Default corn will they hit ti before or after they cut it

THere is a area that has a bean field due easy and a corn field to the west. There is a wood line that diviveds the two. It runs straight north to south.
The beans are just turning brown. The corn is 90% brown.
Will they hit the corn before it is cut or wait untill it is cut and eat the corn dropped on the ground.

Both.

However, when corn fields are cut, they seem to really draw deer. Of course those deer no longer can hide in the corn fields.

They LOVE standing corn, especially big bucks. they have everything they want cover food and if it is irrigated they have water. that is durring the summer. and once they pick it they will continue to use it. i have a spot that is picked and it is not a matter of if they are out but how many. they will also use it hard before it snows since there food might get covered.

how early would you guys head in to a uncut and cut field. A guy i know that hunts the same field says he must wait till it starts to get light because everytime he goes in with his light he spooks deer he said he had two large does right by his stand. Should i head in realy early or wait and not use the light
