I just received permission to hunt a tract of land right along the MS river. Our farmer took us down there today and showed us the boundaries of where we can hunt and told us that when he was a kid he used to hunt down there all the time and that there were several open areas that they planted turnips and whatnot for the deer. I scoped it out on Google maps and I see the open areas he was talking about but from what I can tell it appears that they are overgrown very thick (not trees just vegetation) and partially covered in Kudzu. He told us today that it's been years since he's been down there so it's been awhile since it's been tended.
We'll take some 4 wheelers down there and scout things out but if I figure out I can get my tractor down there to the areas that are "open" are there any suggestions anyone can give about cutting through that stuff? I know one of the main things to worry about it holes, but I figure if they planted the area in years past it probably isn't too holey. (I will ask him about that though.) I guess I'm somewhat worried about the vines wrapping themselves around the PTO shaft or the shaft on the bushhog blades. Any ideas or am I worrying needlessly?
