If you do, I am your friend. Big honeysuckle thickets are the
ticket, right now.

We have lots of it. We manage for it (to promote it).

The new place I just picked up to hunt,the over grown field is covered in it,but there are very few leaves on it,the deer have picked it clean.

Get sunlight to the ground where it exists. It can also help to fertilize (nitrogen) and lime exisiting stands.
And of course, keeping your deer density in line is essential. Deer will browse away honeysuckle in winter if the population density is too high. That's why honeysuckle is such a good "indicator" plant. If deer browse down the honeysuckle in winter (during an acornless year) you have too many deer for the available food sources. Create more food and have less deer.
