Forestry Mulching for Hunting Properties: How to Create Ideal Wildlife Openings

Cut Brush – Raleigh, NC | Clear Land. Create Opportunity.
For landowners and hunters in North Carolina, the key to a successful hunting season isn’t just
timing, it’s land management. And one of the most effective tools available today for creating
prime hunting conditions is forestry mulching.
At Cut Brush, we help property owners throughout Raleigh and surrounding counties create
and maintain wildlife openings and habitat improvements using environmentally friendly
forestry mulching techniques.
Here’s why forestry mulching is quickly becoming the preferred method for building better
hunting properties.
Why Wildlife Openings Matter
Whether you’re targeting whitetail deer, turkey, or upland game, every hunter knows the
importance of open feeding areas.
Wildlife openings (also called food plots, shooting lanes, or bedding areas) provide:
● Natural food sources and forage
● Safe, open spaces for wildlife to feed and travel
● Strategic shooting lanes for blinds or stands
But if your land is overgrown with dense brush, saplings, and undergrowth, these openings
are hard to create without heavy equipment and a smart strategy.
That’s where Cut Brush comes in.
How Forestry Mulching Works for Hunting Properties
Instead of bulldozing and removing all vegetation, forestry mulching uses a high-powered
machine to grind brush, small trees, and undergrowth directly into nutrient-rich mulch. No
burning, no hauling, no erosion.
On hunting land, this process can be used to:
● Open up travel corridors and game trails
● Create new food plots or expand old ones
● Build quiet access roads for ATVs or walking
● Clear underbrush in pine stands or hardwood groves
● Establish bedding areas or “sanctuaries” for deer
And because we preserve the topsoil and avoid deep ground disturbance, wildlife returns
quickly – often within days.
Benefits for Wildlife (and Hunters)
Forestry mulching doesn’t just clear land, it improves it.
When you mulch brush and saplings:
● You expose native grasses, legumes, and natural browse
● You allow sunlight to reach the forest floor, increasing plant diversity
● You reduce tick and pest habitats by removing dense underbrush
● You maintain cover for deer while opening up visibility
In short: you make your land more attractive to wildlife, and more accessible for hunting.
Strategic Mulching Plans for Serious Hunters
At Cut Brush, we work with hunters and landowners to develop smart clearing plans based
on:
● Property layout and terrain
● Prevailing wind direction and bedding areas
● Food sources, water access, and existing cover
● Stand and blind placement
Whether you’re managing 5 acres or 500, our goal is to help you maximize the hunting
potential of your land, safely, quickly, and affordably.
