You should have no issues , usual rule of thumb is 10 to 15 hp on drawbar per bottom.12 in. To 16 in . so. You should have more than enough make sure to set it up right to make 1st furrow and then readjust so wheel follows in furrow and plow is level by adjusting you 3pt arm or possibly the plow itself if it has off set pin adjustment.

The chestnut was not in the adirondacks and elk were not numerous there either, their range overlapped with woodland bison and the american chestnut.

Looks like 1 week of almost 70 and then back to freezing next monday....

Historically the eastern elk was smaller boned and smaller horned, much like the woodland caribou,vs the barren ground caribou. Same species but different, like the Yukon moose and eastern.. just different but the same, whitetail are broken into several subspecies as well and you cant take a northern whitetail and move it south it wont do well ( was tried many times) same deer but different each adapted to its specific enviroment

Western Herds in Pennsylvania and Kentucky and Tennessee are doing well but as grazers they range far and are limited by landownership and land use..

Birds were gobbling good this am years 30 or so from.one bird and 6 or 7bfrom other close to the house

They are a seperate eastern elk were Woodlands where western are.grazers as mast.producing trees are uncommon, more.poplar and.pine, eastern were dominated by chestnut, oak,beach ,hickory

Yep wood duck house fell off tree

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deforestation_in_the_United_States It's pretty simple remove the habitat and shoot a few and game.dissappears.. imo habitat is the most important . Just like creating a sanctuary for deer to a property does more than a food plot.

Remove the woods and they are lot easier to see to shoot

Elk were lost by loss of habitat and over hunting but remember most of nys was cleared of timber by mid 1800s . Only pockets and deep ravines were inaccessible. Remove the food chestnut primarily and all wildlife suffers no cover and no food.. now shoot the highly visable game. But my.post was showing historical finds of elk, just like some area are predominantly hemlock and others maple or oak go to ohio and hickory and walnut are prevalent throughout certain area, elk would be in greater numbers where habitat was better for them just seems to follow the distribution of chestnut rather closely when compared

My fishers disappeared for 18 months and bobcats showed up on cam.frequently, now having taken 3 cats the fisher are back on camera and no bobcats.. coincidence???

April 14th is latest drop I've seen and I know it was thay day as it wasnt on lawn the evening before but was there in am.

I forgot a browning last year and found it just before Turkey season was still taking pics from dec 20th to april 27th when I took it down

Should be gobbling good in next couple of weeks as prime breeding starts. Nice to hear in the mornings . Usually a lot calmer when season starts may 1st.

Found the sheds to a buck I let pass due to its broken beam , should be a good one this year

They would be on edge on on face as face is treated and they are after glue between layers

They do that to attract a mate . Bang on an old number 10 pail I have on a stump as well ,sound like a riveter making a ship

Prolly has a carpenter bee in between layers or asian beetle..

Breeding season ,same as skunks coyote and many others, are you sure it was his hole or was he going for a visit to his lady???

I've re-made pots. Calls that have cracked or slates have wore out on . Made smaller or new shape a rounded corner rectangle on walnut.. strikers ar a lot easier imo.

Gonna need to do. A lot more scouting as winter habitat project will definitely alter trails and movement, bedding areas were created and are already being used heavily. Going to build a couple more boxblinds ( getting older I like the comfort) will continue to hunt when ever I can.
