[QUOTE="Hridge, post: 5289582, member: 21357"] I’m against clear cut as well. It totally destroys the property. I have a property beside mine in Humphrey county that was clear cut 7 years ago and basically forgotten. I don’t even think a mouse would walk through it. I have no clue how anyone would even be able to look at the property accept by helicopter and its over 600 acres. Really the only time a buck will bed in clear cut is during rut with a doe from what I have read. If you soils are bad, you will get some good forage but you will also get tons of bad stuff. If you start slow and cut less the first time, you can always come back and cut more. If you wipe it clean and hate it, you screwed for your lifetime. A good forester approved by the TWRA is crucial. They can get you a list of good guys. I’ve done lots of forestry stuff at my farm (hack and squirt/controlled burns). I’m definitely not the authority either. Do what is best for you and don’t look back. Fun stuff to think about. [/QUOTE]
