its actually a bunch of pin oaks, etc. surprisingly has never been managed for timber, the owner just likes to cut down for the heck of it.




He probably sees that pine isn't worth shite so why bother.

Not every February. Maybe every 3-5 years. You could cut one area one year, another area the next year and a third area the third year and then go back to the first area the 4th year.

Good info. Might give this a shot

Stripping brings in a lot more browse for the deer to eat. The 4-5yo cutover gives them plenty of protection as a place to sleep. If you're not pressuring them much, and have plenty to eat, it's prime to attract and keep deer on the property and see more stay throughout the year.
