[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1793415, member: 6291"] We have the same issue with post oak trees on the prairie. They are invasive and take over the native grasses. Their leaves and littler choke the grass out. Burning through them thins out the litter and gets a bunch of trees because they are usually hollow any way. Down side is, it's one of the more risky burns because you have yo have low humidity to burn that litter. It definitely a burn I would prefer having a pasture of black down wind from to be safe. Some people zap them out. You will have grass quick but you can barely get though the pasture because of all the dead trees. Then you have to come through and use the grass to burn the downed trees.
