never done it before was thinking about doing it this year from April-July I hunt on 600 acres of timber company land and was thinking about having 3 stations and mixing corn, record rack, and the cheap protein pellets from academy in each feeder. also i have 1 trough feeder and 2 moultrie feeders that i ordered dinner plates for. i also plan to establish a mineral site next to each feeder. just wondering if anyone has any advice when it comes to supplemental feeding.

also if anyone knows where to get cheap protein that would be very helpful

Try Casey Feed in Letohatchee, they should be close to you.

did it for years using soy bean and corn mix. Much better products out there I was just keeping the overhead down. I had six feeders on 200 acres and keep them going February through the first of October when I planted. I feel it kept more deer on the property as sightings increased significantly and body weights went up about 20pds the first year. Feeding and letting the little bucks walk we started taking 130 class deer in lower Alabama within 3-4 years. Then we lost the property. Classic story.

Thanks for the info I'll check it out next time I go down to Buttler county i pass through letohacthe on I 65

This video is actually what made me want to start supplemental feeding and planting summer food plots I'm unable to do the summer food plots because of lack of time and equipment

Thanks for the information

I really like the growing deer channel it's just hard to convert everything he does on leased land

Thanks. I enjoyed that.

You need to check with the timber company,to see if they allow feeding deer.I know I was in a club in centervillie.That timber company would,nt even let us put out plain white salt blocks.they clamimed the deer made trials to the salt which the deer damaged there there tree,s

You can also check with JEB Feed on 31 north of Prattville about 1/2 mile before the interstate. And Greenville Co-op

That was an interesting study in the video. What I gathered from it was that supplemental feeding would indeed make a difference but it sounds like you really need a decent size piece of land and a lot of disposable income. The real gains from supplemental feeding in the study weren't seen until the second generation. That means that you need to feed for a number of years before you really start seeing a difference. It didn't really look like to me that going out for one or two summers and feeding would really impact things enough to justify the cost.

I agree not trying to grow Boone and crochets just trying to mainly hold more deer on my property
