[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3745540, member: 5412"] I'm always disturbed when seeing a native grass field with 3' eastern red cedars starting in it. The landowner could easily use a brush hog to mow them down and they won't grow back if cutting them down below the bottom limb. I get it that it could be rocky ground and a tractor can't get in there, but when little, they are easy to eliminate. I've kept our pastures tree free by using shotguns to shoot them in half at ground level for many years while walking the fields for pheasant or quail. One of our members and I used #2 lead shot to eliminate about 50 one day on one quarter. Push them over with the foot and blast away. Smaller shot works as well but I have a plethora of #2 lead shotshells. We have eastern red cedar elimination written into our contracts for the person that leases our farm ground, but he seems to ignore it. His time may be limited...... [/QUOTE]
