That's what I was wondering. The deer herd in and around our place is very large(SE Ohio). So is the turkeys. especially in the fall(flocks well over 60 birds). I think once they find it keeping it down shouldn't be a problem especially if the deer hit it hard, but I'll keep an eye on it. The only problem is I live 1.5hrs so driving down there every week or two isn't real convenient. Besides people feeding deer by way of feeders, we will have the only food plot around us. Hopefully this will keep the deer close and there by keeping control on the height of the clover. Everyone down next to where we hunt at feeds corn and that's it. I plan on adding a supplemental feeding station as well. I heard doing both food plots and supplemental feeding really draws the deer in good.
