persimions????
Do the deer eat persimions? I hunt and live in Okla. I have a place to hunt but its rough. I did notice a lot of persimions on this stand of trees.There wasnt many on the ground but the trees were loaded.Will the deer be eating them??Does any body know about these??? Thanks

set up a stand and wait,you will see a lot of deer.they love them.that is the reason theres none on the ground,the deer get them the day they fall.
I hunt every tree I can find with fruit on them...[:-][:-]

I have 2 Persimmon trees in my yard. the deer didn't wait for frost, ate every one that fell. They even rear up and knock some of the limbs that they can reach. I had limbs all over the ground. All the Persimmons were gone by the time gun season started. Set up your stand, they will come. (Just hope they don't go nocturnal. Never saw a single deer, but their droppings were everywhere

the coyotes will wear out the ground to get them.
The deer can come looking for the ones I don't pick up. Then I might just get to eat them second hand!
