They were larger than the typical deer for this area. They had been well fed by my foodplot and corn. Not to mention there were 6 or more white oaks that had a bumper crop of acorns in this area.

just curious here but i was told by a few local hunters if your clear out around the oak trees and fertilize that you can have a bumper crop of acorns every year. I thought they would have one good crop every couple of years. is there any truth to this.
