You are welcome Fish, I'm not surprised you are on board with the forest connect webinars. Viewing the past webinars as you do is great in that you can do it on your schedule. When time permits though the live ones are super because you get to ask questions directly to the webinar leader.
Your are right on about Peter Smallidge. Peter is top notch;he has been an excellent resource for me in everything timber. He goes the extra mile to answer any questions that come up. In the rare event that If he doesn't know something himself completely he has experts close to him that do that respond very quickly to anything asked. Becoming a volunteer in the NY Master Forest Owner program administered by Peter was a real windfall for me. The person he originally had running the program and reporting to him was Gary Goff. Gary was the best of teachers I have ever been exposed to. Besides being a knowledgeable forester/researcher guy he also is an avid deer hunter,grouse and rabbit hunter.. He retired from the Cornell work force a couple of years ago. I was lucky enough to have joined their volunteer group when Gary was heading it up. He taught me so much.
Because of all things timber learned from Peter and Gary combined I am selling my timber for over 800% of what I would have had they not have taught me what they did. It's really remarkable how much they have helped me and hundreds or thousands of others through their forestry training programs.

Thanks for showing these webinar times. But I am appointing you the official Cliffnotes reporter of these shows. I know that is an easy lazy way out for me, but I really enjoyed your first synopsis you did, and while I am signed on now to watch post broadcasting, your read is much more interesting.
800% increase in profit margin with timber??? Now you def need to go into detail on that one.
Step up to the plate, Chain, the management disciples are counting on you. Lead us down your road. Don't let me down.

The 800% increase story will be shared dogghr. It is a long story though so it will take a while to write it down to what anyone might want to read. Also there is some sensitive stuff in that story and I don't want to persecute anyone; those that try to or do take advantage of us unknowing landowners will have enough demons to face without me adding to their DEMISE. Further some of those that helped me realize the increase might not be too well thought of by the bad guys and repercussions could occur. Some of the bad guys of course are in control of a lot of what happens in the timber industry in this area. Every area could be different. So I'll need to figure out how to tell the story and get the points across in a positive manner that other landowners might benefit from without praising or bashing anyone in particular. A story about receiving 8 times more dollars than expected will go viral as they say among the lumber industry so caution on my part is necessary.Thanks for showing these webinar times.

As to the cliff notes reporter job, thank you for your confidence in me. Once I get my Recreating A Deer Woods thread up to the current calendar time the cliff notes reporter I could be unless someone else would like to do it.. Or maybe the job should be done on a revolving basis by anyone who has really learned a lot or who is moved by a particular webinar.

Todays Timber Tax Webinar was excellent. The presenter started out and reiterated a few times that many accountants are not all that familiar with timber tax laws so it behooves us to know this stuff ourselves. This webinar will be available for on-demand watching in a couple days.
I highly recommend it whether you intend to do a timber harvest soon or not.

No tilling thru high residue webinar today 4/10
Presented by USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service - Science and Technology
National Technology Support Centers
No-tilling Through High Residue Conditions
Apr 10, 2018 2:00 pm US/Eastern
What will you learn?
This webinar will focus on management strategies for planting into high biomass (>6" depth and 10,000 lbs. of residue) to ensure good stands. High biomass cover crops are a key to improving soil health, with many farmers growing an additional 10,000 lbs. or more of plant material resulting in a thick (>6") layer of mulch. These conditions require a different strategy for planting to ensure good seed to soil contact. This webinar will cover adjustments to planter, drills and other equipment to ensure good seed to soil contact. Learn more...

This New York class is not a webinar but it looks like a great class for anyone of us within driving distance. It sounds like a perfect class to prepare one for conducting spring browse surveys to determine deer population level relative to available browse. It really is sort of not relevant as to how many deer are on a property but rather how is the property handling the current level of deer. If there is no browse left in the spring then there are too many deer regardless of how many there are and vice versa. 50% of preferred browse left is ideal but for me I'm happy with 20% of preferred browse left come spring(note-20% left is acceptable but not a scientific decision just common sense to me). I would really enjoy attending but already have a commitment for May 5th.

We have two more classes to schedule and will keep you posted on those.
Here is the information about the classes:
• Class Format: We offer two GOL classes:
The Level 1 class focuses on introducing the participant to open face felling and the development of techniques to safely use it. Topics covered include personal protective equipment, chainsaw safety features, chainsaw reactive forces, bore cutting, pre-planning the fell, and understanding hinge wood strength.
The Level 2 class focuses on maximizing chainsaw performance through basic maintenance, carburetor setting, and filing techniques. It also covers limbing and bucking, spring pole cutting, and safe felling practices.
• Time: 8 am – 4 pm
• Instructor: Bill Lindloff
• What to Bring: Please bring personal safety equipment, including a logging helmet, hearing protection, and logging chaps, along with a chain saw. If you do not own these items, some will be provided during the class; the one exception is the logging helmet, which you must supply yourself. Lastly, please bring a packed lunch.
• Cost: $25
• How to Register: E-mail chainsawsafety@bassett.org or call 607-547-6023 and ask for Game of Logging, with the following information:
If you have any questions, please contact NYCAMH at 607-547-6023 or chainsawsafety@bassett.org.

Level 1
We have two more classes to schedule and will keep you posted on those.

Topics covered include personal protective equipment, chainsaw safety features, chainsaw reactive forces, bore cutting, pre-planning the fell, and understanding hinge wood strength.
The Level 2 class focuses on maximizing chainsaw performance through basic maintenance, carburetor setting, and filing techniques. It also covers limbing and bucking, spring pole cutting, and safe felling practices.

Here is the notice for the annual Timber and landscape tree tax webinar. If you can't watch it at the live time they set it up so it can be watched at a later date but you don't get to ask live questions. As in anything taxes it pays to know this stuff before you plan your timber cut and even if you use an accountant you will likely profit from this webinar with any future timber cuts.
