Great video! Really informative content. Thank you for sharing. What topographic software or website do you use? I haven’t been able to find one with the same resolution you used in this video.
The orange dotted line......walking through timber all natural or are you cleaning up the trail a little with your forestry mulcher buddy ???? Thanks for the video ....getting a cut this winter.
Since the goal is hunting mature bucks, we're not worried about spooking them in the food plot because they won't be there in daylight feeding during the rut phases in high hunting pressured areas. They'll be scent checking for does along the river bottom. And since it's a red "rut" stand, they're not hunting those until the pre-rut starts in late Oct.
Great video, I trap a little and it is interesting to see you use hinge cuts like a trapper uses brush, grass, and dirt to guide an animal to the trap or snare.
Great video Randy. Thanks for sharing your thought process on designing this property. It seems that thermals could present challenges during light winds. Did you provide recommendations to mitigate light wind conditions?
I just found your channel. It is quickly becoming my favorite.
Good video. Lots of work, but also lots of opportunity.
It's barely considered work when you love what you do.
@@SeeMoreBucks Totally agree.
I really appreciate the amount of detail that went into this video!
Thanks Mike!
How much does management advice like this cost ?
Another quality video Randy! The landowner is lucky to have your knowledge helping him on his property!
Thanks Colin
Thumbs up Randy, thats a nice property thats only gonna get better!!

OnXmaps. But I use a variety of mapping software depending on how up to date they are for that area.
I love these longer videos. Looking forward to watching it this evening.
Great content, always looking for more ideas and information.

No mulcher for walking access trails...just clearing off sticks
Are you ever worried that some of the river stand sites you would hunt with the S wind would push your scent right into the 4 acre plot?

Great video Randy, excellent details! What software are you using in this video, and is this your favorite software out right now? Thanks

Man I have a million questions lol
Don't think we have anyone in Ontario doing this kind of set up
Nice video and information. Wish I could find someone with your expertise to help us with our 180 acres in the finger lake area of New York
Thanks...I was in the Finger Lakes area 3 times in 2021 and probably will be again in 2022.
Great video and the plan looks solid. Can always learn from other habitat managers and the tactics they use.
Have you ever done work in Maine/ New England area? I manage a 80 acre and a 240acre hunting property. I need some tips.

what is the cost to have a forester come in ?
The forester in MI I recommend is part of the logging company so that cost comes out of the timber value you'll receive.
Thanks for discussing rut stand placement vs non rut, almost nobody talks about it and it hard to understand if your new to habitat improvements 👍
