I think that 2 year old spot your gut and mind are right where I'd be. Along that big downed tree, id be clearing saplings and even considering spraying or at minimum raking once out and they'll choose it if they want. The hinging added a structure to your property which didn't exist prior and you're seeing first hand the power of it. So happy for it man! Cannot wait to continue following and hopefully this spring or summer even chatting on the podcast about it.

Thanks, Ty!!

This video got you a new subscriber. I agree... I wish more habitat people would show more examples of beds and other points of interest.

Looking forward to see how your property turns out, Mav!

Looks Great! A buddy of mine (crazy killer) has always said "if I cant see roof tops, I dont see good deer"

Any idea what kind of grass that is? Great video!!

I’m honestly not sure. It’s not cattails but grows in wet areas

@@draggindeeroutdoors looking to create a similar looking bedding area but I don’t have a ton of native grasses. Lots of fescue and Kentucky bluegrass that shoots up

I would have liked to see the before and after pictures . As I just got done with a spot hoping for not so much for bedding but for food by letting sunlight hit the ground . It was all trees so I had to burn too .

Have you tried red osier in and around these bedding areas to help hold up the grass and give browse? I have a swamp exactly like yours and the red osier exploded the deer bedding.

Yup I have! I've had decent luck planting red osier dogwood cuttings and very good luck planting willow cutting.

U need to improve your buck population, that habitat should be littered w rubs
