Great information. Thank you. My wife and I recently purchased a piece of property near our family farm in South Georgia. I have been researching and developing a habitat plan for quite some time. This is the first time I recall hearing of "woody browse". I added this to the list. The forestry department will visit the property and assist with a management plan for no extra cost other than what is paid in property tax. I plan on utilizing this service as well. Thanks again.
Awesome! Your forester should be able to give you some good guidance but don't be afraid to hire a consultant. What out for those sweetgums in Georgia too.
Sorry I didn't see this until now! Thanks for watching and commenting, and keep up the good work! Just try to make your videos a little bit better each time and you'll have tons of subs in no time!
Why should i subscribe at the beginning of your video?… i don’t know if i like it yet. U shld ask people to subscribe at the end when folks can make a decision base on your content, right?
No, box elder is native and would be great to have. When I looked up boxwoods I found ornamental shrubs... Unless the names are used interchangably in your area.
I have a place where I hunt that had rows of maple trees planted maybe 25-30 years ago. It’s pretty much a see through woods, especially when the leaves come off. Most of the trees are 3-9” in diameter. I don’t k ow what kind of maple they are, but, would this be a good candidate for hinge cutting?
Red and striped maples are okay for hinge cutting. Actually all maples are “okay” for hinge cutting but those two have some browse value. I would hinge cut some that are near trails or your stands depending on the diameter, but probably stump treat most of them.
I would probably flush cut both aspens and poplars, because they both offer okay browse. You can hinge aspens, but I would only do that if I need to block the view or steer deer to or away from something.
U named 4 trees that deer like regarding woody browse and said u couldn’t think of any more off the top of ur head???… u shld b better prepared to talk about the main subject of ur youtube presentation i.e. “woody browse” thus making future videos more credible.

Depends on what deer feed you are offering
Thats why I plant so many shrubs. They are good all year in the upper Midwest. Good video.
Most hunting properties are missing a good shrub component. If there are shrubs, they’re usually non native invasives.
I guess I could Google it, but what type of shrubs should I plant .
@@philx2897 Where are you located?

The majority of people don't watch until the end...
Great advice. I have lots of boxwood trees, do they like them. Thank you.
Boxwoods are not native to the states so I would get rid of all the boxwoods I found. If we're talking about the same plants.

@@InformedOutdoors I was hoping to create some horizontal cover.
You definitely could with maples.
do you cut aspen/poplar at waist or ground level? I have a great opportunity for a harvest or creating stem count. Thanks,
