Truly interesting so I guess what I take from this if I'm managing for Whitetail would be to have sectional 1 and 3 year fire and switching the sections every 3 years
On the every 3 year plots, would growing season burns(June-August) every 3 years reduce the hardwood composition? What would you expect it to look like with the different timing of the 3 year interval?@ufdeerlab

A diversity of habitat is definitely beneficial when it comes to your management plan!

The fires have been focused on March for the entire length of the experiment.
