Default RE: no plow food plot

Okay I'm changing my mind about this.
that plan might not work so well for me.

now I'm thinking i might plant several plots that might be about the size of a garden if not smaller.
the main reason for this is I am refusing to put any more corn out. I burnt a hole in my pocket this season paying $7 for a 50 pound bag and I bought two or three bags a week.
take that number times the ten weeks i put corn out last season and it comes to over 150 bucks a season and for me that is way to much for lousy corn.
so i hope that by growing a small area around four stands i might be able to save myself the workout of carrying a bag over 700 yards and maybe a buck.

my question now is what can i grow that will attract the deer as well as acorns or corn but will benefit the deer?
nobody grows crops in the area, just cattle farms and hay fields.

I'm starting to second guess if i should have put this in the deer forums.
