Get that choke out yet? Telemark, I believe thereis some steel specific chokes out there. Shooting steel or bismuth? Used to use larger shot so it would pass through pheasants and grouse more often than not pass. #4 shot usually. NY has a law require non-lead ammo on state lands. Do it...

Anybody have a copy of clown's nose yet? Buckman and violi's are planted 30ft from the cabin. I have several violi's from last year planted at camp too. How you rate it compared to your other winter crabs? Think I got 4 violi's. I like that som of the buckman's on the tree are bird...

Giving this a bump to the top of the page here.

What kind of vacationing do you do mortenson? Don't worry my state of NY will of something stupid soon. They're overdue. Take the heat off of MN. I hunt and fish in alot of idiot blue state areas. Get about 4 rocks into a jetty and the stupidity looks for a coffee shop on the other side of...

Tubes seem to not be that successful. Often see over half of them failed. Maybe not the tube's fault, could be watering too. Buying trees are only worth it if you fence them right. Plant as many as you're gonna buy good fence for. Never used cattle fence, but I would only use it if I was...

Ever planted persian clover? The green cover milpa mix has it in there. Not sure what the clover looked like. Didn't see any unusual clover or trefoil like plant when I used that mix. I almost always plant oats with my winter rye. Sometimes wheat. I get wheat for free, so why not. Forst...

They dont clean them out completely. Used to hinge cut. Still do a bit, but focus on making a good bedding spot. LAst one I made hinge cut ontop of a few stacked logs to finish out a windbreak. I make a west and a north corner and a slight southern one. Covers the wind mos of the time...

I got some dolgo scion from turkey creek scion sale last year that was touted as later dropping dolgo. Wondering if thats big dog or not. Got it growing on a toringo, but will probably trim a bit off and graft onto a P18 this year.

swisher ones are pretty good. I'd spread fertilizer if I had one. Handle years of salt on pickup trucks plows.

I'd spray that, when things start to warm up. Doesn't need to be 65, but does need actively growing plants. And plants big enough to stick out of the thatch

Must be a pretty good dolgo to stil have fruit on it.

Used to be my muzzleloading season trick. Cut a few makes last 2 or 3 days of rifle season. Come back in a week or two and cut the high branches down lower, or do that off the bat.

Signal fire on m111. Was a twig in 2023

Liberty looks like a good one far as midwest's chart. I got 3 galarina's at home and 1 galarina on the farmland parcel I rifle hunt nov/dec. I can probably squeeze in 2 trees at the farmland I bow hunt. Debating the roostock for there. Got m111, g890 and p18 coming. Might just add a...

How does the 14 look and hold up? I thought 11 was the common gauge size. I use 10 feet of 4ft fence and works pretty good. A little nibble here n there, but central leaders out of 45 or so trees all have been good. I bought some surplus ends from a local hobby farm. Probably 500ft...

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...
