Building DEER and TURKEY Habitat on a BUDGET!!! (w/Land and Legacy!)

[@bradfox7834]

One request - please do a follow up next year to see what those areas look like 👍🏼

[@lydialangfordjoiner765]

That would be great! We don’t own land but lease. Turkeys don’t like it anymore due to lack of management- I wish we could buy it. Since it’s mostly pines for the Owner’s profit, we are limited on what we can do. Thank you for sharing these ideas!

[@hostie1015]

Thanks so much for this content. If I could make one request. Please keep us updated over the next 4 years with success of turkey poult production and also how deer are using your patchwork design. It would be very interesting if you could do a camera survey and let us in on the survival rate of poults per hen on average . Again, great job guys and can’t wait to see how this improves your farm.

[@josht8239]

I remember Adam from growing deer TV. Great video, I love learning about land management.

[@joshsinglefooter]

I thought his voice was familiar. It dang sure is!

[@stevenlcotney5577]

Good job in creating a mosaic of different aged habitats for Wildlife to thrive. Rx Fire is the healing torch of Habitat and wildlife!

[@danieljarosz5140]

Great stuff. Wish more people would be doing it.

[@jonathanterrell7256]

Can we see a follow up video to all this TSI and burns 2 years after??

[@martytriplett5327]

Would love to see more drone footage as things progress. Thanks for the great content.

[@Makete100]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I needed this information. And that was a lot of information along with part one.

[@kybeau]

Loved this project. Thanks for letting us follow along.

[@kernmw10]

Very informative. I need to do this on my property. Planting food plots isn't enough. Need to implement fire and hinge cutting.

[@eric_bonny_bontrager]

Very informative. Great content guys.

[@runtimmytimer]

Always cut a wedge even on small trees. The wedge allows you to direct the tree. Without that wedge you can have unpredictable results.

[@nicholasnorthrup5384]

I think my woods is gonna be changing up real soon.

[@AldensAntlers]

you can tell these guys love their craft

[@russellwatters5891]

Lots of useful information given in this video, will come in handy for a new property I have! Thank you! Love what you're doing ❤️

[@bmalone0688]

Awesome video. Would love to see some follow ups throughout the year.

[@williamwaychoff8710]

Question: Are you going to utilize the logs and tops for firewood or just leave it to rot?

[@bobbygreen2291]

Great show guys , thanks for sharing

[@brycecowling5516]

Awesome video boys! When are the sturgeon videos coming, can’t wait!

[@underdogoutdoors]

Great project!

[@cantgetenoughoutdoors3258]

My friends are food and cover guys they're doing burbs now too its the time for I've been involved in a few very exciting and proven!!!

[@caseymoore6831]

Do you guys have an update on this property, and how did it work out? This needs to happen on our property.

[@conraywest]

Why would you cut the shag bark hickory thought in general they were good for wildlife 🤔

[@ncbackwoods6859]

Really enjoyed this video, could you do a burn on a old cutover?

[@usernamehere6061]

Absolutely. Always get someone with experience to plan and help you execute it though if you lack experience yourself! Those can be hot fires.

[@goober698]

Can’t wait to see it in a few years

[@JayN4GO]

Great video. By this fall we will see amazing results already. I didn’t hear anyone shout out Mr Grant who has the most information on KZbin. Maybe these guys interned with him and went their own way. Loads of good info here as they covered about everything other than Lyme and fertilizer.

[@jasonhuddleston2169]

What was the name of the herbicide for hack and squirt? I may have missed it

[@dublelung1]

Garlon 3A 50% water 40% Arsenal AC 10% and mixed in the order as listed

[@Drblood6721]

Awesome, awesome series. One question I had was, with all the drop and hinge cut trees, do you just leave them there to decay and get nasty for cover, or are you removing them to open up the ground?

[@Landandlegacytube]

Leaving them there. Main note is the use of fire, the dropped trees will burn up after a few fires.

[@marillahills91]

Very informational thank you

[@lesleyboeder1798]

I think I would be pulling out them trees for firewood.. instead of hack and sqirt..

[@Bhartrampf]

Yeah, me too, and milling some of the bigger ones . always need wood around the place

[@bentpolski]

Question- why use the hatchet herbicide method instead of chain saw?

[@Landandlegacytube]

Chainsaw puts a lot of debris on the ground making it hard for the turkeys to navigate through

[@soaredwood162]

So how did turkey manage to survive before without human intervention? I get the land management aspect of things but I have always wondered how turkeys managed before humans managed forests

[@stevedenoyer5956]

You guys keep water handy for the fires?

[@LoganLopossa]

Another banger

[@briansteele1494]

Is there a reason behind cutting all the hickory tree? Anyone?

[@jamesmarshall5794]

@landandlegacy boysssss Lfg! Love them!

[@samuellester3712]

good stuff fellas

[@carltrano1325]

Or a follow up in June

[@travissmith-wz5nc]

Great video

[@wilmoreridgerunner8385]

Wish I could do this on my leases!

[@lisaannaallen6283]

A little bit of 12-12-12 around your oaks helps a lot..

[@bobbygreen2291]

Warb them guys know what they are talking about,,I’ve seen studies on you tube and they proved that the more light a oak tree gets , the heavier the mast.

[@bengreen4583]

I'm new to the whole land management stuff. Why do deer like having those trees piled up? I know it let's light in to grow forage but is that it?

[@Landandlegacytube]

The tops that fell provide forage immediately because of the buds, the stump sprouts from those cut stumps will provide forage for years to come and cover is provided from that as well as the cut tops. New growth from the sunlight increase will also provide forage and cover. Keep in mind there are lots of species that desire young forest openings like we did here

[@stevedenoyer5956]

Does it matter time of year with hack and squirt?

[@TheHuntingPublic]

Yes it’s not as effective through the spring green up because nutrients are going up and out of the tree in the form of new growth. (That was our understanding at least 🤷‍♂️)

[@stevedenoyer5956]

@@TheHuntingPublic makes sense

[@kylewickersham1509]

Why are they dropping the trees and not hinge cutting?

[@Bhartrampf]

They talked about that in the first video

[@anitafisch7558]

That Warb he's always thinkin' anit he.

[@sauron1211]

10:46 guy tries to start an already running chainsaw

[@Landandlegacytube]

Lol that’s Adam’s chainsaw running directly beside the camera.

[@claytondonovan3278]

You guys do now that hickory trees produce nuts love the videos keep up the consistency

[@Landandlegacytube]

Yes nuts that aren’t utilized by deer and turkeys and we cut less than 2% present in the farm.

[@showmetheheartland]

Nothing eats hickory nuts except squirrels - and bears if you have any around.

[@zacharykam5161]

How is it now?

[@martinsuper4545]

I have really gotten away from this type of work, and even foodplots. I have really moved my "deer work" into maintaining, restoring, and planting apple trees. In a short time this have proven huge dividends. I feel like there are lots of these videos, lots of food plot videos, and even lots of apple videos, but I really haven't seen someone clearing a small area in the woods and planting a mini orchard for deer.

[@jrod4717]

Not to be pushy but.... Where's that coyote hunt with Ted you teased? It looked like things got a little crazy

[@larryalexander4833]

Guys I strongly suggest you be aware of suggestions about burning . Here in upstate SC it regulated and very heavy wooded. Can be very dangerous and get out of control easily.

[@creatednordestroyed5339]

I think they Hickories have a high wild life value also

[@joshsinglefooter]

Smoking wood for bbq

[@showmetheheartland]

To what? Nothing eats the nuts but squirrels and bears.

[@danaharsh7592]

Hickory = great firewood. You're killing me boys!

[@Bhartrampf]

I was thinking the same thing, cut and stack instead of hack and squirt.

[@showmetheheartland]

Firewood is great. However, you'll never get through even a small area cutting up, stacking and hauling out all the wood. A big part of the benefit of hack and squirt is that it's quick. Not everyone wants a bunch of firewood.

[@michaelharden9184]

I don't like cutting the hickory trees as we are squirrel hunters

[@Landandlegacytube]

In no way would we promote cutting all the hickories but in this forest they’re dominating so cutting several will do nothing to hurt the squirrels

[@dougkraemer8327]

So why not have a logging company do this and get money out of the trees

[@OffRoadPlanetChannel]

Surprised you didn't have Jeff from WHS come.

[@fr8cture]

What do you mean building turkey habitat? They are literally taking over. lol

[@lesleyboeder1798]

Many areas have been seeing a drastically decline in the last 10 years of turkeys

[@fr8cture]

@@lesleyboeder1798 They must all be moving to Minnesota lol

[@dylanmatter1088]

Man this is scary. Please learn to fell trees.
