Late Summer Update (9-2-07)























Hello all. The summer in Central NY has been warm & relatively Dry. Great corn weather - and really decent growing weather overall. I had last posted July Updates - so these are the PEAK PLOT pictures from 9-2 - and updates. Above I posted a bunch of Pictures - and then some Cam pictures of the better bucks we've been seeing.




We've got growing CLOVER, CORN, SOYBEANS, SUNFLOWERS, and BRASSICAS currently. I can say that this year we do not have a plot fail, maybe a first! Some are doing better than others - but overall - every plot planted or maintained has been positive. The Apple crop this year is "better than average" - with more than 1/2 the trees producing good amounts of apples.




This year the 2.5 year old Batchelor groups have been using our property as "home base". Its been a definite change from 5-10 years ago wen we started our food plot program. Sure we saw the occaisional 8 point or bigger back then - this year, it feels like we've turned a corner in our managment plan.




I'll post some Fall Pictures soon.




Thanks for checking in.
