The acorn crop can vary from year to year, and it's important to select fruit trees that ripen later in the season for hunting purposes. Grafting a female limb onto a male persimmon tree can result in a female persimmon tree. Deer are highly adaptable and can thrive in various landscapes and conditions. Proactive management decisions, such as limiting doe harvest, can have a positive impact on deer populations. Flooded areas can be repopulated by deer as the water recedes and new vegetation grows. Fall plots with diverse plant species can provide attractant throughout the season. The Mission Whitetail TV show will feature hunting adventures in various states and countries. The hosts express their appreciation for the support and friendship of their listeners and guests.
