Looks like garlic mustard. I doubt it was eating that, but could be wrong. It might have been one of those plants in the picture that's dead right now, but I can't tell what they are.

Put a bike innertube over it.

I can definitely see how the glory days aren't now in northern MN without the food. Doesn't look good unless there is some major land use change across the region.

I haven't dove into it, but didn't the landscape in the northwoods of Minnesota used to look different? I thought it used to have more food for moose and deer because of the logging practices?

Yeah, I'm more inclined to believe that than a restriction limiting the bucks killed made the bucks worse. It would have to be something like increased pressure, poaching, disease, population increase, etc. to make the bucks quality go down. Just notoriety for an area can increase poaching even...

Sounds like an isolated, special circumstance. I'd love to read see some data from that. Are there any links to harvest history or anything other than anecdotes? I could see that happening maybe if it was becoming popular and the restriction was put in place to limit bucks. But, then the...

Makes sense for a select few properties or neighborhoods that already have a filled out age structure (like I singled out in my post). But, for the majority of areas, I don't see that being reality. Where do you have an age structure of bucks where you have the luxury of excess amounts of bucks...

I might have to look at that post. It's been a while. I'm not sure how the ability to kill more bucks would equate to having better bucks on the landscape. You'd have to have an already filled out age structure with surplus bucks every year. Then you'd have to cherry pick the lowest quality of...

@Howboutthemdawgs Did you hear about the law trying to be passed in Kentucky to allow 2 bucks?

I'm just learning, so hot keys may get me in trouble. I like the safety net of putting in conditional orders with defined limits. I could see getting to the point where I would want to do that faster though. It does take longer, which is aggravating some times.

I use the Fidelity Trader+ software. There is a scanner built in with different filters. Here's one for pre-market, most actives.

I have a Fidelity account. They let you see pre-market.

Did you catch SPHL in pre-market today?

Saw that, and thought, no way that was going to go up more after that first 5 minutes. Oh well. Congrats!
