RE: food plots
Gotta agree with everyone, its probablly going to be a waste of time. Also, no food plot is going to be the magic hunting tool as they are portrayed on television. I have several decent sized food plots planted throughout the properties I hunt, mostly made of clover, alfalfa, and chickory, and I never actually hunt near them. I typically don't see activity in the plots till after dark so their whole purpose is to just add a high protein food source to the deers diet. I would much rather find a good stageing area and set-up close to that, this seems to be one of the best tactics for me as the deer are usually in this area with plenty of day light left and they seem fairly comfortable.
