When I replanted pines at my place after it was clear cut I made multiple long "lane" type plots. One is almost a turkey foot with the road making the outside toes and the main lane the middle. Another one is an "L" shape, and one is not really a "V" but more of an obtuse angle with a shooting house in the notch of the angle. Most of them are only 20 yards wide, which may be an issue getting enough sunlight to grow well once the pines get larger, but I wanted maximum acres back in pines.

These lanes have been great and I see way more deer than I used too. I was able to place stands in such a way that I can get in and out with minimal pressure. I have long straight rows when bushhogging/planting. In my mind it has made a noticeable improvement to my hunting.
