Home/For Timberland & Hunting Land
Firebreaks, shooting lanes, food plots, camp roads, survey and fence lines. Annual work on ground that mostly gets left alone the other eleven months.
Everything on a hunting tract has a window, and most of them are narrower than people assume. Miss the window and you’re doing it badly, or doing it next year.
| When | What |
|---|---|
| June to July | Firebreaks refreshed before the dry season. Camp roads opened up after spring growth. |
| July to September | Shooting lanes cut. Food plots cleared, mulched and levelled ready for disc and seed. This is the window. |
| October | Too late for fall plot establishment and every machine in the county is booked. |
| November to February | Best clearing conditions of the year. Leaves off, firm ground, good visibility. Survey and boundary lines, larger clearing work. |
| March to May | Maintenance cutting, break maintenance, general clean-up before the growing season takes off. |
Most tracts in north Mobile County are forty-five minutes to an hour from our shop. Four separate call-outs means four mobilisations. Lanes, two plots, a break and the camp road done in one two-day visit costs meaningfully less than the same work spread across the year, and it means one conversation instead of four.
We’re not foresters and we don’t write management plans. We’re not agronomists and we don’t pick your seed. If your land is enrolled in a cost-share program or under a conservation easement, check what it permits before we start, because those agreements can restrict mechanical work in ways that aren’t obvious. Alabama Forestry Commission and Alabama Extension both publish good guidance and both are free to talk to.
