IMHO, it won't go very good for you if you hunt that 15 years old logged areabut I sure hope you do well.
I certainly wish you the best.

I hunt the same type of woods that were cut years ago...or should I say, I used to hunt that area.
I now realizewhy I was wasting my time......
Well that information is about as useless as it gets.

Would have been nice if you could have related your experience.

The thing is that this logged area isa small 20 acre area that is between a dirt road and the main woods. It's getting easier and easier to walk through it every year. Every year we push this area and get deer out, but usually with several people pushing and a couple of other hunters as shooters in the main woods. On a number of occasions, I have come close to getting a shotwhile walking right through the middle of this stuff. It's still too thick in some areas to hunt, but in the middle area couplevery nice 75-100y wide open areas loaded with deer sign. The deer mill around in there all day. I just need to catch one in there when I am in there. I think with the right conditions, still hunting and easing my way into those more open areas could be productive. Anyway, it's just something different to do midday instead of sitting on a stand looking at an empty field.
