Quite a collection of fruit trees, Art. Your Kerr and Buckman are surely standouts!! Flattened grass under & around your trees shows deer visitations are high. I love those spruce trees in the background. Great thermal / wind cover next to apple & crab trees. Super habitat!
Your Yellow Dog trees you sent me seeds from, are still growing here.

I think you need to tell Ryan at Blue Hill to update his Buckman pic. Really glad I added that one to my spring planting order…

I hope it performs well in different climates.

I snapped this picture today. A waterhole is to the left, plums and spruce in the middle, and corn plot on the right.
The apple trees are behind me.

Keep the good pics coming.
You got a few seasons on me, but remember when the crimson maple in my mom front yard was a tiny thing. Now it's a 40ft+ monster.
Any variation in your big dogs? I think you got a few.
You have both noran and northland crabapples? Looking around for a few deer season droppers.
Saint Lawrence Nursery claims their liberty and enterprise can handle Adirondack winters up in NY. Know anybody in zone 3 areas with experience. Tempted to try hewe's in zone 3 too. Varieties sound good enough to gamble with on a single tree at least.

I don’t see any variation in Big Dogs. All are grafted except the mother tree. A couple of them rested this year.
I checked some more trees today and took some pictures.
When is the deer season you are referring to?
Today, and from memory, what is still holding fruit…
Noran
Courthouse
Violi’s
Trail
Yellow Dog
Guard Dog ( usually drops about Veterans Day, I need to check the mother tree which is growing in a ditch)
Another graft from a wild tree I call the Eden Valley crab, named after the nearby town.
Another graft from a wild tree than is labeled Mn 131 and tastes pretty darn good
There are a couple more
A Jonsib from GRIN that is not a Jonsib is dropping. My buddy calls it nonJonsib.
Those larger fruited dolgo seedlings are all good. Even the purchased dolgo from an area nursery still has fruit.
My location is now called zone 4.

The logging lease camp went from 3a to 4a. You look at the USDA at my home, I am in a tiny blob of zone 6. You can't sell a used snowblower anymore.
At camp, mid October to mid November is prime time. Otherwise many guys just hunt from their home areas. in NY you can bow hunting October till mid November. Then rifle hunt till early December, A week of muzzleloader late December. some places have targeted hunts till February.
However, go into the adirndack portion of NY, muzzleloading is a week mid October, then after that you can rifle hunt till early December. Alot of guys hunt up there because you can use a rifle sooner.
You got months and months to shoot a deer in NY. Now all bow season is crossbow too. Still cant fill those doe tags......
On top of that, you can shoot does in the summer with nuisance deer permits for farmers.

How long ago was that Kerr planted? I just ordered one to add to my collection.
