[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5096651, member: 17"] In the past, when creating a new food plot, I usually looked for a location that: 1) would require the least equipment, time, and manpower to clean into a food plot, such as old log loading decks; or 2) was in the best location for deer traffic. However, over the years I learned poor-quality soils outweigh everything else. Now I choose food plot locations almost exclusively by local soil quality. In essence, find the best soil. Better soil means better plot growth which will draw the deer. My two newest plots, in locations chosen for soil quality. Not a rock in them. The only problem has been typical of a newly cleared location; i.e. roots, and lots of them. But they will slowly clear away over the next couple of years. [/QUOTE]
