I had acorn feeder out in 2003 from spring to winter. I hunted it two times an got bored, then went back to my way of hunting I know best. I feel that hunting off of a corn feeder is an easy way to attract deer. We attempt to plant food plots each year. I do not think, that any of the above mentioned counts when the whiteoaks, willow oaks an the red oaks start dropping acorns.
