Around my neck of the woods a 50lb sack runs between 8-9 dollars....I dont buy corn anymore b/c I can buy a protein mix for the same price and the animals get more from it than corn by itself......The protein mix is running about 8.75 a 50lb sack......We start feeding the protein mix in Feb. and feed till Aug on our ranch and it gets rather expensive but in West Texas thats the only way to grow descent deer.....Not too much vegitation there!!!
