[QUOTE="TNlandowner, post: 5272044, member: 3026"] Shooter, The forester should give you a list of trees to target with TSI. The Forester should also be willing to give you some info on herbicides and other safety considerations. Be prepared to work as TSI with hack and squirt or hinge cutting are demanding tasks. Are you having 2 acre sections logged or simply TSI work? I imagine you are talking TSI since 2 acres is very small for logging. How mature is the forest? Did the Forester recommend a selective cut or simply TSI removing undesirable species? For wildlife purposes, getting sunlight to the ground in order to create food and cover should be a priority. For timber management, getting rid of low value trees is important. Both efforts must ensure that you don't cause damage to the forest. Take for example, a logger comes in and cuts the low value, mixed hardwood trees. This could be great for the forest. However, if they fall trees into valuable trees or damage them dragging logs, then you've done more harm than good in the long term. [/QUOTE]
