Be sure to leave a few bushes/trees when you clearcut. Its amazing how a few Islands of older brush/with a couple trees will attract and hold whitetails in a young clearcut. It helps them feel a bit more secure when feeding in the daylight hours - and eventually will provide you with some trees to hang stands on!

Good luck - Follow the Soil Sample for Lime if needed.

Call your Agrigultural Extension office for ideas on a good southern pasture mix.
