Ep. 221 Pickin’ Bones: Habitat Work You Should Do Right Now

For those of us who can do some habitat work, and for those of us who dream about owning our own piece of ground that we can improve for hunting opportunities, knowing where to start can be one of the biggest challenges. This episode aims to help get the ball rolling on some land management chores that can be done right now. Here is a list of things mentioned in this conversation:

1. Cut Shooting Lanes and Travel Trails for Deer and Hunters

2. Get a TSI plan from a forester and start the work

3. Plant trees

4. Order seed for native plantings

5. Don't Burn CRP or other prairie yet... wait until late April-Early May (depending on your latitude warmer states can burn earlier)

6. Lay out food plots and prep the ground for the planting (use native perennial food plot mixes)

7. Hang stands
