[QUOTE="BDS05, post: 4833922, member: 9093"] I will be contacting Christy Gearhiser in the next couple weeks to certainly set something up. I will of course do more research off TnDeer before pulling the trigger on anything but: Killing trees - Basal spraying (?); is there a certain time and/or condition for this? If I wanted immediate results for visibility, could I cut the tree above treated area? HackNSquirt - What conditions have you found to be best for this method? If I wanted immediate results for visibility, could I cut the tree above treated area? I'm not immediately killing off 100 acres but instead I'll start off focusing on three hillsides within. These will be my primary focus and killing will be my first step in all of this. Long term, I'll kill throughout the property as time allows. The trees I'm focused on are mainly the size of your wrist right now. I'M WANTING THIS WORK TO BEGIN MID JAN. That's why I'm concerned about conditions for killing. Fruits and nuts / Trees and shrubs - Are there any trees you wish you would've planted some odd years ago whether it be monetary for generations, sentimental or beneficial to wildlife? I'm not talking about an orchard.. maybe a few here and a few there... My initial thoughts were muscadine, blackberry, pear, apple, some form of oak(s) other than red and white, persimmon and maybe honeysuckle. The shrubs are a great idea that's not often mentioned (exactly what I'm looking for) that I haven't dug into but bring about another question... Pollinators - Has anyone done anything specifically for this? Thoughts? After all, my intentions are to benefit all wildlife but the primary focus is deer. Cattle hay / Food plot - Surely there's someone here who can recommend an idea that would benefit both parties... I will consult with the gentleman cutting our hay but am wanting suggestions.
