Feel lucky to have Mbrock and CNC showing up in this thread!

MBrock and others - Any resources you recommend on this method? I plan on getting Dr. Harper's book when it goes back in print but like to utilize multiple resources. I'm thinking that I'd prefer early successional habitat managed with fire, selective spraying, and the occasional bush hogging to traditional greenfields. I don't particularly enjoy sitting greenfields, but I love hunting thickets, and it seems like this would be kind of similar.


MBrock - you probably don't remember this but years ago you pointed me towards some hogs in Bankhead... we ended up 2 miles deep and made it out in the dark. Heck of a hunt! Almost killed a few very very deep and were happy we didn't because we would have never gotten them out!

CNC - we utilized throw and mow on our old lease - worked pretty darn well! We lost that lease though which is why I'm exploring new approaches. Our new land has no greenfields... I own it so could get it timbered and use the money to improve the habitat etc. but with timber prices back down, not sure how much I'll even get. Working on coming up with a complete plan.
