do you have the option of cutting tree's down on this land? if you do you could hire a forester to mark some junk tree's and just cut them down and leave them. if you know some of the not so good tree's you could do some without a forester. look for tree's with poor form or tree's of little orno value, such as iron wood, poplar, soft maple ect..

Get a copy of Neil and Craig Dougherty's book "Grow 'Em Right". Read chapter 3, A Chaisaw is a Deer's Best Friend, several times.
