Hey guys,
I just wanted to get your input on leaving corn for the winter.
I've read where people leave it standing, others, knock it down, still others brush-hog sections - so the deer will get on it.
Last year I left it standing, and while it wasn't a huge attractant during the hunting season (very mild winter - I'll add) it was HEAVILY used in Feb and March.
I like the idea of leaving it standing. We average 150" of snow here a year (only 80" last year), and 2 ft of snow on the ground is fairly normal after Jan 1. I also like the idea of having a 6 acre and 2 acre corn "thicket" for our deer to lay up in (2 separate fields)during the hunting season.
What are your guys' experiences? Do you leave it standing? Do you maybe knock some down or brush-hog some? Just Curious -
