I thought this was an interesting picture. It shows several years of tap holes, most scabbed over. You have to move your drill holes around so that the sapwood under the bark can heal fully.

Do the red circles help make sure you don’t use the same hole twice?

Very thoughtful. I will make sure not to reuse these holes, so that the sapwood under the bark can heal fully.
