They wont have a hard winter if the hunters would put back in to the system what they take from. Open your pockets and put 1 200 lb digital feeder for every10 acres. Use corn mixed with deer pellets at a rate of7 lbs per feeder per day. Thats what most people I hunt with do all year , bad or good weather.
i just bought 20 bales of alfahfa at 4 dollars a bale to feed deer.
also 10 ,100 pd bags of corn at 10.50 ea.
all this go to my hunting area to feed a few deer.
we are removing some of our feeders at sportsmans club do to NO DEER coming to them,thats very sad thing for me to see.
i remember many deer at those feeders for a long time.
stink hollow, drakes,diamond rock, mac hollow,are all dead deer areas now that used to hold a lot of deer.
