385: Turning an Ugly Property Into A Big Buck Haven with Max Wierda
from Habitat Podcast · host Jared Van Hees
Habitat Podcast #384 - In today’s episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with Max Wierda! We discuss: Ugly properties often hold massive habitat potential. Cover can matter more than food on pressured land. Food plots are often the gateway into habitat work. Waiting to learn a property before over-improving can help. Electric fencing small plots can dramatically improve success. Hinge cutting creates immediate browse and bedding cover. Michigan pressure pushes mature bucks into hidden pockets. Habitat improvement is a long-term learning process. Neighbor cooperation is critical for age structure goals. Massive bucks can exist where nobody expects them. And So Much More!
