    Tree tubes, the good & the bad

    Oklahoma was hit with the worst ice storm in its history in the last week of Oct. I went without electricity for 9 days in OKC and was scared that my seedlings, 80 miles away we’re going to be demolished. The tree damage to Post oak and Blackjack and ERC was incredible. But when I went to check...

    Doe hunt with daughter interrupted by 10 pt.

    I couldn’t get the video to work but here’s the buck. We didn’t shoot it. I was 100% sure my daughter would get a doe that evening. Then this buck I call Black Velvet ( because it still has dried up velvet stuck to his antlers) shows up. He is I think a 3.5 yr old and I’m hoping he makes it...

    Hybrid Oak ID

    I found these oaks not far from my house. They are 8-12 ft. Tall and 2 of them were absolutely loaded with these big acorns. It doesn’t really look like, as far as the leaf shape, any hybrid I’m familiar with. But the size of the acorn looks to me like a Bur oak crossed with something else...

    Freezing venison

    here’s one for you. The delivery driver at work got his first deer. I was gone hunting at the time and I just gave him a list of things to do and he and his buddy did them. I talked to him yesterday and he said the worst part was they ran out of room in their freezer because the quart bags took...

    Gut pile not touched after 2 days ???

    My daughter shot a doe with her crossbow last Thursday evening. I hunted there Saturday and the gut pile looked untouched. I’ve never seen that. I even saw 2 coyotes and a bobcat that day. I don,t get it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Bobcat videos

    Sorry I don't have the posting video's down very well. This nice Bobcat comes walking up the trail right towards me. At one point he pounces on a mouse or something. Really cool to watch. Then in video #2 he jumps up on an old hay trailer about 10 yards from me. Sorry for the shaky camera but...

    Walmart Chestnuts

    For those of you in Oklahoma. Walmart in Yukon on Garth Brooks has Dunstan Chestnuts marked 50% off. I got 2 today for $30. There are probably 15-20 left. Some are in bad shape but the ones I got were doing fine.

    reuseable grocery bags as grow bags

    I remember guys talking about having good luck with there bags. So I guess they air prune just like a grow bag? I know they are inexpensive. Any thoughts or advice on these would be appreciated.

    A typical day on the stand...

    This is a story I made up and text to a buddy of mine that was hunting @ 70 miles away. We kept reporting what we were seeing, complaining about the weather and so on. It was almost 3:00 pm and I hadn't seen a deer in hours so out of boredom I wrote this and sent it to him. It was opening day of...

    Acorn crop in central Oklahoma

    I don't know what it was exactly that happened, i know it's got to be weather related though. Our native oaks, Post, & Blackjack (cross timbers region) did not produce acorns, very few if any. The last couple of years they have been outstanding crops. I've been going up to my lease in Kingfisher...

    My chestnut trees.....what's left of them

    I started out with 22 from the chestnuts Wayne sent me but I came home one day and the squirrels had found them. It was a bit of a surprise since I had had 14 bur Oak that I had direct seeded and then potted sitting out for a month and a half and nothing had touched them. Then all in one day...

    I think my fridge is too cold

    I checked my chestnuts last week and I have zero radicals emerging. My sawtooth oaks haven't done anything either. Most of the winter they were in zip locks with holes poked in them so I put a couple of handfuls of potting mix in the bags and moved them into the fridge in the house. It has a...

    Bur Oak beds

    Last fall I dug a trench and lined it with weed cloth. I mix the native soil with some compost and filled the trench up and planted 24 Bur Oak acorns. After they were up 6-8 inches tall I transferred them into some power aid bottles with Kellogg Potting Mix. I ended up with 15 out of 24 acorns...
