RE: Clearing the Land!!! Makeing more pasture and wildlife habitat one cursed thorn tree at a time
Hedge Apples (we call them Osage Oranges in my part of the country) are a real pain!
When I was a kid we cut and cured them for fence posts, walking sticks and recurve bows if they were straight enough.
The sucker growth would come back for several years.
Girdling the regrowth after the initial clearing worked well.
Yes they are a pain. The goats take care of the regrowth. They love the stuff. We burn some of it for heat. It burns really hot
