[QUOTE="bowhunterfanatic, post: 4505285, member: 7450"] I'll play the devils advocate here. IMO, corn isn't the answer. I know each farm is different but the main farm I hunt has probably 300-400 acres of cut corn on it as we speak. We've seen very few deer in the corn this year. However, our green plots have been absolutely destroyed, and that's with a bumper crop of acorns on this farm like I've never seen before. I know a corn plot would outperform a harvested corn field, but I think you'd be much better off clear cutting 4-5 acres to create some great cover and maybe select cut that much more area. Cover over food every single time, and if you don't believe me I'll invite you to come hunt the farm I'm speaking of for a day or two. We might get lucky and kill 1-2 nice bucks off ~1300 acres full of food each year, but our neighbors who have all the cover kill that many and more off much smaller farms each year. [/QUOTE]
