Yep, it sure is a good idea to do. One of the areas that I hunt, I have to walk through some very tall grass (over my head). I usually take a sickle to it and make a trail in September. My only problem in doing this is that I am also making a good walkthough for the deer which also seem to use a lot. In that case I'm not sure if I'm helping the matter or hurting it. If I end up leaving it though, I will also get soaked (trust me) from the morning due.
If you can, just cut a little further and loop back to your stand, so you give yourself a little shooting lane before they walk right up to your stand - If that makes sense?
