Show Notes

Its early June and it’s too thick already! With the spring rains, sunny days, and warm

Temperatures, most of the countryside has turned into a jungle of green vegetation. Most would applaud this as food plots are sprouting, but others with a keen eye for quality habitat begin to think it’s time for a disturbance. 

In a blink of an eye, we went straight to unusable habitat for a turkey poult in most places.  Can you pin point an area where a turkey poult would survive on your farm? Sure, fawns have plenty of cover and young forage, but your goals stated you wanted deer and turkey, not deer and accidentally having turkeys. 

It’s time to get serious about improving your land.  Get more out of the property, think and okay outside of the box. Creation has no box, it does what it wants, when it wants, how it wants. We should manage in the same way!
