Food plots SW Wisconsin for November

[Bowsnbucks]

Updated pictures of parts of my food plots. The deer are now in the brassica plot multi times a day. The winter wheat is getting less action but I get a few pictures a day of deer eating in it. Wheat planted 9/20 and brassicas planted 8/11. Both received very little rain until recently.

I think you mentioned in an earlier post w / pics that your brassicas needed more P & K. Did you add any, & if so, what happened??

I did add some. I don't know if it was enough? I thought I had a pretty decent plot considering the lack of rain. The deer were in the plot very consistently. I'm glad somebody pointed out the lack of P & K so I'll know what to look for when I plant brassicas in the future.

It's been a month since I posted an update of my brassica plot. Deer usage appears to be slowing down significantly. I was getting deer in it multi-times a day/night after the gun hunt. The last few days it's slowed to a few deer a night. I did get a mature buck in the plot a couple nights ago which was a nice surprise.

Deer, especially bucks will move as winter approaches and after the rut. They are in heavy need to recover from the rut and will look for high energy food sources. After all the pressure from the hunting season and rut battles they like to look for areas they are not pressured. Some are recovering from injury and some are just worn out.
