Yeah, we’ve got Poison Ivy and Virginia Creeper here. PI grows both on hairy vines in the trees and on the ground in small individual plants. I typically see both PI and VC together side by side on the ground. The difference is PI is 3 leaves and VC is 5. My guess is that you just took a picture...
I agree with Jordan. Take a look at the Can-Am Defender before you make your decision. I have a 2016 Defender HD8 and love it. Had planned on going with a Ranger at the time, and glad I didn’t. Very similar to the Ranger, just seems a lot more refined. Cost for a new one at the time was actually...
I use toilet wax rings with a putty knife. Works great and cheap. Just set it on top of your truck in the sun for a few minutes and it will be the perfect consistency. Also, don’t have the mess that you get with asphalt based tree wound sealers.
One thing I would caution against is Titebond...
You could check with Bass Pecan too. They’re in MS, but maybe they could help-

Also, this guy is very knowledgeable and maybe able to help, closer to your area. Great blog -

I use what Cavey said - used dymomite tapewriters with non adhesive aluminum tape.

I love the link micros. I’ve got 7 deployed now. For the price, I don’t think you can beat them. I’ve sold all of my old cameras and went completely in on them.
FYI - there is a Walmart version out there that is exactly like the link micro, but is cheaper if you get them off of eBay. It’s...
FYI - I don’t have any experience with Spartans, but I’ve been running Spypoints and if they are using lithiums, they’ll show 100% until they just go out. Alkaline show the reduction in battery just fine. Not sure if it’s the same case with Spartans, but just thought I’d mention it.

Yep, I agree with Bill and Telemark. Go in around noon and make noise all the way in and out.
I actually did the same on Saturday. Came in on my SxS, left it running, cut the tree down that was in the way, and drove out. Actually bumped a doe coming in. Been checking my cell cameras and it...
I bought the stand frames from a guy in Pine Bluff, AR and finished them out myself. He was real reasonable on pricing, it was worth the 4 hr round trip to get the two frames. If you’re interested, look up Green’s Customs LLC on Facebook.

I don’t have any wooden box stands with skids at this point, but I believe I’ve seen a few pictures of some on this forum. Here’s a picture of a couple metal frame stands that I put out this year. Pretty simple design that works:

And... if you are putting up a gate to your property, make sure to account for your truck, trailer and a bit more room so that you can pull in or out without being on the main highway. I have to make a mad dash to the gate to lock/unlock, so that I don’t get hit.
I’m a matter of a couple of...
Another one - don’t use a forestry mulcher on a pine thicket in the south. Takes forever for the mulch to break down and you will attract all the beetles in the area to your surrounding pine trees... bad mistake

Are they all in the same general area? I’m wondering if they are just suckers off a really old female tree root system. That could explain the earlier fruiting.

Yeah, Bass Pro had the trade in days a couple weeks ago and had the Link Micro for $99. I already had one, but bought three more. I plan to just use the free plan for the time being and see if I need to turn up the plan on individual ones.
I had the cuddelink system and ended up selling it...
Exactly... I totally agree.
And then somehow, we can start believing that the amount of effort we exert and the amount of time we spend on doing our own improvements proves that we are better hunters than those who use bait/spend minimal time and somehow we are more entitled than those guys to...
I think if you feel that strongly against baiting, then I’m not sure why you would even consider the second. Yeah, you could do that, but then that’s no different than the other guy that you are concerned with. Trying to hold deer from “wandering” sounds a bit livestock-ish to me ...;)
