Todd, that one buck is incredible. I can't wait to see you put that one on the wall.

Thank you. I was hoping you would know. That buck is going to be a good one for sure.
That's a great buck Todd, is he one you know?

I have a feeling he is the buck I called Too Tall. I'll have a better feeling as his horns continue to grow.

Little bummed. Lost one of my huge pecan trees to a storm that blew across a couple of weeks ago. Was a huge beautiful tree. Must have been diseased, I guess just part of life.
Pecan graft I did last year. I don't know the variety. It came from my neighbors pecan tree. Throws a huge thin shelled pecan.
Caught about a dozen bass from my pond today. No big ones though.

That's a bummer on the pecan tree. My dad's place has a couple HUGE ones that I would pain me to see come down!

It's been so dry. My last rain was 14 days ago and that was only .07". I planted some chestnuts very early spring when we were getting rain so I headed to water the chestnuts. Wayne was kind enough to send me seeds last year so the least I can do is keep them alive. They are tubed and so far all are alive with a deep green color. Today a little cool front moved through with overcast skies but unfortunately no rain. So I decided to pop out the old fishing tube and do a little pond fishing. Fish were tight in cover not really chasing lures so tied on the Mega Salt Craw and started flipping into tight cover. Ended up catching about a dozen bass then did a little shore fishing on my smaller pond.
This is a doe produced twin bucks last year and now with another set of twins. A very good mother who is always on alert and I don't want to admit how many times she has busted me in the tower stand. Every time she enters the BBJ foodplot she walks downwind to make sure it is safe. I was tempted to shoot her last year so she wouldn't run off her two buck fawns but she is good stock.
Good size kitty cat
Eagle beans started off with a bang but with the dry weather they are now struggling.

The pecan has always been a heavy producer. You can also graft pecans to hickory.
The big boy is hanging out at the main plot. I have no pics of him in the BB plot. Very fortunate to have a couple good fishing ponds.

Haha. After hundreds of pictures and watching her so many times from the stand let's just same I'm pretty darn sure it's the same doe and she shows up at the same time almost every day.Not to be a smart@$$ but how do you know that's the same doe?They all kinda look the same to me

When the droughts hit it makes me glad that I don't farm for a living. We had the second driest June in history. For the month of June I received a total of 0.11' of precip. The first week of June I received 0.06 and last week I received 0.05". Went 28 days with no rain. So yes it is dry. My eagle beans are struggling. Without the rain there is just not enough growth to keep up with browsing pressure.

dropped the tube in the pond and caught about 20 bass. All fat and sassy. I was out in the tube and look over to my left and see a beaver swimming toward to me. He is obviously not happy with me being in his pond. He came about 20 feet away then slapped that tail on the water and it sounded like a shotgun going off. I think I might have pee'd myself. He finally swam away after a couple of tail slaps and then went on his way.
Button Bush is in full bloom. I didn't realize that BB had such a sweet smell. It was loaded with pollinators.
I have two button bush plants growing at home that were started from cuttings off this plant.
Hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable 4th.
God Bless

Holie Molie, I hope you have a heavy equipment operator on standby to get that deer out this fall.
