Timber Stand Improvement
A common mistake many property owners make is deciding to stop all timber harvesting immediately after their initial cut, thinking, “I won’t cut another tree—my woods are a mess.” Unfortunately, this often leads to low-quality timber dominating the canopy, blocking sunlight and preventing your better, younger trees from reaching their full potential. This limits your future timber harvest opportunities.
Our team can perform Timber Stand Improvement (TSI) to enhance the quality of your timber while also creating superior bedding cover for your deer. Step by step, we’ll help you transform your property into a true Whitetail Mecca.
We are expert practitioners when it comes to eliminating lesser-value trees. We selectively remove trees to enhance the deer habitat by creating better access to food and cover, often through thinning the canopy and encouraging undergrowth. This can be beneficial for many purposeful reasons.
- Browse and more cover for the deer.
- All-around habitat improvement.
- Edge habitat for better deer movement.
- More secure sanctuaries.
- Improves future timber value by eliminating lesser trees.
