RE: A Question About CORN!
 

I agree with Timber and Fldeerman, The racoons will break the corn stalk down just under the ears.

Cskiff, I can tell you what Jerry Baker(the garden guy) says to stop that.He says if you will get the cheapest perfume you can get, and dab it on the corn silk as it starts to grow,it will keep the coons away while it grows.If you are talking acres then I don't think it would work.

Hunting is not a sport,it's a lifestyle.

Jimmy S, LOL!!

I've seen the same exact results on our farms that others have mentioned. The squirrels (tree rats) will drag pieces of corn all over the place. Raccoons will break stems and take ears of corn away.

Deer will sit right there in the cornfield and munch away. Occassionally they'll bed in the cornfields too. Best bet is to have someone push through the corn while others wait on the edges. Next to impossible to hunt cornfields with a bow.

If you have turkeys in the area they can do more damage to corn than the deer will. They light on the stalk anr ride it to the ground breaking it off.
