If I needed more trees I would definitely order from midwest deer. I've been eyeing what folks post on here about their own trees you have on order. You'll be happy. Big dog would be a nice addition to the list. I might be changing my order from mehrabyan. But got (3) farklin ciders on...

Use the silver never sieze, not the copper one. Copper can make thing corrode. Used to use motor oil or regular gun oil. Take it out every year. Do alot of shooting? Check the tightness with a wrench from time to time instead of cranking it on tight. Remington's hoke wrench is pretty...

IF you need trees down for whatever reason. This is the best time to do it for the deer. They could use the buds on the tops to nibble on. Today I Felled some young black walnuts that will be problems for my apples trees someday. Also, thinned out some red cedars that block the roadside...

what do you have for equipment sandbur? Have your vehiicles bring the water. Maybe not the best employee in the world. I call in sick when there's a dorught at camp....... My problem is my trees are too close to the main road. However, I plant where there's plenty of light and a...

Rototill can cause the same issue. Old seeds dormant in the field, there's a ton of them. IF you rototill, wait 2 or 3 weeks after you rototill and spray some herbicide on the young weed seeds. Switchgrass planting depth is like clover, 1/4 inch or so. Letting that rortilled field settle a...

Alot of folks tout liberty as a good tree. When does liberty start dropping and when its close to tuckered out. Looking for 1 or 2 good month of october drop trees for a spot on farmland. Tresspassers are bad rifle season, so I usually only bow hunt there. The other parcel in the area is...

IF you're hesitant to get the tree this year, maybe topwork a branch in a little less brighter spot on a tree like the north side. This will keep that branch wet longer, so you can find out if fireblight or scab is going to be an issue. I believe buckman is a dolgo seedling, they can take bad...

I spend a decent bit of time shooting muzzleloaders all year long. I do blackpowder competitions a few times a year. I probably shoot muzzleloaders 20 times more than centerfire guns. A few basic tips for modern ones. Clean your breech plug with a drill bit. Find a drill bit with the same...

I got tons of trees and I enjoy making my own grafts over the summer. But midwest has alot of nice crabs there. And on really good rootstock. If his shipping is on par with other guys pricing, his $40 trees are worth it. That tree oaknut is holding up could be a 1 year graft. Thats what a...

Cut them in a pile here n there. A they can enjoy the buds this winter as food. Great oportunity to collect sheds in the branches. B. use the fallen trees as windfalls. Hit it now. When the maples start late winter sugaring, the chemicals will not set in. Girdle a top ring, then below...

Sure it's rust. Wd-40 is an ok penetrating oil, not the best. But its easy on finishes. Get a really hot wet towel, put it on the outside of the barrel. Take a can of duster, turn it upside down. Spray a shot or two inide the barrel. Tube shrinks, while hot rag keeps barrel warm. Use a...

With an enclosed blind and some time to get used to it, could see deer not minding being near it.

I did a test on my meager 1/2 acre home plot. Rye with a bit of oats and clover. 1/3 was spread then till, till then spread, and last 1/3 was just spread. All sprayed before and rolled in with a lawn roller afterward. Till then spread seeming to be n the lead this past fall. All look...

How bad was digging the hole.

The older I get, the more fishing in florida sounds like a better idea than hunting.... Pompano bite is good this year.

As soon as you're done, you'll love it. Save time an weight, precut as much as you can. USe diesel mixed with motor oil as cheap stain. It'll be fine by deer season if you build it in the summer. Insulation is good and adds cost. Jusd do the floor and behind where you sit.

Enclosed blind is the way to go.... Went right from too warm straight to too cold here in NY, atleast it feels like it. 356, What is the deck made out of? I'd be tempted to throw a bit of a 2x4 on the right side of the ladder to help you up and down, Remember with the wind, it's not...

I seem to be at grains n clovers for 4 or 5 years now. Focus is moreo n soft mast past few years. Wondering what you guys have tinkered with over the years, and why you're where you're at now. I've been trying to shy away from fertilizer use. Bags are getting pricey. Hard enough to keep...

The old 3 sisters garden...... Use the mil oto trellis something else. AG soybeans won't trellis. Got to find a vine bean that the season works with milo planting time. cowpeas maybe. OTher dried bean types might work good too like common black and red kidney beans. Vetches would work...

E then C then F. Brother in law does AG services and dairy cows. Ag is aways fun hunting. Only downside is late season gets tough with no wooded areas to hunt. Need a way to keep deer cold is the key to AG.
