We had a 3 acre corn field that really made good this year. The deer ate
every kernel before bow season.
I gave up growing corn for this reason. The first year I had a very nice 3 acre patch that made really well and the deer wouldn't eat it in the early season. They had never seen any growing in a field before and didn't seem to know how to eat it. It was February before the cleaned it up. The next year they were familiar with it and cleaned the field before Christmas. The next year it was completely gone by October 15, so I gave up growing it. But I waited about 5 years until all those deer were dead and was able to grow it a couple of years and have at last a decent length of time. Nice pics, OP.
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

I'd put alfalfa up against it any day I've heard good things about alfalfa but never tried it. The people around that have tried it had a hard time getting a stand. You have no problem with that? Seems they said something about the heat? No I had no problems with it. I plowed it under this winter after 4 years. Gonna plant the spot in something else this spring, then replant alfalfa in spring of 18. The first 3 years it would grow 18" in 24-28 days after cutting it for hay, in May or June and again in September. Soil pH MUST be correct.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

Black oil. Cheap, easy to plant, require little to no fertalizer. Deer seem to like em pretty good. When do you plant them? Are they still standing when gun season starts?
