RE: QDM question...
Coastie...I am well-versed in wildlife biology. I took several classes in college on the topic and have read every book available. I have put out food plots on alternating years for the past 7 years...added mineral licks and have planted apple trees as well as fertilizing my oaks.
Problem is that the dang nut crop hasn't hit in 4 years, and the deer that are there are mowing off my food plots. I know I should fence them...but I'm pouring all the extra $$$ I have into them the way it is.
