Some of the apple trees are loaded this year.  Pictured is a regular crab apple and flowering crab apple trees.
To prevent branches from breaking, I shook the tree (got bonked a bunch of times) and now realize I cannot hunt
the area for 10 days.

I don't think swinging from a crab apple tree branch constitutes manipulation of agricultural crops.

Were you planning on removing all those li'l apples before you hunt again in 10 days?

Just checkin'

I think the baiting guidelines are different from if they fell of a tree to if they were trucked in and dumped there. These apples grew in that location and would naturally if not picked end up in that location..

Exactly. There is absolutely no reason you can't hunt there.

For what it's worth, I agree. That's a natural windfall; not deliberate baiting.

Mine's loaded too, branches sagging way down. Mr Cardinal likes it, though...

Wise man, that beeker!

I taught him everything I know and he still doesn't know anything.
