5 year old buck +
My new property did pretty good this year for first year, had three bucks over 130 using in regularly. We cut corn about three weeks ago and it’s getting hammered every evening often times with 20+ deer. I was surprised that 3.5 acres of corn wasn’t torn down by mid November.
With spring coming I’m trying to decide on forage. I’ll have roughly 3 acres to plant either beans/likely RW if I go this route and they’d be fenced. Or run a Vitalize/droptine/green cover mix.
Fall plan would be to add brassica or a grain to the beans. If ai went with the summer mix I’d likely run their blend or make my own if I can do so cheaper.
My goals are to help the fawns, build some bone, and provide year round food. I have an acre and half of clover attached to this plot so regardless of which route I go there will be some food.
Curious what you all think. My mind is telling me do the mix so my deer have access and potentially hold a bachelor group which hasn’t happened on this property in past and invite a buck or two to set up shop. Just curious on yalls opinions.
