Split Toe,
I believe whitetail crabs is Zone 5B. They're about 1200 chill hours. You're zone 7ish and 1000 chill hours. Should be good to go with almost all of their varieties. I'd double check on redfield or wolf river for chill hours.
LAte / Deer season more friendly from him. Droptine, crossbow, 30-06, and winter gold. Winter gold will be the latest dropper. Trueky is new for him this year and golden hornet isn't talked about too much. Guys like droptine's agressive growth and drop times. I personally like crossbow. Very insect resistant, good growth, and good branch development (shape / angles).
Far as his common offerings. Redfield, Arkansas Black, and enterprise would be good choices. Sheepnose is likely good too, but not talked about much. Liberty is more early cotober. Golden delicious is a good choice, but it does get cedar apple rust. Golden delicious is a very good polinator of other trees and drops late october. Gala isn't too bad either. Best secriptions of individual tree varieties is cummins nursery.
Terry's shipping costs are expensive, but honest. He gives you a well developed tree. Many nrseries give you a 3-4ft tree, Terry gves you a 5-7ft tree. His expensive to ship 6ft box came with a few trees with the tops bent over. The extra shipping propbably gives you an extra year.
IF you're concerned about how long the trees will live, or want some real monster trees, ask him to give you some antonovka rootstock trees. Otherwise you get a B118. Which is a good rootstock. Probably a 50 year or so tree about 18' tall maybe 15' wide Antonovka's can ladt for centuries, very significant roots, and you get a 25' tall tree maybe 20' wide. What is grafted to the rootstock can effect the size.
Because of shipping, I'd order about a dozen. Thats the max he can stuff in each box. MY dozen pick... 3 droptine, 2 crossbow, 2 enterprise, 1 liberty, 1 redfield, 2 winter gold, and a golden delicious. Thats a good blend for deer and you. reffield is good to add to cider. Hewe's or harrison is a good choice if you want to make hard cider someday.
If you plan on getting other trees from elsewhere, or want to make a large setup. Go with 5 droptine, 3 crossbow, 3 winter gold, and give the turkey crab a try. All winter hangover or eliza's crab is a better very late dropper choice, but his winter gold is pretty good.
Crossbow is a good choice for my camp up north because I have some bears up there. Feel his tree is similar to chestnut crab. Shorter branch length with good angles. Also, every tree got hammered well by japanese beetles and ants at my home. I spray monthly so far. Crossbow barely got hit. Literally day and night. The more "disease resistant" the variety was touted, the more the buggers ate it. I'd love to cross polinate crossbow and enterprise or redfield and see what they would make. There is something about that tree, taste of the leaves, or some repelllant chemical it makes. Beautiful dark red young branches too.
