I have the same brush you have also in centtex. I'll tell you what I do and you can go from there.

1. mesquite-never ever shread. Go to brushbusters and follow the guidlines or look up killing mesquite here.

2. ceder/winged elm-basil stem spray of 5% remedy and diesel per gallon. Has worked well for me.

3. youpon- mine come out very easily with the fel. I can take a clumps of 2"ers out easily. They are very shallow rooted. A chain works on most to close the the trees to use a fel.

Take it slow and don't try to do it all at once. Hope it helps.
