[QUOTE="DoubleRidge, post: 5688643, member: 20594"] Another practice we've used recently, which created allot of early successional growth (and the deer are hammering it) is where we reclaimed head high old field growth of saplings and briars...some saplings golf ball to wrist size with briars well over head high...but we hired a mulcher to reclaim this 3 acre section and to grind one half rotted stump....but everthing was taken to the ground and shredded....and currently, three weeks later, the new growth is young and tender and the deer are loving it......But (always a but) its not cheap to run a mulcher over a large area like we are talking about.....but it is an option and a very capable habitat management tool. For reference, the operator we hired did the 3 acres mention and ground one stump in under half days work and he was $600....so some will run $150 - $200 per hour....but they can cover some ground.
