This past fall I discovered a very healthy grove of persimmon trees in my area. The ground was virutallly covered in 1000's of the fallen fruity globesand the crown of the trees looked orange from a distance. Because of schedule conflicts, I did not get to hunt this spot while the fruit was falling. Last week, I set-up a tree in the midst of this grove that I will hunt this fall.

Does anyone have experience hunting persimmons as a food source?

Are there any timing considerations? ...other than to hunt when the persimmons are falling to the ground.
