West Branch
5 year old buck +
I decided to get a thread started on on the land improvements and general hunting and other stuff for our chunk of ground. The first picture is an overview of the area. The 40 sticking off to the west is owned by my wife and I and the rest of the land within the red is owned by my brother. 600 total acres. Majority of the land to the north is public land with access blocked off by us and other neighbors so low pressure.
Here is the 40 to the west where I am doing most of my work. We started planting the dark green lines in spruce screens last spring. The south side of the property is a gravel pit. The "Old" red pin is the only stand on the 40 which I am taking down this spring. Every time walking to it this past year I bumped deer, the opening there is getting planted in spruce this spring for a bedding area.
Cabin: east center along the road
Yellow: 1 acre food plot - going to try corn this spring
Dark green: Spruce screens
Light green: Kill plots that we plan on starting to clear
Red pins: new stands or blinds that will go up on kill plots
