Deer and apples???
 
Well i was doing a little scouting today and found several apple trees that are dropping apples right now. My question is will the deer eat them often when there is hundreds of acres of corn,beans,hay,and wheat to eat?? Thanks for any tips.

Apples are a very prefered food source for deer as well as many other critters and yes they will go out of their way to get them before "somebody else" does.

yes deer do love apples & they also love corn & beans question is when will they be there? ( your ship might be in when your at the airport )

Apples are the best deer feed/attractant i have seen or used. Not many apple trees by me though i have to buy them and it gets expensive[:@]

wi buckstomper, I was speaking totally natural trees dropping them, not baiting them.

Two things about apples.......
They will come into town for them..(pic from my front porch)


and it's a Really Good thing to find Apple trees on property you have permission to hunt...hopefully they are still in the habit of showing up after the season opens for you;)

FIND A TREE TO HUNT OUT OF NEAR THE APPLE TREES OR ON THE TRAVEL ROUTE TO OR FROM THE APPLES TREES FOR THE FIRST WEEK OR UNTIL THERE IS NO APPLES LEFT!!!!!

IT HAS WORKED FOR ME IN YEARS PAST!!!!!!!
