[QUOTE="MickThompson, post: 4727384, member: 3172"] First off, what are your goals and objectives? why are you buying land? What do you intend to do with it? On property #1, of the 260 acres of open ground, how much is reclaimed mine ground? How does it lay? steep, rolling, etc. All reclamation isn't equal, but a lot of the stuff I've seen won't hardly grow a pine tree. Large scale pine plantings are pretty overrated for deer, and unless something changes, the pine markets aren't very good either. Id manage a lot of that reclaimed ground as early successional cover with some scattered small (<5 acres) pine plantings for thermal bedding cover. 2 things I like about property 2, you can always clear new ground if need be, and it sounds like you wouldn't have to plant anything to have good cover.
