This is something that we are currently working on.

150 acres. Fairly flat with (3) 1 acres food plots and about a thirty acre Reed canary swamp. I’m in Maine, so a lot like Michigan.

For those that have created bedding pockets in the timber what have you found that works best/ doesn’t work. Size, how far about, etc. I have yet to have a timber harvest but need to create some bedding areas and am trying to avoid hinge cuts. Any advice would be great. My woods are just too...

Really looking for one for pelletized lime.
