In today's podcast you are going to learn how to turn "junk timber" into whitetail woods.
The term junk timber is over-used, misused, and used incorrectly. Today, we set the record straight on recreational properties where the goal is to improve the property for whitetail deer.
Not all value for deer is found within oak species. Although they provide a lot of potential from the mast they produce, other tree varieties can provide an immense amount of woody browse and cover. These trees don't come in the form of towering oaks, but are often mid-story or smaller DBH trees. When cut and not treated with an herbicide they offer incredible amounts of forage when they resprout for deer. Learn how to capitalize on your junk timber!
