    Once you have some clear spots you could throw some acorns out, pick up a bunch next autumn at hagley park. Pigs love them and at least in North America the deer seem to go for them too.
    Could also try some tree lucern - most stock will go for it and makes reasonable firewood. Old neighbour when I was a kid would periodically cut trees down, let the animals eat all the greenery and ring up what’s left for winter.
    Sowing some cleared areas with clover would be a good attractant, a good cover of this will out complete most of the weeds and pasture for grasses for quite a while - esp if you give it a mow now and again…unless the animals totally blitz it first!
    If you are in a dry area some water troughs or ponds can also be a good lure.

    Good luck with the project, sounds awesome!

    Property sounds awesome!
