This is a funny, tongue-in-cheek video of me finishing up my chestnut tree plantings. I haven't gotten around to posting it right away (about a month old). At any rate, I saw a bunch of deer on this day. They were fearless and persistent all day watching my every move! I'm pretty sure one little buck had it out for me! Be careful out there planting trees!
This is a video showing the planting of Chinese Chestnut bareroot tree seedlings (and Kiefer Pear trees) over the course of a few days during the Spring of 2018. I used approximately 36' spacing for the Chestnut trees. During this visit, I also found something unfortunate. Check it out and subscribe to my blog or YouTube page for more updates!
In accordance with my habitat plan (earlier video), I am creating some edge feathering. The purpose is to:
1) increase late winter browse for deer
2) remove invasive species
3) improve doe bedding
4) improve habitat for quail, rabbit and turkey nests, and
5) provide a place to plant some more beneficial wildlife trees without losing pasture/food plots.
Stay tuned for future updates and more habitat work by subscribing.
It was a tough day of scouting in the snow, but I made some interesting (and scary) finds. I am now ready to get to work on my habitat management plan!
In this video I discuss my habitat management plan that I developed to improve the deer habitat on the property I hunt and manage. This plan involves tree planting, hinge cutting, edge feathering, blocking, travel corridors, blocking, invasive species removal and buck & doe bedding.
I will be releasing videos over the coming weeks, months and years that will provides updates on the work of this habitat plan. Please like and subscribe for updates.
OVERVIEW: I ordered this pillow, because most of my pillows lost their cushion over time and the other memory foam pillows I had were quite hard. I like that the pillow doesn't collapse like some soft pillows, but it's not so hard that it hurts when sleeping on your side or back. This pillow is said to have "springs". To me, it feels like a thin gel layer inside that provides the pillow a bit of structure or rigidity. I am a stomach sleeper, but occasionally switch to sleep on my side and back. I like this pillow for side and back sleeping, but desire a longer pillow for stomach sleeping (I basically sleep with my head and chest on top of the pillow)
