[QUOTE="casjoker, post: 5289320, member: 17057"] Not sure how viable it is down here with how fast "choppings" seem to grow in. Up north we clear cut strips 40-50 yards wide and then selective cut the 40-50 yards in between. Sounds like you have limited options if you won't be able to cut it again. If you want maximum return on what you cut you will take almost everything 12" and over. Leaving the 50-yard buffer by the fields sounds like a very good idea. You will also want to develop a plan to manage what was cut. If not it will get so thick in 3-5 years it will be unusable. I hunted was on a mismanaged property for a number of years. It took 15 years before we could even walk through some areas after it was cut. [/QUOTE]
