You have timber companies or others like Weyhauser in South Carolina that own HUGE tracts of land all over our state that are basically turkey deserts. Might as well be a parking lot as far as a turkey is concerned....what can be done? If there could be a study done about the cost and or money lost when providing turkey habitat on a pine tree farm, maybe a matching incentive from the state or other organizations could be offered to a land owner that chooses to provide turkey habitat on their pine tree farm....

I live in the low country of SC, and DNR has a reputation of burning woods when hens lay their nest. I know the coyote, coon, etc; has a pretty good population, so that doesn’t help either. But I will say on our farm land and club, we produced at least 6 long beards and probably 12 jakes spread across both properties last year. The hen numbers are pretty good too. But like I said, DNR doesn’t do too good down here. Take a look at duck habit/population. Majority of good stuff is private. We can only hope and pray for change. Good luck to you and anyone else this Turkey season. Be safe!

@danielsmith8659 Жыл бұрын

The real truth….. most of the people complaining don’t have huge tracks of private land they can manage . They either hunt timber company land or public in which they have no control or say so in how the land is managed …. The squeaky wheel isn’t places like Hollis farms.

The National Forest I hunt rarely burns anything or burns during turkey season. Smokey bear says no burning allowed on private in WV. Any time they cut timber on public people complain or try to stop it

I watch Jason’s channel and his place/land is awesome. Seems like a good guy. They have spent a lot of time and money over many years and I wish more land owners would do what they are doing but it takes money and time which most people don’t have. I’m from north Mississippi and I have hunted all over the south and hunted here when Turkey hunting was great and required no land management really. Now timber companies have transformed the south in to basically deserts for game. For example clear cuts are great for wildlife but not when you cut it then spray it with herbicide that basically keeps anything from growing other than pine trees for several years. The best thing that could happen is if we could get timber companies to burn in rotations. Cheap and great for wildlife. They should considering how much money they make off wildlife with their millions of acres leased.

Man this video makes so much sense. Definitely here in louisiana its the timber companies that have changed. Yeas of course the lack of trapping has had an affect but predominantly its the timber companies clear cutting too soon. With less thin cuts and less prescribed burns. And like a previous comment i dont think itll change unless there is an incentive to provide better turkey habitat. All about that 💰

There were some other details but that’s the major one.

Great video on the habitat. Was there any conversation about predator control? Due to having a vineyard I trap forty plus raccoons, opossums and skunks each season. Been doing it for eight or nine years. There are more and more turkeys, especially big broods, every year. I’m assuming the predator egg thief control has some role in that increase. I’m in SE MN

If you’re a private land owner you can definitely apply these concepts and without a doubt you will reap the benefits. Even on smaller 50-100acre tracts you will see the increase in wildlife. Unfortunately most of us hunt lease timber company land and 99% of the timber co’s could care less about burning or any type of land management. What they lose in a little bit of production they make up in lease dollars over the 25 years between clear cutting. They don’t care and it shows. Until they change their habits turkey, quail, and even deer populations will suffer.

@DIYWhitetail Жыл бұрын

I own a timber company here in east Texas and I love the way he is managing his timber, unfortunately large timber companies are not going to adapt to the 50 basal area strategy. If you thin past a 70-80 basal area the timber will not grow properly. It is a great Turkey habitat to thin it that hard, but the large timber companies won’t adapt to this. His theory about letting them grow is slightly flawed as well. The time value of money eats up any growth in diameter of timber. Unfortunately, the large timber companies will always max out their income. And the turkeys will suffer because of it. It’s sad.

Unrealistic when you’re leasing from a timber company, private landowners and their silver spoon mouth kids can accomplish this. That’s why you hear theirs no turkeys because 90% of the land in Arkansas is timber company or game and fish. No burning on timber company land, no herbicides so don’t act like we’re lazy, limited amount of trapping allowed. Habitat management is for the rich FACTS
