Default RE: food plot or feeder

We live in Lawtonand own 80 acres just north of Elmore City in Garvin county. About half the place is woods. For several years we have had both a feeder and a food plot. For an early plot this year we tried soybeans.Worked great until it got too dry. Later we planted wheat and blackeyed peas. They ate that up and we planted spike oats, turnipsand more wheat. Got to really put the seed on the ground. They eat it up fast.

This did a great job of keeping the deer on the place all the way through deer rifle season.There is no acorn cropthis year so we will have to get innovative to keep them there this winter. Next year the plots will be much larger. i've never killed a deer on the place because i never have tried-i hunt in Comanche county.My son has gotten three there.
