    Transplants

    I see them get rubbed some. Not very often, but you'll see it. Usually doesn't kill the tree.

    Tree Tubes on Pine & Spruce Seedlings????

    Small white pine definitely will need protected. They love to eat the needles in the winter and rub them. Once they get pretty good sized they don't seem to care to eat the needles as much

    Who is shed hunting?!

    16 of 50 acres is super good. What have you done to turn it from poor to outstanding in just 3 years?

    Switchgrass

    Here's some photos I took this past weekend of the timber/field edge. You can see there is already a pretty good 10 or so yard wide swath of grass/brush between the timber and field edges. Think this is a good idea to try and convert these areas to switchgrass? My idea would be it would help as...

But thats what I've used the past two winters for multi flora rose and honey suckle. the mfr i basal bark srpayed and the honey suckle was stump cut and then treat the stump.

    Is this recommended to do anytime of year, or only during dormancy in the winter?

    Thorny Locust Removal

    I have a quite a few thorny locust. From my research killing them isnt as simple as just cutting them down. Seems like I need to cut and treat the stump. What about girdling them? I couldn't find anything about that. Or anyone have good luck with just cutting them down? Anything less than 10...

    Tree Tube Options

    Im going to order from Mike Hamilton with Timber Management, seems to be a really good price from what I have found. Think getting a dibble/planting bar is worth it or a shovel will do just fine? Im planting bare root seedlings from the state nursery.

    Thank you Skip. You are right. Better to just pony up and do it right the first time.

    Tree Tube Options

    I just ordered 75 swamp white oak and 25 wild plum from the state nursery. I'm a little sticker shocked at the price of tubing the oaks. -I've read that plum dont need to be tubed. Thoughts on that? -Anyone have experience with using corrugated tube versus a tree tube? Im sure tubing will...

    Switchgrass

    I might try and establish some switch grass strips to border my timber/ag field lines. I've watched lots of videos and read through here a good bit. Honestly feeling overwhelmed having no experience with this and so many do's and don'ts. I've spent hours watch youtube videos and reading on this...

    Deer Classic

    I didnt got this year. But I really enjoy going, minus the insane crowd at times. Yep, more and more realtor booths, unfortuantely fewer and fewer deer and sheds brough in each year. My favorite part is seeing all the deer and sheds brought in, unfortunately it seems to keep shrinking.

    Who is shed hunting?!

    Im at 35 on the year. Its not been easy, usually just coming up with 1 or 2 each time out. A couple weekend days I've hiked over 10 miles and came up empty. Few reasons...1. fewer deer than usual. 2. More people than ever shed hunting 3. Mild winter has the deer spread out.

    Sheds still hanging on! % left?

    A few still holding on cams. Last weekend out shed hunting some public I bumped a group of deer. There was a half rack and a full rack and they actually started to spar a little bit and I was eagerly watching thinking I was going to get to see the half rack get his one side popped off, but nope.

    OFFENSE!! 2 Bills to support!! SF 293 & SF 247 EMAIL IN!!! What a great change!!!!

    I dont think ive chimed in yet on this thread, been following along though. I'm in favor of the bill as proposed. As little as two acres getting a LOT tag is crazy to me. Its been repeated by others, "what is best for the resource?" I dont think people shooting up to three bucks a year because...
