[QUOTE="Smo, post: 5803196, member: 12078"] The next high wind you will probably lose those too… If the ground is saturated, they will blow over easily. Mine did. Your property will change again after the first 3 years of new growth, think it’s thick now just wait! My place was select cut in 2011, this is what it looks like now. [ATTACH type="full"]209273[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]209274[/ATTACH] It’s actually starting too “open up” in some areas, I guess the understory is starting too shade out. Great info above about maintaining the logging roads , it’s easier than cutting new ones in most cases.. Loading areas are another great tip, here’s a couple of mine after a few years.. [ATTACH type="full"]209275[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]209276[/ATTACH] After the first 3 years I had too relocate some stands due too the thickets getting taller. Still at different times of the year some lack great visibility.. Here’s a couple different views from the ladder stand just too the left of the cedar in the pic above.. [ATTACH type="full"]209277[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]209278[/ATTACH] The deer will follow the path of least resistance as mentioned above if un pressured… [ATTACH type="full"]209279[/ATTACH] 25 yards East of the mud hole in the pics above. That’s another thing, my place didn’t have any water during the dryer months of the year. The mud hole above is about two tractor buckets wide & 25-30’ long.. It holds water year around and draws lots of attention.. I hope this helps some.. [/QUOTE]
