Default Foodplot before and After Pictures

We found an old log landing at a local sportsman's club I volunteer at after a few days hard work this is what we ended up with. I'm happy to say the least. Open to the public and should produce good nutrition for healthier deer. Sits about 50 yards from an old clear cut.

Ryan.

Before. Standing at the trail head

After, Standing where the log is on the road, the bushes to the right are gone also. We made a brush pile in the center for better habitat.

I know what you mean, what your seeing...... well it isnt what your seeing so to speak Like it was an over grown log landing and we brush hogged it all then we haroed it (essentially a tractor pulled rake) and that removed all the crap that was laying there, and we went through and cleaned up the ground there's a spring that's to the right that's not in any of the pictures, its a lot better in person, the pictures don't do it justice you know what I mean, Id be all for the renting a pump thing just the club would never be into that. thanks for all the good words guys, means a lot. I got a wild hair up my butt and made a food plot behind my house thats 15 yds by 12 yds I'm only going to shoot a buck out of it, I'd love to just see deer using it. That would be more than enough for me. The one I posted pictures above of was prolly 45-50 yds long by 30-40 yards wide. Ryan.
