I currently have a logger working on a 12 acre project for me. He is taking everything out except the white oak and red oak that I went through and marked. Goals are 3 fold. To create shooting lanes through the property to improve hunting, clean out a couple of 2 acre food plots that I left some trees in that are robbing the plots of water and sunlight, and increase bedding area and natural browse.
My question is concerning the small trees that are left after the logging project that are undesirable. Do you recommend I just cut them, or cut them and follow up with a herbicide treatment on the stumps? If the answer is herbicide treatment, do I only cut and not treat the ones close to desirable trees to prevent risk of killing desirables? I have some Arsenal left over from a few years ago, but would also love to hear recommendations on herbicide if that is the right answer here.
Thanks,
Jarred
