[QUOTE="KirkB, post: 5519020, member: 23450"] Sounds like if you’ve got mature timber, you should harvest it. The first growth replacement provided excellent cover. If it’s mostly acorn productive oaks, you may not want to do it. I cut the timber off of my 200 acres about 15 years ago, and in that area we have either killed or seen on camera 10 definite shooters in the property. 1 was a 15 point double drop time deer. Have never seen a deer like that anywhere near my property, much less on it! Our food plots were simple. A mixture of winter wheat and turnips, My dad and I killed the two biggest 9 pointers, we’ve ever seen in TN in person this year. The food plots and selective timber harvesting are key, I think.
