Nice use of several firing techniques, including a nice spot fire ! In a small burn block, what is the youngest Longleaf PLT you would consider burning in May-June "lightning Season" ?

Less than 5' tall I wouldn't do it or would expect severe mortality. 5-10' a careful fire can be ok. 15' + they are good.

Not sure either but you can't get claptons on youtube without a royalty!
I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine
PCP - don't work well - turkeys apparently don't like the "swarm of bees" sound - You don't think I didn't already try it did you
Goose its a DJI Phantom 3 - good reasonable price drone with great photo and vid capability.
LOL - I didn't think a drone would make enough noise to bother them. I once had a gobbler walking across a 5 acre field to me on the way to his death on opening morning several years ago. When he was about 100 yds from me, a helicopter came right over the field real low and he ran back into the woods. I have never before or since seen a helicopter come over one of my fields that low, and the odds of it happening a few seconds before I was about to kill a turkey have gotta be something like one in a billion.
I knew that morning I was jinxed, and the season proved it. Had to take extreme measures to get out of it.
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
We tried a buddy of mines drone in Missouri and it does spook the turkeys. They all ran and got under some kind of brush. I guess they think it's a hawk??
