    Seed Sources

    Looking to do a large frostt seeding this year. Mostly at home in my every 3 week mowed area. Also need to stock up on general clover blend. Looking for a good deal on a 40-50lb bag of clover. Think dutch white might be better than ladino for that kind of use.

    Good basic new pump shotgun

    I have both a 870 and 500 in 20 gauge for myself. Not 100% sure whats in the box, but told the oldest kid to get him one. Wanted it blued and not parkerized. Dont think he'll yake great care of it. Bluing will look better longer. Not a huge fan of NY laws, so buying another semiauto is on...

    Any experience using Dr Craig Harpers cocktail in freezing weather.

    Think I'd stick with something diesel based. I've used the green picloram based gallon stuff in the winter at home on vines. Worked well. I've girdled large trees with a 5/8th paddle bit with 3:1 diesel n triclopyr with good results. Did a few maples the year before with the green stuff...

    Trail Blazing Experiences

    go 2 or 3 paths wide if possible. A spot or two, especially at intersection, make an extra dead end path or two like 100 yard out. Great Treestand spots. Maybe even clearance cut around some important trees like a larger oaks on the southern side more. Many trails have been made with...

    Aluma-hyde gun painting?

    Wow I am lazy. Bought the cans but didn't spray yet. Scooped up some tiger stripe stencils on amazon today. This guy is using something different, but seems to look good with what he's using. Kinda debating a base color, or adding stencils to the black. Going more tree bark greys n...

    Drone Laws

    I asked santa for a bait boat for christmas. A boat to bring bait out deeper in the ocean from the shore. Drone are used for that too, some states they're illegal. Some places fishing for sharks is illegal from the shore, o they can probably nail folks on both violations. I wih they would...

    Trail Blazing Experiences

    Many surprise stumps in there? Just need one bad one to lip the tractor. What size are we talking here. acres and brush size. Not breaking your tractor with a tire puncture, a rollover, or breaking your 3 point being too rough on the box blade has a price...... IF you can push them down...

    Earliest you've collected good scion.

    Going hunting to spot I dont get to too often. Was looking to get some scion from a big dog and blue pearmain tree there. Will hydrate, sterilize, and seal them up If I collect some. Going to be pruning while I am there anyways. I did some scion from mid january last year and it did ok...

    Stuff getting hard to find powder, primers, etc?

    Big places to order online look like theyre out of some popular powders, but not a ton is out of stock. USe winchester 748 for both 30-30 and 308 and imr4227 to slow down the big bores. Plenty of that. maine powder house seems closed since the spring. They can not find powder. I have...

    Savage $100.00 rebate

    I shot my 308 axis 5 or 6 rounds then stopped. Every 2 or 3rd shot the gun would go off well before I wanted it to. That trigger is not for everybody. Gto too many cheap 22lr's in the safe. Too out of shape to lift a new heavy safe to the 2nd floor. Dont shoot enough to know a bunch of...

    Bluehill 2025

    Alot of places sell leftover trees at a discount towards the end of the purchasing part of the tree season. Might be doing that too. I can imagine the early droppers don't sell as good. Probably going to get a trailman in the mix.....

    Protecting tree seeds

    Many guys on here, me included trying to fight the odds of nature. Trees grow thousands of seeds, but lucky if one or two make a seedling. Hoyt is right, start them in controlled conditions. Then cage them. I have gotten away with 2ft x 4ft tall 1/4" hardware fabric / rabbit cage material...

    Local Crabapples your keeping an eye on?

    This tree is about tuckered out for the year. Been a bit more interested in the tree next to it, but they seem to be very close. Noticeably biennial, but makes fruit every year. They alternate too. One tree puts out while the other rests. Not a monstrous winner in the crabapple world...

    Are the glory days of deer hunting coming to a close?

    The glory days of hunting the 2025 season are over....... Going to be 5 degrees Friday morning. Last weekend of rifle here in NY, then 10 days of muzzleloading. New flintlovck is still cutting patches on the rifling, but can still make a good 70 yard shots with it. Family is lazy...
