I've seen a few youtube hunting channels planting "plot screens" on edges of some of their food plots. The idea being that if they have the edge of the food plot screened in, a cruising buck will need to come into the plot to check to see if there are any does present. Maybe I am misunderstanding the purpose, but it seems like this is at odds with edge feathering. I was under the understanding that edge feathering was removing the hard edge that many food plots have, and it extends the border more naturally into the surrounding cover. Are these two strategies at odds with one another? Are these food plot screens just another way for bagged seed to get moved off the shelves? Is this something that makes sense to us but is not actually how deer behave?
