Of course the next year or two will be great, but for the first year? Ps 45 acres surrounded by mature pine hardwood mix.

I wouldn't be opposed to it every now and then, you can see really far and all. I wouldn't sit on it every hunt though

Probably would be a decent early season location. Later in the year depending on the pressure I would guess they won't be moving through there.

I'd also like to add that I'd hunt it mostly like a food plot, and only sit on it in the evening

the best year we ever had was when we had fresh cutover. thought it would be better in the 2nd and 3rd year but it wasnt.. they're right about the edges, during the rut u should hunt it every day, mornings and evenings.. when the does are being chased they like open areas like that where they can run

I love a new cutover. First year is best year. Lot of people get pissed when their lease gets cut. I can't tell you how many times we've picked up clear cut land from someone that dropped it and piss slaughtered deer. Good deer.

Make sure you go in after they replant and "quietly" pull up a few trees to create a hunting lane for later.

Went ahead and got the 45 acre lease friday. Went out this afternoon and saw 3 does and 3 yearlings, separately. So not a bad start

Sunday evening. brother killed a 15.5 inside spread 8 point

today he went back and killed a gorgeous 14 inside. really symmetrical and longer tines.

i'd say a new cutover works just fine. PS, they're rutting.
