I use 'whole oats' to do my food plots/small ones bout a acrer.Like he said,i wouldnt use pea's or soybeans,they eat um as they come up
I like using oats they'll eat it down in about a week,so every 2 weeks i grab a few hand fulls of oats and spread them over the food plot again,they always come up and the deer have a fresh food source in about 1-2weeks,hope for some rain
and in fact,i just went out and bought a bag yesterday,11$,its a pretty big bad,it'll do a few acrers atleast
