Yep. Three years running with some of the best acorn production I’ve ever seen.

Bumper crop in my yard too.


Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Good, hopefully it'll keep them off the corn piles again this year. I think that the huge mast crop last year, saved the lives of a lot of bucks in AL. Wouldn't hurt for it to happen again this year. More the better, IMO.

100%. There seems to be a lot more bucks in the 3-5 year old age class this year so far.

My white oaks are loaded again this year as well. All the deer I am getting on camera this year look healthier compared to years past. I am sure all this rain and green around is helping.

Should be, I he amount of rain here has been unreal. I’ve always read the years with the most rainfall will be the years with your best bucks for antler development

I hope every single one of them rots as soon as they hit the ground, except for the oaks where I have cameras on public.

Just a FYI, yard trees are not a good indicator of what's going on in the woods when it comes to Acorn production.



"Why do you ask"?

Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.

Why is that?

They often receive additional resources that woods trees don’t and they generally have larger crowns with less competition.

For the guys that have saw tooths and chestnuts. How long did it take for them to start producing? Mine are in full sun and I keep them watered, fertilized and weed free but they are only 3 years old. Just trying to get a ballpark idea

Sawtooth 5-7 years. I have chestnuts that are 3. I’m waiting on them to start.

Good deal sounds like I might not have to wait long for the chestnuts. What diameter and height were your trees when they started producing TurkeyJoe?
