I used to rave about beautiful big woods. Face it after the acorns are gone, they are mostly barrel of any food for deer. They are only travel routes. CRP, pine plantations and swamps are where deer thrive. If you doubt this, start watching how many big bucks have muddy legs. You have to open up the canopy in mature hardwoods. A hardwood clear cut is deer heaven for browse and cover. You can burn every 2-3 years and it's like a fresh cut. Obviously, me and you have a different definition of "clear cut." Opening the canopy for me is only taking out " x" amount of trees and leaving the rest. I call that a select cut. Done in pines I just call it a thinning. I call a clear cut when no trees are left. My clear cuts dang sure has an open canopy.  Have to watch the loggers closely on a select cut. They will "high grade.". That's taking out the best trees leaving less quality trees. I want junk gone first letting the best quality to thrive.
