Excellent work Dr Woods! Enjoyed getting to pick your brain the other week on the phone. Look forward to getting you to the new property soon!

What is REALLY cool is to look at the results of Georgia island deer that were stocked inland into range with prime native foods.

I don’t really have anything important to add but I know that comments help the channel with the algorithm so here’s mine!

3rd year of the Release Process, just got my soil tests back, no increase in organic matter, big bummer....but we had a wicked drought in 2023, so probably no surprise.

I’m looking forward to this. I want to try this is Houston. We have swamp like gumbo clay. I know it will work!

Starting my warm season food plot for the first year . So excited to use as many of your strategies as possible. Lack a lot of the tools and equipment. But have a lot of sweat equity to add. I can do more with hand tools than so.e might think.

Keith, You videos are very educational and the release method makes perfect sense. Also love the fact that you always tie in how plants and organisms were designed to function together by the Creator and you’re not shy about letting people know the Creator is God and our redeemer is his son Jesus Christ. You’re an inspiration sir!

Have you seen where having summer food has attracted and kept a larger number of does and fawns that took over the areas that bucks would live in during hunting season,effectively keeping the number of mature bucks that may use the property down?

I've never seen that nor have I known anyone that has experienced this. I don't know of any deer biologists that's reported this.

I've got a 1.2 acre field that's just in fescue and sage grass (Alabama). In light of your thoughts on disking the field, how would you start the process of converting that field to a summer plot?

@GrowingDeerTV 3 ай бұрын

Jay - fescue can be killed with glyphosate. If it's not to green, great results often come from burning the plot first, waiting the fescue to grow about 6" tall and then applying glyphosate. Burning removes the duff so the herbicide reaches the living fescue.

@@GrowingDeerTV Very helpful!! I'm actually planning to burn it this afternoon. Like you, I try not to use Gly but sometimes it's just what you have to do. Thanks for getting back to me. God Bless you brother!
