RE: NAHC Food plot Article - bone to pick
Cows have more parts to their stomachs and regergitate (sp?) more times then deer. Most "deer clovers" can be digested easier and within 3 chews they are quite mashed and easily consumer and digested allowing easier absorbtion of nutrients. Stalky clovers are much harder to break down. Also, deer and cows have different tooth configurations from what I understand.
The clovers in many of the current commercial mixes have finer stems and braoder leaves then those bought as the local feed store. Mind you, this is a generalization but I hope it helps. TGK
