I would suggest putting in a narrow swath of oats. The deer are already hitting my two oat plots. Good luck

Is that area 125 acres? Maybe try forage oats, clover or lab-lab.

I'd add some alfalfa.

There was a very good article on the home page about food plots, it is definitely worth reading.

Good Luck!

I would try some brassicas for a good winter food source. You could also go with an oat and rye mix.
