Default RE: First cut on my hunting land...

I got a couple questions for you guys that cut hay. I do not, so I'm just asking.

First question, everyone know right around the first of June is when most fawns drop (at least around here). Unfortunately every farmer seems to cut hay during the first week of June when the fawns are not old enough to escape. What would it hurt or matter if a farmer waited until the third week of June to cut? Or cut the last week of May?

Second, if a farmer just has to cut the first of June, then why the heck can't they use a flush bar if they are so conserned over killing fawns and turkeys?

I'm not trying to stir the crap pot, but I seriously want to know why farmers act like they care about running over critters when a few preventative steps can be taken?
