347: Understanding Different Soil Types, How Soil Impacts Tree Plantings, and Creating Bulletproof Access with Jake Hofer
Habitat Podcast #347 - In today’s episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with my good friend and repeat guest Jake Hofer. We discuss:
Jake Hofer is a land agent and passionate whitetail enthusiast in Illinois
Trail cam activity is picking up as fall approaches, exciting hunters
Land sales are slower, with limited inventory available in the market
Jake emphasizes the importance of soil quality for planting trees and food plots
He has planted around 4,000 trees on his property, seeing significant growth
Food plots are crucial for deer health; Jake uses sorghum for cover and grain
Access to hunting areas is vital; staying off the land until the right time is key
Auctions can be an effective way to buy land, but require careful preparation
Measuring success includes tracking mature bucks and shed antler counts
Jake believes having multiple hunting spots improves deer management and success
And So Much More!
