Send it! Persistence is King in the elk world. Give yourself plenty of time and don't give up

Sawtooth oak? Does anyone have first-hand experience with these? The leaf appears to be the same as a Shingle Oak, not sure if there's a difference? Main advantage I see is a quick production of nuts but not sure how they will do here in Iowa

Excellent. Good to know

Tks. Can u elaborate on that. Can u post a link and a quick run down?

Here is a current pic of the landscape

So embarking down a few year journey of a very landscape changing project. Full disclosure My farmer friends would 100% disagree with what I am doing! Reason for post is looking for ideas to build on. Here is the basic parameters. This is a project on which I live. Our intention is to live...

I also have a very large tree planting I'm working on right now, Out of curiosity what types of trees /shrubs are you planting?

We had a similar situation in our camp as well. ScIA

I have run the same planterfor a # of Years. JD7000. The weight being to light can be a problem on hard dry years or a late planting. To compensate I added prob 15 sticks of 1 1/4 rebar inside the tube. Had a buddy who had it on hand and worked very good for adding dead weight all the way...

Yes I believe you are right. Generally on the last afternoon of the last day of the group hunt some not all of the hunters are willing to offer up their buck tag to tag a doe. I can't say I have ever seen a buck tag on the leg of a doe on a sat morning on the opener... Kinda tells me we...

Agree with all above. Keep points very short and direct. Human attention span is very short. You are generally right on point as far as the topics go. We're never all going to agree 100% however letting them know your/ our purpose is to protect the quality and experiences of hunting for our...

Speaking from experience here ..... Buy absolute minimum for that tractor to get by. I will guarantee you will be upsizing it in the future when possible.... Atv sprayer/ atv broadcaster/ and a 3 pt tiller will get you by until then. If you buy a lot of implements sized for that tractor then...

Did running the tree sheer cause any damage to the machine( cosmetic or otherwise, windshield wipers/lights/hydo hoses?) Haven't personally used those but wondered if the cedars would be tough to get to the trunk.... After doing the project would a small escavtor w/ thumb have been better...

Sounds like you have a lot of knowledge on the subject, how ever real world experience IDK. Laying on the ground and cutting by hand tells me a lot..... have literally removed 10s of thousands, 0 by cutting. Pull/stack/burn. No chemical/ no mess/ good seed bed when complete....Personally...

Look for a used 1 in good shape. Last year I bought a practically new Sprayer Specialties 300 gall 3 point hydro driven with 40' boomwand GPS system for 5k off of fb. Same setup new was pushing 15.... Also Def recommend sprayer specialties, quality stuff and a local warehouse full of parts!

Need some controversy here. I have had many farms with tons of honey suckle, multifloral rose, etc.... I AM NOT A FORESTOR! I fully understand the desire to eradicate. (Mainly the multifloral) I am an advocate of the honeysuckle. IMO (very easy to remove if need to) Personally like it for...

I feel like this may be sarcasm

Agreed

Ask slighs opion on this topic. He seems to know the tipping point well!

I think I gotta disagree with skip on this one. My six year old was able to harvest a giant in velvet and I'm pretty sure it hooked him for life!
