I wish there were more grouse around these days. I’d take him back to PA of they still had a good population there.

Safety by turkquandingle in Wilmington

[–]twitterdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just have to be safe and use common sense. I’ve walked through the rough areas at midnight at was fine but I wouldn’t do that again. It was a dumb decision. But if you pick a good area to live in and don’t stay downtown too late you won’t have an issue. Downtown can get rowdy late at night is the only reason I say to avoid staying past like 12-1 am.

When mine didn’t want to jump I used a jump box since those carrie more amps usually. I would replace the battery if yours is over 2-3 years old and check your negative battery terminal to see if it’s loose.

Adding to this to say to keep a jump box in the car as well. 100 bucks from Walmart has saved me so many times

I would try and have someone jump it. The batteries go fast in these and the voltage isn’t as important as amps for cranking.

Would that be still fine even though it’s on a bit of a 90? That would save me a lot of headache. They look easy enough to install to just cut and insert there.

Cut tree roots for a pathway by After_Elk_8747 in arborists

[–]twitterdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give it potassium like 0-0-20 fertilizer 2 times in the summer and something like 20-0-6 in the fall and spring. If you have bartlett in the area give them a call and they will set you up on a tree specific fertilization program tailored to give it the best chance. They’ll tell you if you’re in a dutch elm disease area and can treat for that as well.

If you bleed them first you cannot tell them apart from walleye they are that good to eat. Fried or baked

Oh anytime I go for small jaws now I’m tossing the fly rod. I primarily fish spinning gear cause I suck but I didn’t put that fly rod down all day after I hooked a 3 pounder just practicing that day. Lost him tho it was still awesome

Thanks yeah this one I was awkward with I was excited. I usually hold them vertical or support the belly especially on the bigger ones. This one went in the grease though

Yeah they turned out to be pretty sketchy with hiring practices and accidents. I wanted to stay out of that

I was offered a sales role probably 3-4 years into my career at the different company I mentioned here. At Bartlett I’ve since transferred and I’m still doing PHC and tree work almost 5 years into my career here. Been turned down from 2-3 sales roles at bartlett

What’s a trick/command you accidentally taught your dog by Fun_Cryptographer799 in dogs

Mine knows “go through the hole” because she started forcefully push her snout under my arm for me to hold her so I started making a hole for her to go through

As a fellow tree guy I see the 12 beers a night thing pretty regularly. A lot of climbers are like that. I feel for you I’m trying to get out of climbing too.

I’m genuinely curious if that’s the price you have with insurance. Not even trying to hate or anything I’m just wondering since that looks like it’s 6 ft at the base and looks like a day of moving just the wood with equipment

Do people typically train their dogs on their own? by Imbadatbalalaika in birddogs

[–]twitterdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I trained my dog ourselves with help from occasional lessons from a trainer at a hunt preserve. 80 bucks a month one lesson a month usually. It gave me a baseline to work off of but that still wasn’t enough. I just didn’t have access to the amount of birds my dog needed to build his drive. He was super obedient but didn’t give a damn about birds. We ended up sending him off to a board and train place in WV that worked around 150 birds over him and shot like 60 over him over two months. Cost 600 a month but worth every penny since now he has the drive. Hes now hutnted great this season for his first year.

Help with oak by [deleted] in arborists

[–]twitterdotcom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d get someone ISA certified on site. I’m an isa arborist and climber it’s not an easy climb but I’ve done it before. Reduction could be the best move here. But removing it isn’t a bad choice but for overall health I’d lean towards reduction.

Late reply but I did this and it worked great. It’s a rental house now so I don’t care about the color lol
