Will corn cause more deer to be killed? Don't know but it there is I'm willing to bet it will be told to us that it is just a jump in Game Check reporting by hunters. Around 37% for 3 years will now be 47% in year 4. Mark it down, an increase in number of deer killed will be viewed as hunter reporting increase. I killed more this year because of corn. Mark me down for 1 who would not have been killed without corn

Have only hunted once this year so far - a few weeks ago during bow season. With that said, I've seen a TON..................of empty corn bags on the side of the road. Seriously, all over the place.

Of course more deer will be killed, they all gonna get fat and lazy.

Corn will really be effective if we get some really cold weather. they don't need it until then. They will eat it some sure but when it gets real cold they need the high carbs for warmth.
When it’s warm hunt the green. When it’s cold hunt the grain.

We've got way more daylight buck pics this year than we ever did before. It hasn't translated to getting one on the ground yet but last year all our big bucks were strictly nocturnal. We've got one feeder that's been having regular daylight visits by a shooter. Better believe I'll be sitting all day on Thursday

Saw about 15 deer on a field Sunday afternoon. One was a decent wide 8 point just young. A mama and yearling fed at the feeder for just a few min That’s it. Buck never came near it. It takes deer a while to get used to a feeder on a field. I had a feeder 40 yards off a field last yr that dozens of deer ate out of constantly last year. I moved it into the green field about a month ago and they act like they have never seen it before. I have pics of 3 deer eating out of it in a month but can throw corn around the feeder on the ground and every deer in the field will be there eating til it's gone. Deer are weird

BAITING IS A JOKE. First time ever for me. I put bait out last Saturday. Just poured on ground. I honestly had near or more then 100 shot opportunities at 30 yards of deer head down broadside feeding probably 25-30 different deer. Including a bachelor group of 3 5 plus year old men of the woods bucks that came in with 4 minutes left. I passed the stud bucks at 15 yards to let them get to bait to shoot biggest and they were a little skittish and backed off at about end of legal shooting. Next 3 different folks set for an hour on Sunday an took a doe for meat. Went with nephew this morning and saw 9 come to bait pile in lowndes today in an hour. Nephew took a huge doe letting shooter buck for most walk. IT MAY CHANGE but baiting isnt hunting right now. IT'S more like shooting your grocery meat.. All this makes no sense to me, pass at 15 yards to shoot at bait pile! You need work on your story telling

re Crush Cam, they don't use straight corn ... best i recall, they "homebrew" their own feed ...
