If you say there's nothing being done to the SGL's in this area,I'll argue all day long about that.Some excellent groups do offer help and it shows with both better habitat and better deer numbers on the SGL's around here.There's two public browse cutting this month and next month.If you want to help,I'll gladly hook you up.I just got off the phone with a guy from the food and cover crew.He told me about a new clearcut that I want to check out.
