Being down here for the weekend what i noticed other than the terrible weather is how many acorns are on the ground around every oak i have passed. It was a great year for white oaks by me or there’s just no deer to eat them. i may have to change plans for youth gun and regular gun.

percent of die off estimates?

must be pretty bad if they actually did something in season. That must be where all my booners went :(

I have a couple 30” populars in one of my plots that look pretty rough spring to now. maybe 50% limbs appear dead and no leaves. i started looking at more populars or popel on the property and some appear fine but i was just wondering if people are seeing any issues with theirs? Any other...

One section of the program I found very interesting was about the actual deer numbers. -In Ohio do we have a real issue? My take was the two podcasters wanted stuff to change so the age structure improves on their properties. -I hunt Norwest Ohio and Southeast and this year I have seen...

-Hunting is pay to play -you want to ban baiting and cell cams on public go for it but telling a free man what to do on his own ground is where it starts to bother me. -Let's not pretend people who bait and use cell cams and bows that shoot 50yards (CROSSBOW & COMPOUNDS) are Fred bear or...

My take was basically Rex said nothing is going to change. Rex did say however cdw could lead to the outright banning of baiting. I love my crossbow though, I got a ten point that was supposed to be 7 or 8 hundo marked down to like 350 because the store was going out of business 8 or 9 years...

Excellent work! I hope mine looks like yours some day. Keep the updates coming.
