After looking at it, it has to be a royal limbertwig. Uncanny similarity. I’m going to have to try my hand at grafting for this old warrior. To survive what it has and to continue to produce as well, I’ve been impressed to say the least. Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

This tree started dropping this past week. The apples have very little if any disease/ pest issues. The tree itself has been through a lot the last few years- it was originally an old homestead that was converted to sprawling outdoor mall, and every existing tree/ plant was removed and...

how are they for fresh eating? they're high on my list

Great suggestions guys. I’ve begun the DP trap regimen but I do like TC’s idea, sort of like what is done with wood duck houses. I have them caged for the most part which provides scaffolding to the devils to attack, but next year, I might experiment with removing the cage once they begin to...

Hey guys, I have several trees producing fairly well now (finally) but, much to my dismay, my pear tree that was absolutely loaded has been stripped slowly but surely just before the pears were ready to pick. The other trees with several pears on them (younger trees) have experienced the same...

It looks a lot like a (yellow) Horse Apple to me.

those aren't walnuts. Thats a shagbark hickory next to that white oak. Those are hickory nuts.

The second looks like a black oak. I agree that the top is N red

Yeah swamp areas typically provide plenty of cover/ bedding in spots when/ where they can feel safe that serve as natural bedding/ sanctuary. It’s my favorite type of habitat as they also tend to provide a vast array of native browse compared to other types. From the layout described, you seem...

Without trails, job #1 will be determining most reasonable entry/ exit routes then meshing that with most beneficial based on walking the property Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

What is that bad boy? Looks neat and it's huge, almost like a Horse Apple. Taste good? Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

Ladino is great, but usually takes 2 years or so before it comes on really strong. Perhaps (as Dogghr suggested) using a nurse clover crop that establishes more quickly would help it come along. My climate is much different than yours, but I am a big fan of Red Clover and Arrowleaf. Crimson...

Yes, loblolly in particular is a concern in longleaf stands due to how much faster it grows. It will absolutely out-compete long leaf (almost every other pine will, too).

this. I've actually really begun to favor several of the red variety over white for reasons he mentioned. Water oak is the first that comes to mind. Good to great yearly production is as dependable as anything I've seen, and their draw a little later in the year, specifically when our whites...

There's virtually zero chance that he's a 2 year old (wouldn't even be 2.5 at this time of year). As others have stated, that brisket is extended past front legs and, frankly, antlers can most certainly be used to differentiate deer at the age in question. The amount of deer that have a rack...

U might be right Sent from my iPhone using Deer Hunter Forum

If he had just average brows, he would've been stepping all over that 170" line, but then again, I often favor shorter brows because it really makes the rest of the rack show its size. Big brows can make the other tine length look short and disproportionate.
