Foggy's Deertopia Proving Grounds - Happenings

It looks like the new pond is right in the middle of your trail system or am I looking at it incorrectly?

That's my thought/question as well. Will we get a bridge build next? Could double as a fishing pier. ;)

You're seeing correctly. The pond is in the middle of that trail......but I do have a trail you do not see that loops around this pond. I plan to plant this trail in switch.....and just use one side for a small travel lane. About the only thing it will lead to is my blind. I am abandoning several other trails and planting them to switchgrass. Thus, you can always drive thru the switch if you need the access the trail(s) provide.

Great looking job, Foggy. Switch next spring??

You need 80% sun to grow a decent stand of switch from my experience. Stuff that fights for sunlight and competes with tree roots for nutrients rarely gets taller than 3' and is very slow to establish.
