John you are looking at it holding about ten head of cattle maxed if your lucky 15.  At $6 an acre witch would be as high as I would go. $1500 a year. If you had 10 calves that survive that would be $ 5000 a year on woods calves weaning them at 450 weight. If you figured 3 rolls of hey thats $150 per cow witch is another $1500 per year. Now you are $3000 in on the cows. But if you can figure in. A extra3 cows and push it hard it will cushion some of the $1500 if it would hold 16 head then it could cushion the  whole $3000 . I would be real surprised on woods pastures that it will hold over ten head. For all year long. If all was put together perfect you could clear a extra 5000 a year If put together on the low in you could clear $2000 yea year in extra income. Don't sound like much but if you had several of these pastures pretty close together 5000 could turn into $50000 real quick.
