Probably be my last post on the habitat Doug because we're basically at a standstill probably agreeing on 70% of the issue.Not sure if you saw the pic by my cabin where I opened up the canopy and the red maple stump sprouts went crazy.The forester I hadthere{Dave} said this will happen when you open the canopy.He also pointed out the sprouts/limbs growing out the bottoms on up on my existing maples.He said this will happen when the sunlight gets in and it's great for wildlife but not for timber.Doug you know Dave and can verify this if you doubt me.My area by the cabin has more deer then say rockton mountain yet they're saying the stump sprouts won't grow out there because of deer.Yet my area with a definate higher DPSM has stump sprouts growing like crazy only when I open the canopy.They won't grow 50 feet over in the shade.Can you see where my reluctance is to embrace all this?
Also I know we had too many deer for too long,we're in agreement with that.

Howdy denny,Any org that fights to stop a reasonable hunting season in my book is definately not good for hunting.I've done research on them before this and it's hard for me to stop short of calling them anti hunting.Greenpeace on the other hand is one of our worst enemies.Not sure if the government ever did it but they were considering listing them as a terrorist organization here at home.
