Questions About Supplemental Feeding
Alright is been a while since I have posted pretty much because deer season has almost come to a close for me here in Ohio... we only have 4 days of muzzleloader season left and the rest now coming up... I'm already thinking about next year...
My main thinking about next year if I would really like to try supplemental deer feeding starting in early March with a higher protein deer mix.. I already have a nice deer mix picked out here at my local feed store that is about 20% protein.. it's not a pellet mix more of a molasses soybean corn sunflower grain mix ..... in also going to be using a gravity off the ground feeder for it a lot like the Boss Buck feeders... I'm going to buy a nozzle from their site and crest my own feeder from some old drums
I would like to attach the nozzles to the feeder... I know this grain mix does not to well when wet so did not want to use a timed feeder... I'm also going to be putting out some Big & J cubs starting in march because they are 22% protein... the plan is to feed them most of the summer
Just trying to pack as much protein into the deer during growing season
Here are a couple up and comers on the property for next year
Also this buck was shot off the farm during gun season... one of our old ghosts on the property.. we have seen this buck for years and happy my cousin harvested him.. he is 7+ years old... he was actually on his way down
