He looks like a young deer to me. Like maybe 30 months old or so. Having the background blocked out like that, it's kind of difficult for me to tell.

That $10 blind could net you a priceless deer. Good luck!

Our local TS didn't get to many in this year. Last years turned to kindling wood, and were never reduced.

If you handle the situation yourself, It could be considered land management, I suppose.

I carry a bag. In it is my little propane stove, lighter, utensil knife, pan,cup, eggs, venison sausage, pancakes batter, homemade butter, maple syrup and a large amount of that orange drink stuff. I through some apples, pears, plumbs, and peaches in the side compartment, along with some of those Little Debbie snack cakes. That should hold me over till lunch. The rest of my deer stuff, goes in my jacket pockets.

Plant the right food for deer; you will see doe well into muzzleloader season.

I watch squirrels run up and down the deer's back. Squirrels are heavy into gathering hickory, beech, walnut, and acorn nuts. Heavy crop of acorns on the same trees, two years in a row now. Five to eight in a bunch. Rare occurance.

Wheat is in the ground. Frost seed to Mammoth Red, Birdfoot Trefoil, Hairy Vetch, and a grass mixture next.

Radish are 23 inches. Oats are waist high. Deer haven't touched the radish. Eating the oats down to inches of the ground. Left a transport disc on one end of the field. About half way down to the disc, untouched. My Irish Spring method.

Not bad in the kitchen and baths areas either, LOL.

An early muzzleloader season was, is, and forever shall be the goal of the DEC.. Deer numbers have nothing to do with their madness. Just an excuse to proceed with their agenda.

Planting has been a problem with sugar beets here, the last few years. They have about a 90 day growing period after emergence. I consider May 15th the cutoff date for planting. I want a mature beet, about now. 2013, deer browsed on them when the bulbs froze. I did have one of the best radish crop then also. They reserved the right to pound them. They couldn't pull the beet bulbs, but radishes laid half eaten, all over the ground. The tap root was very large at the bass of the bulb, which might account for this. It had to of extended down into the ground several feet. Improved the drainage of that area better than a subsoiler would have, at a less expensive rate. I would plant them in some other areas of the farm, if I could get in early enough to do so. This is why radish fill the void. I can always get in, last week of July to plant, and the deer love them. This year however, the headed out oats are their preference. My oat stand is thinning quickly. Not touching the radish. I found the secret, LOL. Bubba was the real beet grower here. Maybe he might chime in.

Their nuts here!

Paypal is a major credit card and or bank checking account. Simple to set up. Ebay will link you over to set up. Best to do it before you buy. Some really sweet deals right now. I just bought 2 Dell Laptops D630's refurb.for $89 FF.. Last one lasted me 4 years.

I picked up a nice Nextbook 8" on ebay for 50 bucks, FF.

OP.; Your questions are very tough, if not impossible to answer. Heck, New York officials can't even answer them.

Can I borrow it, for just a few days, LOL.

It depends a lot on the time of the year it is, and also the carrying capacity for the statement, deer prefer young tender clover. I can take you to a clover field that is mature now, by November that field will be stripped to the ground, the clover heads go first. I cycle acres of red clover every year from first growing to mature. They visit it all through the fall.

It's late. Chopping started a few weeks ago. Bet the grain farmers, yet again will be chewing at the bit with 350 corn prices. The way some of the fields look around here, yields will be down.

So, we should take less deer as numbers are dropping? It's going to be tough, watching the deer go by for the first two.

Not in my book, LOL! Dig those G2's.

The seed ran me around $10/ lb.. Planting rate for 22 inch rows was 2 lb/ acre . I wanted rows so I could cultivate. The weeds grow quicker than the beets.

The basic thing to remember is to establish a good root system during the growing season. That way winter kill will be less. Maybe been nice to plant a cereal grain with the clover for two reason; one, to hold the snow cover more to protect the young seedlings during the freezing thaw cycle of winter plus hold snow pack on the ground to lessen freezing, wind burn and two, to draw in some wildlife this season.

I grew them a few years ago, on the advise of an other member here. Now mind you, this was only a one year run. Cost me more than the radish seed. They were no match compared to the radishes. Hands down, the radish were clearly the favorites. I should have planted a three year run, to get a clearer picture, I know that now. We did get some excellent pickled beets for the table though. They keep very well in the root cellar.

Cool evenings and a nice choice of salads. Hold the dressing please, LOL.
