| All the food plots have been replanted for this year. The switchgrass has also been planted and will take two years to establish. thanks for paying for the seed. My farmer is planting soybeans now and plans to put in wheat this fall. Should be good goose hunting next fall. So pray for good rains on 116. |

Dan,
A pleasure paying for part of the seed. Thank you for planting and being so active in the club. I will pray for good rains this year for 116 and all of Michigan.
Thanks again,

| Everything is growing and looking good. The South and West of unit D is one gaint food plot because of different food plots over the years. If I get some seed I believe I will plant some alfalfa on the south side of unit E next. On trips to the woods I am seeing a lot of does with fawns in the fallow areas. I have been working with some gov. people on the pond issue. They have approved a wildlife pond to be built on the South West corner of Unit C. Funding should be in place next year for construction then. Approx 1 acre in size, shallow duck etc pond. Poor fruit tree production this year. There may not be many apples in the woods this year. The apple trees in South West corner of unit E need pruning etc badly. I will cut if you guys can pile the brush. |

Dan when are you planning on pruning the trees? Maybe we can make a work day to do this and get a few members out there to help. I am free most weekends and would be willing to come out and help, this would give me another reason to be on the property and see the changes that have been made.

| There is a pie shaped slice of woods in unit D. Its the part on the east side of the creek. We pushed an access into this running north and south. This plus the tree harvesting is opening this area up. We will see much more growth on the ground now. This will produce much more cover and food for the wild life. The turkeys love woods that are more open as well. Found a nice rub at the south end. This is a good time to release the apple trees in unit E. Can we fit it in? There are also apple trees in the south east corner of Unit D if we can fit it in. Good luck hunters! I know I am looking forward to my U.P. trip this Nov.. I mostly just take video. |

Dan,
Sorry for the long wait, I can't get free to get up that way any time soon. Been busy working on my side of town and hunting. Maybe in December for the late pheasant season, my boys and I can come out and help if it isn't done.
