Eight Pointer
The 192 acres I hunt consist of 40% ag fields (beans this year), 40 % 1st. year cut over, and the remaining 20% is timber that runs as a green belt along a creek the entire length of the western edge of the property. My question is will adding a food plot or two when there is so much other food available make that much of a difference in general? It will primary be a harvest plot/s because currently not that many deer are calling the property home since the cut over took place back in April. As much as I love to work on the land and improve it investing $1000 on seed and fertilizer almost seems like a waste when the deer don’t use the existing beans on a regular basis. I have been hunting for over 30 years and have killed deer in six different states but the resident deer on this place are throwing me for a loop. Even back in summer. One camera check deer all over the place. Couple weeks later hardly any.
