[QUOTE="Mike Belt, post: 4495994, member: 69"] Used to be where I deer hunted in Ms that once they went in and clear cut the timber the land sold for $100/acre. Not anymore, lol. I should have snapped up a bunch then. Hindsight can give you nightmares. Where I hunt now there are 100s of acres that have been clear cut and have grown up. Some were planted back in pine and some weren't but they're all standing 5-8 feet in weeds, saplings, etc. Walking through them is out of the question but they're laced with deer trails. We're not allowed to do any kind of work in them. If I were able to I'd put a dozer in there to make a few access trails through them and have 2 or 3 1/2 acre areas opened up for food plots. Think direction before doing so. Entering or leaving. Which way are the deer most likely to travel in relation to surrounding terrain, which ways can you go in without being detected, and most likely wind directions during deer hunting season for your area. I've always wanted to create a hub with food plot spokes in areas like this. [/QUOTE]
