Yep the acorn crop is heavy here in my neck of west TN as well. The "2 year cycle" plus the cool/wet spring and summer really made a "perfect storm" for the acorn crop this year. My cornplots and oatplots are getting "light" pressure right now as the deer and squirrels are POUNDING DOWN the acorns! My experience of 30yrs in the woods says that NOTHING beats "oak nuggets" for attracting deer. They'll walk thru ANYTHING (including those "golden nuggets") to get at a real heavy crop of acorns. The weights of our critters this year shows this as well.
