When I first learned to graft apples I went to a class where I had an instructor who worked with the state tell us that you only need 1 bud, but it's nice to have 2 just for insurance.
I quoted someone saying their local school had them and I asked for the name of the school. You quoted me and gave me a school name. I didn't go back to see that you weren't the person I was asking, but by answering me specifically when I was asking for a school that had litter boxes, you see...
What school? I want to contact to them to verify? I've heard this same story before and when contact is made, there is no proof. I'm also a teacher. Next year is 20 years as a high school math teacher.
I have a Gerbing heated jacket. On high it lasts a couple hours and is just enough to keep me on stand but not hot. It's only 6 or 7 watts though, so nothing powerful. I only use it in archery. I've considered buying more batteries so I can use it longer, but most of my evening hunts are only 2...
I put a little on a cotton ball and put 2 or 3 dabs on the tree above my head then drop the cotton ball on the ground. I rarely even smell it. It was a big discussion on a PA site I'm on.
First year I used turpentine as a cover scent. Very few to almost no deer hated it. Many hung up a little and tested the wind awhile, but most then just did their thing. I won't be out archery hunting without it. I hunt almost exclusively heavily pressured public land.
Here in NE PA we have lots of big woods and almost no ag. I sent in one of my last three deer and got it aged at 4.5. One other I figured was 3.5 and the other another 4.5. Both 4.5 went right around 110", the 3.5 I didn't measure but would put closer to 95".
I've found sheds as big around...
Late season I got out 5 times. No shots any time. Twice I came back to the house and had deer eating clover out of my yard. I just ate breakfast and watched them.
