    I have just learned of an easement (it did not come up by my title company) of about 255 feet allowing the neighbor access within my south fence line. The guy has turned into a slight nuisance as there is another road within 25 feet of this easement he can use. I may just put 4 gates on that 255 feet. Need to learn what my recourse is with the title company however? Glad to hear you got a GREAT resolution to that nonsense!!!
    I’d want to do the same thing, too!

      I was talking with a TPWD biologist a while back and he said that the department has a program for converting improved pastures back to native grasses. They would pay for the roundup to kill off the non-native grasses and also pay for the native seed. The landowner would be responsible for the labor and tractor work. I would assume it is still available.

        Yes, it is still available. I was told I had to buy the seed but there was some counties that would lend the landowner equipment to plant. Yes, labor was definitely on the landowner.....lol. Sounded a great way to the get land back to what was there long ago when wildlife flourished in east Texas.

          That program is called PUB. Looks like he is out of the focus area. That would be my advice, plant native grasses/forbs and use fire to manage it. I have successfully restored several hundred acres and can definitely tell a difference in deer numbers/quality.

            I'm going to look into it.
