Have an idea of how you'll control unwanted plants like cedar in any of the wildlife areas. He's done a lot of work to get rid of the cedar he'll want answers to keep it from coming undone. Prescribed burning kills small cedars. About the only way to get rid of them. They will always try and come back. It's a lot cheaper than bulldozing too. If I am correct in the area I believe the place is I don't think he would get away with any burning.

He can burn. We were out there last week burning some large piles of cedar and downed trees. Believe me if anyone would know what he can and can't do it would be him.

Burning a few cedar piles is a lot different than burning a pasture. All the rich folk living around it might not be real happy. But, if he decides to do it give me a heads up. I haven't seen a good screw up in a long time. I will bring my lunch with me to watch.

Don, I certainly didn't say a prescribed burn was what we were doing but rest assure if that's the route we went it would be an uneventful "screw up" for you to watch. Anything else you would like to tell me not to do?

Anything else you would like to tell me not to do? Yes there is one more thing. Be careful shooting around there. I wouldn't want you killing any innocent bystanders in River hills.

I believe she's a bow hunter. Getting stuck with a Rage BH would surely suck, but not as bad as removing it.

Ugh I couldn't imagine getting poked with a broadhead....lol. However if you wrap yourself in a deer hide, and walk near my blind in low light I guess it could happen!

If you see a 200 lb deer walking on two legs don't shoot. It's just me looking for a place to hunt.
