Default How long will it take for them to change?

Our family farm is being logged this year. It started in early November, and they have taken a pretty good chunk out of it so far. All in all there is about 180 acres of timber that they will be going through taking the mature trees out of. That covers about half of the property with the other half being crop fields and some old pastures.

So my question is this. I know that the deer patterns are probably going to change some with the tree tops laying down, oak trees missing, and just the woods looking different.

How long do you think it will take for the deer to get adjusted to using the property again? I hope to be hitting the woods pretty heavily from mid January-March scouting and shed hunting.
