For all the pyros, fire starts at 17:21.

So, it's been over 3 years since you posted this video and I'm curious about the yaupon. When you mentioned the fire killing it, did it actually kill it out? Or as I've seen everywhere else, did it only kill the tree above the ground and leave you with a tangle of dead yaupon skeletons, among which new growth sprouted to create more yaupon, which the next fire killed, which created more skeletons, which repeats every time you burn? There are hundreds of square miles of yaupon thicket in the area where I live that have been created by logging or prescribing fire. Most of that is a nearly impenetrable jungle, and for the most part, useless to wildlife because of it. I hope you have been successful at controlling that on your property. I'm of the mind that regular prescribed fire would consume the skeletons left by previous fires. Possibly by burning annually, and more than once a year? I know it makes a mess for damned sure.

It depends on the amount of heat. More often than not, the prescribed fire will top kill only. And the youpon will sprout back at the base, like you said. Burning more often will eventually kill the brush and hardwood. Then the canopy will open up, and the grass will start filling in. We have burned this area once more, and it's definitely thinning the oak and youpon.
