    Acorns

    in Deer Hunting

    Posted

    Yup, it's a low yeild year on the acorns. I have 1 tree that the deer normally tear up the gound underneath it eating them and this year nothing. Checked a couple other trees on my property and it's the same story. Glad I have a couple small corn feilds to feed them and keep them around.

    Opening Day of Bow Season

    Well I couldn't make it out in the am but went in the afternoon. Left home about 2:30 for the hour drive to my dad's place. On the way I saw 3 differnt deer already feeding, figured I was in trouble. Got to dad's and chated with him for a few and headed out. Spooked 2 does in the neighbors bean feild on the way out. Some $%%$ had taken down my ladder stand that I had there since last year. Didn't steal it, just layed it on the ground. Well the rachet strap was gone so I decided to just sit on the ground in a spot I have sat at several times just down from the ladder stand. I am getting set up, making sure no branches or brush in the way and I notice a branch that is tied back out of the way. Further checking and there is my rachet strap, they used it to tie the branches back. Not only did they take down my stand but set in my ground spot as well. Well I set down with my back to the fence and about 6:00 I had 3 turkeys come out in front of me. They worked their way out in the beans about 40 yards and one of them started clucking. Next thing I know there are a dozen of them right in front of me about 20 yards feeding. Well the feed off to the right and went through the fence row onto the neighbors. That was it for the night. Great to be out in the woods again.

    A survey would be your best bet. I am suprized they left that beat up prop on their for you to see. Did they say how it happened? I would make me nervous what they hit and what other damage was done. With a survey you would have a better idea if they damaged any stringers or other structural members that are going to cost you big time in the near future to fix. Good luck.

    There is no signs of any bucks there so far. But my daughter and I will be out there hunting Sunday. Hopfully she will get something. This year we are not shooting any does there till the late hunt to make sure that the fawn will make it.

    Did you see any sign of the yotes like you did this spring? My bet is if the mother isn't around that fawn don't stand a chance. I hope to make it over there mid week and hunt some and check things out. Bought a new ladder stand so I can get up off the ground, only trouble is I have to take it down every day when I am done. My uncle is a little strange about stuff like that but it's his property so I have to follow his rules.

    I think they are splined together, if so you tore the spines out would be my guess. If by chance they are just keyed you may have just sheered the key which would be cheaper. This is the same drive that had the beat up prop right? I know when I took the splines out of my stinger outdrive it broke at half throtle and rummbled a lot. I had no forward or reverse but could idle in gear without much noise.

    Hopfully the mother is still around. Then again with all the yotes Rich has seen out there she must have mommy or someone protecting her. Is there much sign around there Rich? I haven't been there yet this year to look around.

    One more thing to note Steve. You have to bond to the water lines with #4 copper. This is based on the 200 amps your have coming in.

    Mike

    Is that out of one of the service panels or the meter box? If it's out of the service panel do I need 2, 1 to the stake and 1 to the water pipe? and what happens when you have all plastic water lines?

    I will have 1 mast coming into a double meter socket. There is a bus bar inside the meter box to feed both meters.There will be a lead coming out of each meter, 1 going to the upstairs apartment and the other going to the lower apartment. They will both have new 100 amp service panels. My question is how big do I need to make the service wire running down the mast to supply 2 seperate 100 amp sevices.

    Ok folks I need some help. Trying to upgrade the service from 60 am to 100 amp on both apartments. The mast goes down into a double meter socket, what size and type of wire must be used from the weather head to the meter box? I have been told aluminum will work and then I am told it has to be copper, witch is right and what size do I need. Thanks
