I’ve never done a formal land tour, but here are some pics. I bought 300 acres between 2017-2019, and am in my second year of fully managing all the land. It is in central Alabama, at the north end of the black belt. It is very hilly for Alabama in this region, the very foothills of the Appalachian mountains.
Here are several of my fields. I have about 15 acres total in dedicated food plots.
I experimented with drilling into standing summer crops vs cutting first then drilling. I’m amazed how fast a lot of the thatch disappeared from the fields I cut. The deer are in all of them, but really seem to like the standing cover of the ones I did not cut.
I have three ponds, the bottom one is awaiting the rains to refill it after I had it redone.
I have approximately 5 miles of roads on the property I’ve planted green to keep as fire lanes and to prevent washing.
