What would you say are the top 5 types of browse a deer will go to this time of year?

Acorns and whatever you have planted on your land.
They seem to be hitting acorns during the day, and fields and night.

Ok sorry, should have been more specific. Besides acorns which seem to be done here and no planted anything. Just looking for native, wild plants only.

Mhmm maybe little shrubs or something, all I know is they are hammering acorns and fields right now. I've had more pics in one night on a field than I had during the whole bowseason!

Plots are not what I consider browse, its natural plants.
it really depends on where you are. around Troy there is a plant that grows around fields called Florida Pusley, they hammer that, blackberry bushes, kudzu if its green, small plants growing in a clear cut. Honey suckle. Just about anything green now is browse.Really too many to list. green briar. Ive seen them eating anything green growing in a pond too.

Life is too short to only hunt and fish on weekends!

If being a dumbass was fatal some of you would be on your death bed!

Honeysuckle, privet, smilax, strawberry bush, vetch, henbit. Several of those are not native, but naturalized. They're eating a lot of green stuff right now since it's still 65 freaking degrees.

Basically take a slow stroll around the woods and you will see what there eating on if you look closely .. As far as where to hunt Concentrate on edges .. Anytime you have a transition from one habitate to another is normally going to be a travel route .. Pines , to hardwoods, inside field edges .. Mature pine lot beside 5 year old pines .. Anytime you have a transition zone that creates an edge combine this with a terrain feature ridge a saddle , bench , a funnel and you have a good spot .

It can basically be anything within deer mouth range. Most have been covered in this thread. Green briar is huge. I did some scouting yesterday after my hunt and the amount of green briar that looked like it was clipped down with scissors was crazy. They'll even eat small twigs. Privet. It can be any tender/new growth of forest floor plants. Real easy for them deers to clip, eat, and move through travel areas. I hunt some thinned pines and by the end of January everything green that is within deer distance on the forest floor is gone pretty much.
