I have a field that may be 2 acres at most.. I do plant it and it stays eat down. But it is in the center (dead in the middle) of about 80 acres. Surrounding the field is volunteer pine/gums/brush/briar thickets, I’d say 40 acres. Outside of the thickets are old growth hardwood, oaks and such, about 40 acres. I can see as many as 20 deer on camera there at times… get pics all throughout the day…if I ever feed anything they will be there before the wheeler gets good and gone of the field..
