Dan - the yarding deer has been our biggest issue - the can destroy a young woodlot - or small plot. That is why we plant between 10 and 20 acres of food plots - and leave lots of corn standing.

We've seen the difference the food plots make in our woods - by not being browsed to the ground every winter - here's a look at an aspen/maple woods -this month. Not too many years ago - it was open through this woods. - the plots take a HUGE amount of pressure off the woods bordering them.
