I rent that exact machine every winter for a month for doing invasive removals in our parks, cost just under 12k for the month but worth every penny. Mulched 125 acres this winter with it during that time of heavy autumn olive and honeysuckle growth, those machines are amazing
Great information and this is exactly what most of us are doing. Many properties don't have 10 acres of old pasture or easily tillable land. We are carving out irregular shaped plots in the woods. Thanks for posting!
So Randy I’ve been told not to pile the debris along the sides of a corridor but to leave it open as much as possible so the deer don’t feel trapped ... can’t tell, did you guys more or less do that? Nice work.
Steve, Most are poplar so they don't stump sprout and since all the stumps are now at ground level, even maple will not sprout as easily. But even if a few did it's no big deal
Root sprouts coming up in the woods where there's no disturbance is different from a food plot that once in a while is getting sprayed, mowed, harrowed and run over with an ATV
thats a lot of money, 12K... for 360 lbs of deer (assuming 3 deer @ 120 pounds each._ To me it would make sense for everyone to raise deer like a beef 'farm'.

That is a great looking project and plan!! Those huge white pines are a perfect stand tree!!
It’s 12am and idk but this is therapeutic for me to watch lol great job.
This is the absolute BEST video to date!!!
Very nice. I love those mulchers they make food plotting even more enjoyable.
I almost bought that 30ac on the North side of woods Ln, glad to see the potential of it! I need to hire Eric for the property I did buy in Clare Co
Excellent video and explanation. Well done Randy
Thanks Brad
I enjoy watching your videos, thank you. I like this combination you have going seems to work very well! Nice work and merry Christmas! Kapper

Great video Randy -Gabe
Yep that's an amazing piece of equipment nice information thanks
Wow , what a great tool to have .
How much is it to rent for a day 8Hrs?
The the seed have a issue if plant on top of the wood chips? My area was thick and has a ton of wood chips on it.
Great video. Would love to know how it worked out....follow up video
Wowzers just amazing work.
Would love to see what this place looks like now
Won’t the roots rob the plot of nutrients if so narrow?
Great job!!
Interesting design Randy. How close to the road is that food plot? Did you use a Screen for better deer and driving security from the road?
The closest point was about 50 yards from the road. We dropped several trees between the road and the food to open the canopy for thicker regen
Thats Some Expensive Deer!
What a machine wow
What app were you using that shows satelite view, over layed with topo, & property lines?
OnX does that.
how do I get ahold of these guys I have a ten acre parcel that I need addressed
randy@seemorebucks.com
Where can I rent one of these?
i noticed there are not alot of rocks in this area?
Hey Randy ! What about Texas ? 🤪🤪
How do you keep the stumps from sprouting back up?
Steve, Most are poplar so they don't stump sprout and since all the stumps are now at ground level, even maple will not sprout as easily. But even if a few did it's no big deal
@@SeeMoreBucks i was thinking that too, but the poplars send up those root sprouts typically. ?

@@SeeMoreBucks hopefully he gets both be great browse too. was just curious on that with that mulcher if it had much residual effect.
Nice machine but you could never use it where I live as it's all rock..

Tell a bass fisherman to sell his $90,000 boat and build a pond 🤣
I couldn't begin to do this in my forest with rocks all over the place.
Nice mess
All this to get 50 pounds of barely edible meat? Imagine if you put this much energy and money into raising meat animals?
