We had a few acres opened up around our cabin by a logger. I hired a guy to clean up the debris and take care of the stumps. He worked 1 day and then walked away. After my wife and I explored our options we decided to move up our plan of buying a tractor in 3 years to right now and clean it...
We decided we wanted to open up the area around our house. The DNR forester said we had some marketable wood and sent a list of loggers who do small jobs. Well the logging is done and now onto the next step of cleanup. Been getting quotes for mulching the tops and limbs as I don’t want to...
I was replacing trunk screens today noticed these holes on several of my older (7 yr old) trees. The trees look good otherwise. Is this from birds or something else and how can I combat this. I spray my trees about every 2 weeks with Imadan during the summer.

I have this listed on Craigslist for $125 but thought I would throw it up on here if anyone’s interested. The bow has a fiber optic sight, kisser button, and D loop. It’s an adjustable draw perfect for kids. Comes with Easton arrows, True Fire release, and a camo soft case. The bow was not...
I have an Oberg Plum, a Patten Plum, and a Waterville Pear that all look thin and have leaves looking like this. They were all planted in 2015 from SLN. None have ever produced any fruit. This is the first time they have looked like this. It has been hot and dry here lately.
As some of you know I’m a police officer. Yesterday while I was working I heard a motorcycle crash dispatched in the county that surrounds my city. The patient was described as unresponsive and gurgling and a med flight was sent to the scene. I soon discovered that the patient was my 18 year...
I’ve decided to get a plow for 1 of our ATV’s for next winter. I’ll use it on our driveway but the main purpose for it will be to plow our trail system on our 40. Many years the snow is too deep for the wheelers to get back for maple sap season. I’m going to keep the trails plowed all winter...
It’s time for me to start looking for new tires to replace my stock tires on my Grizzly 550. I don’t want to spend a ton so I’m considering the SunF A033’s which are modeled after the Bighorns. They are 6 ply and not radials but the reviews look good. My current stock tires are 4 ply Maxxis...
I haven’t shot a buck with a gun for 14 years. I’ve had plenty of opportunities but I enjoy bow hunting more so my standards are high. Yesterday that streak ended when I shot this guy. Disclaimer- I was on duty and he got hit by a car so I had to dispatch him. But I’ll still count it 😂.

I lost 2 trees this summer and I’m pretty sure it was from borers which I’ve never had a problem with before. I also found a few holes in another tree as well. That one’s still alive. With my schedule and weather I wasn’t able to keep up with my spray schedule this year as well as I like. My...
I’m thinking a bear or bears decided to mess with a few of my trees. Snapped 1 off completely, tipped another 1 over, and snapped off limbs from 3 others. I straightened up the tipped over one, hopefully it survives and we stripped the fruit off all the trees in that field. Damn bears
This tree looked fine all year and even has some apples on it. Last saw it 2 weeks ago and it was green. Now it looks like this. Any ideas as to what’s going on with it? It was planted in 16 from SLN.
I was going to spray my trees on Monday or Tuesday but temps are supposed to be in the upper 90’s. Spraying Imidan and Captan. From the stuff I’m reading I think I should wait till it cools off a bit. Lows at night are supposed to be in the low mid 70’s those nights.
This is a Yellow Transparent from SLN planted in 2016. It woke up and started to leaf but the leaves all started to wilt and shrivel up. Any ideas what happened?
It’s been a late spring up by me. Now we have finally warmed up but night temps dip back into the 20’s for part of next week. I’m running up to my land tomorrow to plant 2 trees and do some other stuff. My question is should I spread my fertilizer around my established apple trees when I’m up...
Just saw that deer are now infected and spreading Covid. As of now the Biden administration has not yet mandated that deer be vaccinated. A local news paper is recommending hunters have on PPE when field dressing their harvest so I’m gonna play it safe. I just ordered this protective suit so...
