During our full day consultation we were immediately impressed with Jason. We started off by reviewing some background information about our property and our goals and objectives for the property.  Jason's organization, knowledge and professionalism were apparent during this time and continued throughout the day.  He was able to point out signals of the deer density on our property that should have been obvious to a life long hunter.  The recommendations that were presented were logical, attainable and were prioritized for our group.  With some hard work and discipline we are looking forward to having a whitetail paradise in a few years.

Dear J, I wish to thank you for the time you spent at the farm.  The foundation you provided to my tenuous attempts at whitetail management will prove invaluable.  You left me with a clearer view and a definite direction.  I’m looking forward to showing you our progress during your next visit.

Thank you, Jason, for the two excellent presentations that you gave at the deer management short course.  Your presentation style was very well received by the audience.  You also come across with a sense of confidence and a breadth of knowledge and experience that is hard to beat.  I would highly recommend you to others needing information on deer biology, carrying capacity, quality deer management, and trail cameras. Thanks again for all of the information you presented, the audience really gained a lot from it.

We had been managing our property with food plots and forest management for several years before deciding to bring Jason in for a full day consultation. While we had seen some success with our program, we felt we needed some assistance to get to the next level. After 8 hours of questions, discussions and kneeling in woods and food plots, Jason shined a spotlight on areas we were doing well and most importantly, areas we were lacking on. One thing Jason said to me the first time I spoke to him was that once I bring him on as a consultant, I am always his client. Because a successful deer management program cannot be successful overnight, his ongoing consultation will be vital to our success. Jason's food plot research and development facility is a unique resource that I will visit year after year to aid in my own food plot choices. If you think you are doing everything right with your deer management program, do yourself a favor and make sure. I'm glad I did!

Jason’s seminars define the concepts of Quality Deer Management.  His cutting edge deer management information along with his town hall meeting style of presentation is sure to please all.  His passion for deer and deer management is evident once he gets started and he is hard to stop.  Keep up the good work!

The “food plot rage” in Pennsylvania has increased dramatically since the Pennsylvania Game Commission placed an antler size restriction on all whitetail bucks in most areas, and changed the focus from managing a “quantity” whitetail herd to a “quality” whitetail herd, one that is balanced with available habitat, with deer health, size, age, and nutrition all increasing as a result of this new management.  Many landowners have become interested in aiding the health, size, and nutrition of local whitetail herds by incorporating food plots into their landscape management plans.  Mr. Jason Snavely, Consulting Wildlife Biologist with Drop Tine Wildlife Consulting in Millville, PA, recently provided a very informative presentation on the proper planning and implementation of food plots into the Pennsylvania forested landscape.  Mr. Snavely’s presentation comprehensively covered the science of the relationship between a sustainable, quality deer herd, and the nutrition and habitat management for that herd.  Critical steps involved in creating and maintaining a successful food plot on a variety of sites, as well as identification of proper forage to use, seeding methods, and soil requirements were just some of the informative highlights of Mr. Snavely’s presentation.  Much of the guesswork and questions regarding successful food plot establishment and resulting deer health and quality increase were put to rest at the conclusion of the presentation.  Landowners attending the presentation who took good notes will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the future of their local white-tailed deer herd and other desirable wildlife populations.
