I bought a farm 3 years ago (several hundred acres). Had to clear cut to help pay for it so now I have a clean slate to start with. The property has about 140 acres in ag or food plots. I have started planting most of the cut overs back with a mix of longleaf and loblolly. My next step is to start planting hard and soft mast trees geared specifically for wildlife. For those of you that have tried different trees, what have y'all had the most success with in regards to survivability and more importantly use by wildlife? Sawtooths were the "magic tree" at one time but the more I see and hear about them, the less impressed I am with them.Any other oaks ya'll have had sucess with? For soft mass, I'm thinking persimmon/pear/crabapple. If it matters, the land is in Claredon County and is sandy but also has several stream bottoms running through the property.
