In many states you can call up your local state biologist and they will come out and go over your land with you. I had a big plus in that my State Biologist was also a bigtime Whitetail hunter so he already had a plethora of knowledge concerning hinge cutting, food plots, and habitat. He developed me a plan, put it in a three ring binder and it didn't cost me a thing but a day off of work and we are already starting to see results after the first year.
