Why not just rent a small dozer. Just had about 7,500 LF of firelanes put in at my place last summer for around $2,200 and that was with someone else getting beat up and stung by Yellowjackets. The stuff he cleared was both larger and thicker than that.

Add some climbing peas to that mix next time. Its even better.I planted 2 ac last year of Sunn Hemp, WGS, Buckwheat and Red Ripper Peas. The BW came on strong first but was then overtaken by the Hemp/Peas which grew to about 8 feet tall.The Sorhgum fizzled because I planted the Hemp to dense.

That black phase yote came from SE Alabama. Had him and two normal colored ones on camera all summer. Shoulda had one of them too but I am a novice and screwed up the set.

My first victim.

My buddy shot one of the mature bucks we have had on camera all year Friday afternoon, but unfortunately only wounded it. It was a very old really big bodied 6 point. Got to thinking about where it was shot and it made me think he may have had us hunters figured out a lot better than we had him...

They are going to replant 100% Loblolly monoculture. No doubt the hunting will get real good in about 3 years and it will be absolutely prime bedding for another 10 or so after that.My plan is to start beefing up on the food part of the equation so in a few years I can lure them out of the...

In keeping with all the timber harvest posts I decided to throw my situation out in the fray and see what some of you more experienced hunters suggest for the next few years.My west neighbor is mostly through clear cutting their entire 250 acres of beautiful mature native pine/hardwood forest...

I have about as much desire to reconcile and meet the Libtards in the middle as they did when Obozo got elected twice. Remember the vote on Obamacrap? I hope they get burned to the ground and set back at least 20-30 years in their quest to destroy this country.It was Obozo who said "You lost...

Man I wish I hunted in an area where mature bucks just wander around in the daylight. Pretty much does not happen in SE Alabama, especially on my place, even with very limited pressure.Also would be nice to hunt a place where I could actually pass on a deer like that last video because it was...

Well I have never even got close to a 300 lb buck in the SE Bama pineywoods but a youth hunter popped a 146.7 lb doe on my place Saturday. b

Not super old but I hunt with my fathers Remington 700 30-06 my Mom gave to him for Christmas in 1975, two years before he passed.

Just got back from a week at the farm and took a pic of my 3.5 year old AU Chestnuts. They were very slow to get started but are growing much better this year.They are all out of the tubes and looking pretty good. My main problem is the darn birds keep landing on my leaders and breaking t hem off.

Man I feel your pain D Hunter. My plots in SE Bama are struggling. Were planted about 3 weeks ago and got some rain the day they were planted and some the next day. Nothing else to this point and no real forecast for weeks.Luckily I have some plots in low areas and some with shade. What a...

I did my first last summer. Fenced 3 AC with all Gallagher stuff for a little over $1,000.

Man you have deer like I do.He will be a good one next year.
