Very true, the region I hunt is really a poor region for whitetail nutrition, it could very well be that. Our year round program is done through bulk type feeders, they are there for the deer 24/7 and we don't hunt any of these feed sites ever, so there is virtually no pressure on these sites other than filling them. I will also add that once the deer start getting "frisky" it is a whole other ball game all together....Either way it was an interesting read!!!
