[QUOTE="Gobble4me757, post: 5693967, member: 22545"] Yep it’s a balance. If there is no food while you may have them early in the year, the does will go find other food sources once the frost hits. I’ve noticed feathering in food plots works wonders for bucks in the 10 yard or so buffer of tall grass you can shoot through but they not thinking they can be seen. Also, large food plots I’ve noticed are better than small. If you’re going to do small, just do turkey foot strips through cover. One other thing…make your shooting house be off the field a distance as in 30 yards plus from the front of the field and plant some cover in front making entry and exit undetectable. I have seen good fields pull deer from all over. A lot of people don’t do a fertilizer method with their fields and of course deer don’t hit em good cause they taste like crap to them. Especially here in Tenn where people think big wheat fields are great food sources, if you go plant a mixed bag of clover, peas, oats, brassicas the deer will run by a wheat field to tear your field up.
