It can be. For me it's simply a tool to keep deer on the farm and hopefully get then a few years older. I did the math today and I am averaging 900lbs per week on 1500 acres. I am about to cut that in half for the next 2 months

I had no clue because I followed the rules. In retrospect, as the song goes “I shoulda been an outlaw”.Stuffs amazing Just curious, how did it make a difference for you this year? I’m not disagreeing, but just wondering if it was sightings, kills, etc?

I’m not disagreeing, but just wondering if it was sightings, kills, etc? Im seeing at least twice as many deer, have not killed one but ive seen several that were bigger than 2/3 of the bucks in the pictures posted on here, could have killed them but im waiting on a partiicular deer or another really good deer.

It made a difference on the 12-acre home place. I’ve watched deer nearly every sit, which has been really nice. And I fed corn previously 100 yards and out of sight. I do believe we had a bumper crop of deer plus the new corn rule.
“Killing tomorrow’s trophies today.”
On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

I haven’t seen any difference as far as sightings. Only change I have seen is the amount of fat in the deer when cleaned.

The only difference I've noticed is the amount of roadside trash. I cant imagine how some people are spending hundreds of dollars a week on corn. Ya'll obviously got money to burn. The coons and crows are loving it. And, I appreciate you feeding the turkeys for me.
My opinions and comments are my own. They do not reflect the position or political opinions of Aldeer or any of the Aldeer administration.

And where are all the 140 class and 150 class bucks that corn was going to magically produce for the state's deer hunters???
