Thanks Tom. I appreciate the information. I am really looking forward to this project. I firmly believe us as hunters and outdoorsmen should do everything possible to help with things of this nature.

Great thread Night Stalker. I've been following the AC saga for 10 years or so and was thrilled to read about the back crossing that produced a 15/16 tree. Amazing science. Once they are available we are going to get some to plant on our archery clubs property to help the species.

John, I'm fortunate to live just a few miles from the University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry which has a good chestnut project going, they also have a field day each year and I got a lot of good information from them when I attended last year.
