Every evening the deer are on the new seeding, grazing for the Birdsfoot Trefoil planted last year. Tender. While part of the cattle herd look on.

Upstate, as in NY? Where?

Mark in Upstate · Feb 23, 2018

I live south of Sharon Springs on NYS Rt 10, north of Cobleskill. Hamlet called Gardnersville.

Get your nuisance tags and start clearing them out.

Looks like beautiful country!

2003, when we had a Valentine's Day blizzard, weeks later when the snow settled , the deer filled the hills. One afternoon there were 75 on the knolls digging.

Thanks. What I call ACG country!

larry@stinescorner · Feb 23, 2018

Is the Wood King near Gardnersville?

Bob Bancroft · Feb 23, 2018

No, I don't think so. Just somewhere over in that general area.

Nice countryside around there. We go through there on 90 or 88 three or four time a year to visit the kids near Boston.

dcarp · Feb 23, 2018

It is pretty country for sure. I graduated from SUNY Cobleskill in 1967, enjoyed my time there.

What nuisance tags? Ohio does not have them. Or at lest the nortwestern part.

Yeah - I would guess a deer eats 1/3rd of what a cow does, so it adds up - my brother has a blueberry farm, and it's a constant battle - he calls them long legged rats
Loren is 25 miles or so west of there - I hate the taxes here, but NY has some beautiful geography

You can kill them in Ohio but you have to let them lay, you are not allowed to butcher them after you shoot them, which I think is pure BS

RBoots · Feb 23, 2018

Yeah, that's crazy. Not sure if it was the law or not here in MI, but a buddy of mine got a damage control permit for deer a few years back and said he had to use or donate the deer, weren't supposed to let them lay. The orchards around me used to dig a big hole every year, then get their damage permits. They'd shoot between 30-90 deer every year and toss them in the hole and cover it up. Fine with me, too bad they wouldn't use them for anything. That was probably 25 years ago.

Loren lives in East Springfield.

I bought a bucket loader from Fassett for my 756. Still original, Hesston 340L.

I must drive right by your place when I go visit my Cousin Earl and his wife Viv on Gardnersville road!
I bet you know him and his brother Wilson who used to own a farm on Rt. 20 near Sharon Springs.
