  1. Dunstan chestnut are 99%American and 1 % chineese, this makes them blight proof but also causes the tall woodland American shape to become more of an orchard tree, I have several Dunstan and if you can find them are a good food source in a more open area, the nys chapter has genetically modified an embreo to still be 100% American but be blight proof,this is imo a much better option,as it can take over the woods as a dominant tree again (1 of every 4 trees you see in the woods were chestnut in the late 1800's) although man get the blame for shooting off the passenger pigeons the loss of this food source to blight and clear cutting was a much bigger factor.
  2. I found a lot.of these to be spot on. http://community.deergear.com/Article/HunterPetPeeves
  3. Don't forget the chiefs,... this group is against any indian imagery, which they use themselves to sell cigatettes,tobacco, and souvenirs. A slur has to be directed at a person or persons, the use of nigger in tom sawyer is not used as a slur, to say a word always is a slur makes no sence. This group has an agenda and are the most racist group I have come in contact with, it's their view or no other... mr.kanes speaking native page bashes us snowflakes, white privilege ,ect I belive the word may be used as a slur but am.intellegent enough to see and recognize a difference in its use.
  4. Don't forget the chiefs,...
  5. Yeah I am a pretty agressive hunter and I know my area very well and can get on a rooted bird pretty easily . It's moving thru the woods interested dark i worry about I don't use a flash light and like to get in close 50 yards or so .. hard to do with a nephew ,and if she's like her mom can't see in the dark at all..
  6. Well my nephew is distracted by those a aluring females so not sure he will be hunting, but a friend asked if I would take her daughter... I grew up in a house of boys and only have nephews.. not sure if I should push her as hard as I do my nephew ( hiking to areas ,ect) girls are tough right? I want her to really enjoy it but one day to hunt for her I dont know if pushing her hard 1- 2 mile walk in dark to best area will Taint her. Any advise?
  7. Yes a small group.from.outside insists that the name is offensive and should.be removed as it always refers to native americans, so I guess the sentence the redskins are playing with the wildcats this Friday can only mean native americans are playing with feral cats this friday, using their logic...
  8. yes but when there isn't concensus among them and it's the mascot that bothers some,which they use to sell their own good, and the word is attached to a name that in 68 years has only refererd to a scholastic sports collective in any news or.media article, just affixing a word is a slur is like wanting to remove nigger from Tom Sawyer, or huckleberry finn. What I'd nudity is offensive to some do we paint over masters art or clothes sculptures. Even simple words can be slurs, look at a young black man and yell BOY get over here and see what happens. This group wants every name affiliated with indians removed, chiefs,warriors braves,raiders, ect. Enough is enough, taking words out of context and banning them or using them yourself when they are offensive to you is about as unintelligent as it can be. calling someone a Penis is very different than discussing it in a medical class or sex ed. But it can offend some oNe? Do all words have just 1 meaning and that's it? Gay has several meanings and has evolved to the latest use as in th@that was gay ( meaning dumb or stupid) If I said the redskins are playing the wildcats do you think it means native americans are playing with feral cats? Or do you think it's 2 sports teams playing each other? It's seems basic english skill are pushed aside and context is forgotton so an agenda can be enforced.
  9. My old school.mascot was recently voted out by a school.board as being racist after 68 years. The residents were by passed in any decision making process. those that want the change claim it is racist and is always racist! Those that want to keep.it point out it has never been used as a slur or in a derogatory way and is in fact always associated with the local scholastic and sports teams. And has only.been loved cherished and many have said it instills the value of pride tradition and excellence. I have spoken to some native American I know and they do not think it is racist.I have tried to.hear why it is racist from the group.led.by mr Kane and there response is that it is and always is. many things offend many people.for.different reasons, but to make a word only be racist is like saying guns kill people to me. I understand a name.is a just a name, as grandpa use to say sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.
  10. Have over 2 dozen chestnut planted and they are further reseeding themselves. My 2 largest are dying from.blight but have reached 12 in in diameter in 15 years and have produced for over 10, they were considered a weed tree because they grow anywhere and grow fast.
  11. Most if not.all.raptors are protected, she should.be fined as if it was a wild bird, crazy people way to disney-a-fied. Thinking they are people and need to be saved, I wonder if she would do the same shooting a wolf off a kill..
  12. I agree doc ,but until we have an amendment to allow hunting and establish a game commission to control and regulate ,there will never be enough staff to do properly, this leads to what joe said you have to police yourself and your own hunting area. Can be hard to do if your in a high population area as you will not get enough tags to kill enough yourself, now you have to allow more hunters onto your land you pay taxes on to lower numbers... many will not do this and the problem goes on and on....
  13. Mother nature and population control....
  14. Does may have reabsorbed their fetuses, we will know soon enough how the fawn crop looks this year.
  15. And I've said it before if bowhunters killed more doe rather than waiting for a buck, crossbow would never have been considered, dec wants population control not quality control. That is why the push for doe only in areas..if a guy only eats 1 or 2 deer a year he will wait for a buck for sure.. perhaps they should just go to an ean a buck tag in those areas and watch doe take increase dramatically
  16. I've seen deer move a week or.more ahead of gun opening, but it's from the large influx of weekend warriors ,lighting up.campstoves,running atvs to check and hang stands, their scouting a week before season,slamming car and truck doors and cabin doors from comings and going running into town for a drink or materials to fix or repair something at camp. Let alone the re sighting of guns the weekend before the season not to.mention chainsaws and splitters getting camp ready. Deer aren't dumb living on the land your going to hunt and hearing nothing for months before season and then bam. A circus.moves into town..... that is the main reason deer vacate, the youth hunt is a minute number of participants and effect is minor when compared to hundreds or thousands of camps being opened weekend before season.
  17. We average 18 plus deer off 200 acres every year with a target of 10 mature doe. We have done this since 93, certain places produce and some don't ,habitat and terrain is key.380 plus deer that's a lot of meat!
  18. wow i feel for your parents when you were growing up...... lol nice!
  19. To early and too much snow pack,heavy rains and met.will wash more seed.away than what makes it to the ground,april is the earliest I would try it normally.
  20. Just not a fan of any ir camera, I have many cuddiebacks and like them but i want color ..
  21. I will say a commercial 5 gallon heater , electric or gas is another option. And are easy to drain.
  22. Depends on size of 12 volt pump, I have one that will push a large volume of water and that mat be to fast for a tank less heater. A slower flow (volume) will heat faster and hotter than a high flow and volume, the heater you choose should have info for pressures in installation instructions. a pressure shut off switch may be needed as will be a regulator,
  23. Two Track she can do the course on line.
  24.
