5 year old buck +
Hi all, I need some advice about my bedding area. I have 49 acres. See the map below. The area in the yellow rectangle is 5 acres loaded with deer. Based on trail camera data, probably 12-14 deer bed here, some are decent bucks. But I'm worried about these cedars become too tall and creating canopy over time. I want to keep it suitable for bedding. Should I randomly thin out the largest cedars , or should I take our groups and create larger pockets of openings? Hope the question makes sense. The trees at the bottom of the rectangle are clearly not cedars, but are all redbuds. Thanks for any advice. As you can see I have similar less-used bedding on the left side of the photo that I can cultivate too.
