So looking at opinions and thoughts concerning this.
We have a lot of areas that are just tall native grass that will not be palatable in their given state, so I plan to shred and fertilize for the upcoming spring time rains. I want to do strips so the quail have plenty of tall hiding spots, so I figure shredding 25-30% would be on the high end of the work.
I've been doing some research about shredding native grasses instead of planting food plots, then following up with fertilizer. I already know that even without fertilizer the shredded grasses will attract deer as it grows back, but apparently if you fertilize native grasses the deer will congregate on them over the non fertilized areas.
I hunt down south and we all know how hit and miss the rains can be down there, so has anyone tried this or have any experience this?
