We specialize in custom food plots precisely tailored to the unique soil composition and specific location of your land

General Information

Forage is your land's top magnet for a diverse array of wildlife.
Sustained forage presence keeps deer and non-migratory wildlife on your property throughout the year.
Consistent forage fosters robust local herds, potentially yielding larger trophy animals.
When natural forage is scarce during deer season, your food plot becomes a prime hunting location.
Wildlife management, including food plots, demands year-round dedication to conservation.
High-protein forage in summer and fall supports deer health and vitality

Timber Stand Improvement

Our TSI plans are designed to help you maintain the health and vitality of your forest. We can gear our work towards timber value or wildlife improvements, or find a happy medium. Our experts will work closely with you to develop a plan that meets your needs and fits your budget.

General Information

TSI stands out as the most effective method to enhance wildlife habitat
It may take 5+ years to witness significant improvements through TSI
Delaying the start of TSI by each year will hinder your ultimate goal
As an age-old saying goes, "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, but the second best time is now."
The end result justifies the time and effort invested
Your land will undergo a complete transformation, leading to flourishing wildlife populations
A vital part of TSI involves removing specific trees to alleviate overcrowding
This reduces competition for resources, accelerates tree growth, and maximizes the quality of high-value trees

Prescribed Burning

Prescribed burning enhances timber stands by reducing understory competition, improving soil nutrients, and promoting tree germination.
Prescribed burning replicates the natural role of fire in many ecosystems, fostering biodiversity, recycling nutrients, and maintaining ecosystem health

Native Habitat Enhancement and Restoration

At LPT, we are experts in restoration of our treasured Texas wilderness. Native habitat restoration in Texas reestablishes original ecosystems by reintroducing native species and improving ecological processes. It counters habitat degradation from urbanization, invasives, and agriculture.

General Information

Restored habitats offer benefits like improved water quality, pollination, and carbon sequestration
Conserving and restoring the state's natural landscapes, ensures long-term benefits for both hunters and wildlife
Native habitats are better adapted to local climate conditions, making them more resilient to changes in temperature and precipitation
Restoration efforts often involve managing and removing invasive species
Native habitats are a part of Texas' natural heritage, restoration ensures that these landscapes are preserved for future generations to appreciate and enjoy
Restored native habitats stabilize soil and prevent erosion, reducing sedimentation in water sources. This benefits both grazing areas and water quality for wildlife

Supplemental Food, Water & Shelter

We will work to identify your lands strengths and weaknesses. Then these resources are strategically inserted to assist wildlife when cover is lacking and through times of drought and scarce forage.

General Information

Supplemental feeding boosts deer herd health and population size
Using a feeder makes for a prime location to set up a stand
Supplemental water is essential, particularly in arid regions, ensuring the survival of various species during droughts
Supplemental shelter for deer through the creation of brush piles provides crucial refuge during extreme weather conditions and makes for more productive fawning habitat
Providing supplemental shelter for native Texas birds, such as birdhouses or nest boxes, offers essential nesting sites where that may be naturally inadequate

Pre-Purchase Survey & GIS Mapping

We offer pre-purchase wildlife land surveys and advanced GIS mapping to help you make informed decisions about potential properties, ensuring they align with your hunting goals and land use objectives.

Pre-Purchase Survey

Comprehensive pre-purchase land survey to assess wildlife habitat quality, population, and migration patterns, optimizing the property's potential for hunting and wildlife conservation
Our service provides prospective landowners with essential data, enabling them to make informed decisions by understanding the property's game, agriculture, and timber potential

GIS Mapping

We create customized GIS maps highlighting wildlife habitats, biodiversity, invasive species, and migration patterns to inform land management and conservation efforts
Our GIS mapping allows landowners to make informed decisions on where the best possible locations for deer stands will be
