Slovakia...world leader #1 exporter of potassiumIt's extremely common in the mountainous regions of Slovakia.
Not too much stuff grows there and potatoes were usually used as food (historically), so people turned to fruit trees - mostly plums and then pears. The nice plums and pears got eaten and the not so nice ones were the subject of arguments between husbands and wives.
Wives wanted to make jams out of those and husbands wanted to get as much plum brandy as possible.
Recently it's not as popular, but still, local distilleries are in pretty much any village.
My grandparents and my father still make a gallon or two of plum brandy (Slivovitz - it's actually so good that it made it into english dictioinary! Slivka is plum in Slovak) every year.
If you are into experiments, I really suggest you check out various fruits. The funniest one we've had was pear brandy that tasted nothing like pears and 100% like bananas.
Lots of apples. Grapes, Peaches, pears. Lots of local wineries with orchards and vineyards to support them. Probably nothing like down south though. Damn winter fucks everything up lol
Helps that theirs less need for pesticides due to longer winters taking out more of the little bastards.Winter renews the soil and growth process for next season.
Things grow better up north
The tick population is supposed to be as low as it can be due to the extreme cold, fwiw.... not sure about other bugs and all thatHelps that theirs less need for pesticides due to longer winters taking out more of the little bastards.
More fertile soil due to the abundance of rain and the dethawing process. Harsh winters are a natural rejuvinator. Down south theyd be SOL without man made irrigation systemsHelps that theirs less need for pesticides due to longer winters taking out more of the little bastards.
Depends on where your at but I agree with you for the most part That fertile soil tends to wash into a certain muddy river that tends to flood certain land where I may or may not live So in conclusion everyone is rightMore fertile soil due to the abundance of rain and the dethawing process.

I get you. And i know what your talking about. But they dont have that down here in Texas. Nothing but 100°+ days and no natural irrigation systems. Your area has different dynamicsDepends on where your at but I agree with you for the most part That fertile soil tends to wash into a certain muddy river that tends to flood certain land where I may or may not live So in conclusion everyone is right
I'm thinking about heading that way this coming fall to visit some family and do some hunting should be fun.I get you. And i know what your talking about. But they dont have that down here in Texas. Nothing but 100°+ days and no natural irrigation systems. Your area has different dynamics
The "hunters" down here hunt on contracted land. Pay the bill and get chauffered around and told where the deere are. Most the land is contracted down here. Their not REAL huntersI'm thinking about heading that way this coming fall to visit some family and do some hunting should be fun.
Jesus. Sounds like a boring ego trip.The "hunters" down here hunt on contracted land. Pay the bill and get chauffered around and told where the deere are. Most the land is contracted down here. Their not REAL hunters
Nah they own some land, no fences. I don't believe I'd ever pay for a guided hunt. My state has an unbelievable amount of wma land I honestly forget hunters in other states aren't quite so lucky.The "hunters" down here hunt on contracted land. Pay the bill and get chauffered around and told where the deere are. Most the land is contracted down here. Their not REAL hunters
Texas has no state tax therefore no state land. So whats left is privately owned, corporately owned or for sale. Which doesnt leave much room to hunt unless its your land or you have permission or pay to hunt on your neighbors larger plot. Big oil money down here. And land is a stock that is finite in quantity.Jesus. Sounds like a boring ego trip.
In glorious Slovakia if you do that you better be ready to be made fun of for decades to come.
^^spot on^^ I'm in on a deer lease in my state with my uncles, not because of lack of free places to hunt but because the excess of rednecks hunters on public land. My county has too many rivers and is too close to a lake ( water breeds rednecks). So I hunt one county over where people are much calmer and milder mannered. I stopped duck hunting because I was afraid I'd go to jail people burning other guys blinds, fights at the boat ramp every weekend I've seen grown ass men fighting each other with boat paddlesTexas has no state tax therefore no state land.

Up north like New York and many other states. The state owns a large portion of the land and hunters are free to use it without tax or fees as long as you adhere to the rules and regulations. That is where the majority of hunting is done. Then of course you got private lands that can be hunted with permission. I can honestly say guided hunting isnt a popular method up there due to the generous state offerings.

Lol, i dont get it. Have your straps undone, plug in the boat, gear aboard the boat and everything ready to go. That way you just back it in undo the safety hook and your docked. Easy takes 5 minutes tops. Less with 2 ppl. Its a simple courtesy. Instead of doing all the shit in the water when it was supposed to be done before hand. Gotta keep the line moving.^^spot on^^ I'm in on a deer lease in my state with my uncles, not because of lack of free places to hunt but because the excess of rednecks hunters on public land.

There are some real hunters but majority are how you described. Hunting is Big business in Texas.The "hunters" down here hunt on contracted land. Pay the bill and get chauffered around and told where the deere are. Most the land is contracted down here. Their not REAL hunters
