growing? I am looking to do an apple order and his apple trees would add to my crab dominated orchards. Curious if anyone can vouch for the quality due to his higher pricing.

I lost 10 of my blue hill varieties last summer. We were watering weekly and the trees looked like they had caught on fire by the end of the summer. The drought was wicked, I wasn’t sure if they caught some disease or if the drought just burnt them up.

I got a pic over night of a 120” 3 year old, this makes two bucks in this age bracket over three spread out farms in SE Ohio. Ehd has destroyed my properties like many on here. I have couple doe and handful of yearling bucks and fawns across the three properties. Both bucks have poor genetic...

With ehd destroying my Ohio herd, I’ll likely be attacking habitat plans during my trip in a few weeks. Would any of you reccomend planting barefoot pear and apple now? I have a good dozen or so trees I’d like to get in the ground, my other option is June which has proven to be dangerous with...

I’m in extreme drought in SE Ohio, my properties lie in the darkest shade of drought on the monitor that there is. One decent rain of a quarter inch since June 20. My new blue hill pears (12) have been watered weekly and often bi weekly with 5 gallons and the last two weeks the leaves have all...

I grabbed two of three of the new reveal 3.0. Anyone have thoughts, I haven’t got them out yet, curious how they are performing.

The prescription provided by the forester was for larger acre + cuts above the military. My thought was those cuts will serve as doe bedding being closer to the food. My idea was add cuts close to the military to give the bucks ideal bedding. I have found single beds on the military between...

I’m planning on doing some bedding cuts this summer during my trip to Ohio. My hill country property has no conifer, no plum, and minimal shrub minus some spice bush, a very little rose, and autumn olive. I’m looking to do some cuts as prescribed by Madison Raber on the far end of the property...

Anyone have luck with either Morse persimmon or any of their pears? I’m trying to find a place to buy persimmon. But bluehill is always sold out before I can get to it. Any other recommendations for persimmons that are a little more mature than seedling? Anyone ever try hybrid pear from Morse...
