Long day in Northern Hemisphere and Fathers day here in the land of the Free and Home of the Brave. Well, was purty warm yesterday in the woods. four big ladder stands down and up on this farm a friend hunts and tends. Really nice piece of ground lots of deer and turkey. Has two large cedar thickets, think that area was old over grown tobacca land. Just a real good area but it was logged about 40 years ago and has almost zero white oak, few reds and corn on 70% of it. That corn will still be up come middle of October I'm sure. Be tough early bow season.
Clearing one stand location we dropped a good winged elm. I took a 80" log back to the house with me. Gotta sharpen a small saw so I can kerf some staves out of it. I know I'm not splitting that. I noticed now all over for last couple years the Sassafras trees are all dying off from something??? Big mature trees and small trees. Very strange.

Out with my ruck walking this morning and coming up the hill these were in the road right in front of me. Guess this gob still after these year old hens. Nice bird. The ruck is filling up with bricks and my body armor plates. Time to switch to my big large ruck soon and really get the suk factor up in this nice summer training weather. Still cool this morning though. We rarely ever get above 95 here. I here every year why folks up north cant come shoot 3D in summer down to TENN. Then I look at the weather in Boston, Ma or NJ , CT and its 102, 105 every summer for a week or two.

Split some Mulberry and Elm staves yesterday. Here's Bart splitting out this winded elm after I kerfed it. In quarters now need to saw it into 8ths and peel /seal.
One of my Rangers buds from 19 Forgotton in service sent this pic in a store in a small town in Utah other day. This Bull was 431" net! Just sitting on the wall in a little place. Not even with a cape on it.
Finish peeling some wood today and put it up in barn. Should have about 100 staves and who knows how many billets put up. Keep from going on Wood Welfare or worse have to "buy some" !
