Everywhere. On our lease, whites are dropping like crazy. Chestnuts are like marbles, so abundant.
My place in perry county, decent. Definitaly off food plots and in the woods.

Me and Mike saw 2 deer out in the bottoms last night. They were standing about 600 yards out in the middle of that cut corn. Saw one copperhead in camp this morning while we were moving the new pooper.

I'm surprised at that Rich. We have a few Mountain Chestnuts dropping and that's it.

During bow season I will trade you properties.
I would much rather have little to no acorns. During the early part of the year I won't wait to kill does. It sure makes it tough to find deer with acorns all over the place.

My place in Perry has chestnuts dropping like crazy and a few reds. My whites and Chinkapin oaks are still holding. Even with the acorns on the ground though the deer have mowed the clover down in my plots in last few weeks.

I was up in Benton, Co this weekend on the TN river and the Whites were dropping pretty good.

Whites dropping fairly well here in Giles, but what acorns we do have are pretty small.

I found individual Mountain Chestnut Oaks that were absolutely pouring out mature acorns. But those trees were few and far between. I only found a very few scattered white, red, and black oak acorns on the ground, and all of those appeared to have been knocked out of the trees by storms or squirrels (not ripe yet).

The white oaks on my place in Benton County are dropping like crazy. The white oaks on my place in Madison County are just starting to drop a few.
