The loggers can clear-cut 100-200 acres in just a couple of week.


The only think you can count on not being cut.... is the trees in a creek bottom. And that is not always a true statement. A few years ago, I found a good spot about 40 yards from a creek bed and killed a doe from a pine tree that I climbed. Next year the hill side AND MY tree were clear-cut.


A couple years ago in early Oct., I found a bunch of scraps and rubs in an area that had 20 to 25 foot tall pine trees. I went back a week later and the crew had been working the area to thin out the trees. I walked in well before daylight and while stand there looking at the "open" woods, wondering what I should do, a big flat bed truck came past me. I went to a different area.

I usually wait until Sept. to scout CC. I want to scout a thick area that has big pine trees....I keep thinking it will be clear-cut.


And this is not the Hunting section.
