- Increase Your Farms Carrying Capacity With Hinge Cutting // Lee and Tiffany Lakosky
This week, Lee demonstrates the benefits of hinge cutting and how it can increase the carrying capacity for whitetails on your farm. He talks about the different tree species to select when hinge cutting, and also how to address larger undesirable trees by using a technique known as girdling. Lee also explains how to properly mix the correct chemicals to apply when implementing the girdling method.

Great episode! Great information
Love that denim shirt. Kids would pay a lot of money for that lived in look. Thanks for the content
Omg! We got that from an old rancher in MT like 15 years ago!!! It’s his fav!
Awsome can't wait to see more videos like this
Love these videos Lee. Very informative
I rarely hinge trees, Im dropping and killing them mostly, when I do I hinge them at no more than knee height. Keeps the tree usable to deer longer. Shoots off the hinged trees can grow 6+ feet a year, quickly degrading the positive effects of the initial cutting. Better off to cut them clean and safely, and allow sunlight to encourage native plant response in the understory.
I usually just hollow out the front then Crack them over the trees heal and grow well. As far as these guys cutting trees they don't call them experts they don't know what they are even doing.
No control over the trees at all.
Fantastic job, Lee. Great episode!
I like what you are doing...from a safety perspective, please keep your saw below neck level. One snapped chain and you are history.
Thank u!!! I need all those guys safe especially Lee!!
These are awesome video's, thank you for explaining in such detail.
Great choice on the garlon 3a especially on locust
Loving the you tube videos. Keep ‘em coming.
Excellent series, learning alot from it.
Great work. Thanks for the tips on cutting
Thank u!
Learning so much from these. Things I’ve never even thought about before. Browse is so important.
Thank u!
Great respect for you and what you do! Keep it up!!
Thank u!
Loving this series
Thank u Tim!
Those hickory trees are great firewood
Awesome video Lee. Good to see you have the safety gear on. I've seen a bunch of videos from the hunting industry that are missing the chaps and helmet.
I agree!!!
Lee thanks for sharing your strategies. Could you elaborate on how you rotate your food plots and how you decide what to plant where. Thanks!
That’s a good question!!! I will have him touch on that!
Fantastic job, Lee! Hinge cutting is such a misunderstood tool to help enhance habitat. I love to help clients complete this great practice. Yes, it can be dangerous. Leave it to professionals such as ourselves. Great video!
misunderstood and mis (over) used.
I’m curious to hear why would you would cut a Hickory tree ? Does it grow nuts ? Nice video . Craig. Pa
I will have him address this!
I hinge cut approximately 100 trees early spring when it started to get warm before budding. Most trees as soon as the tops touched the ground most broke, i even did it safely w a tractor pushing the trees over leavjg more sap wood and still didnt make a difference. 1-10 trees actually grew any sprouts after this
U guys are maniacs!!!! I love it!!! My favorite/first project!…. TSI!! Let’s see Donny with a chainsaw!!! Great job guys!!
I mean, is that smart! 😂😂
What do you do to handle the scourge of the woods. “BUCKTHORN “
Buckthorn isn't usually a problem in this area more of a honey suckle and multiflora rose problem.
Can foliar treat it with 2% glyphosate just like you would bush honeysuckle or multiflora. Could also basal bark with Garlon 4a & diesel. Foliar is typically easier and faster.
A millionn
Tht squirrel hasn’t never seen no type tornado like tht before.
Why not hinge waist high?
A. It’s safer
B. The shoots from the hinge will be browse height and available now.
Seems to be working pretty well.
Jeff Sturgis says waist level and lower deer are 6ft tall
Jeff sturgis is a snake oil salesman in general.
@@usernamehere6061 lol I agree his practices do work on private land his prices to come to your house though are unreasonable and I feel like he kinda sold out and did a few companies dirty that I really like. Like exodus and John komp of North woods whitetail. And something weird went on in his personal life as he now has a 1 year old and anew wife. When 2 years ago Diane his previous wife was in the videos. Kinda a dirt bag
Personally I’d make those cuts lower, if you get kickback at face level…….
Every tree felling video describes the dangers of barber-chairing a tree. This guy is literally going out and purposefully barber-chairing trees...........
He’s got no idea the destruction those cuts will do to someone.
I get hinge cutting the small ones, bit doing it to the larger ones is extremely dangerous. Eventually they are going to barber chair and if it hits you, there goes your hunting future. There’s a reason loggers don’t just do a back cut, the ones that did died…please take that in to account next time, I enjoy your channel and this puts you in unnecessary danger…
You're laughing at destroying squirrel habitat....
Shut up. He didn’t destroy anything.
And it jumped to another tree. Just relax.
He’s got plenty of trees to go to!!!!
Looks dangerous!!!
It's deadly and they have no control, one tree away from death.
Never drop start your saw.
If it has standard recoil its fine. The EZ recoils are the ones you can't.
