All,
Been in discussion with the landowner & we're looking to do some revamping of the property this year. Its 90 acres, about 3/4 was cut 4yrs ago.I would say a dozen or so mature trees left, mostly oaks. There was talk of replanting with longleaf pine, but that hasnt happened yet. Our stand locations were good for the 1st couple of years but now that the regrowth is getting thick, its to a point where we have to go to work.
The property has deer,bear,a few turkeys & other small game. We're wanting to start on improvements with deer being the main focus, but also food & shelter for everything else. We did 2 small "no till" plots this year, they turned out "ok".
We're going to be working late winter early spring on firelanes & plots, LO is renting a skidsteer with forestry mower.
Any advice/comments appreciated.
we have permission to hunt the SE property where the red line runs, but not to do any habitat work.
