Acorn Drop Reports

What has the acorn drop been like this year?

Starting to drop like crazy in Macon County

Plenty on the ground around my house and the water oaks are still loaded

White oaks everywhere around here, kinda hard to pinpoint one tree due to so many

Lots of acorns and some FAT deer

Lots of white oaks and chestnut oaks in the ground in Cherokee county

Thanks guys!

It's a down year for acorns.

Acorns everywhere. Walking through a little piece of property I hunt in wilsonville is like being on skates.

Hadn't started dropping yet on our place bullock

I've got em dropping at both my places.

A few White oaks here and there. Water oaks are dropping good.

White oaks along with every other oak tree dropping in conecuh county

I don't recall ever seeing more acorns. Tons and tons of red oak (late season) acorns. Food plot hunting in my area will be non productive. IMO, overall reports for this years deer season will be poor. Deer don't have to move when there's food under every tree. Abundant acorn years usually prevent "lucky" hunters from getting their opportunity. It will take season long scouting to stay atop of the acorn crop of the week. YMMV

Friday I had a 2 year old 8 pt under me all afternoon. He fed on white oak acorns for about an hour and then bedded down 20 yards in front of me. Layed there for 45 minuets, got up and fed some more. He was very healthy looking.

We've got so many acorns on the ground that it's nearly impossible to find a hot tree. Our fields are getting hammered though. Guess they still like some variety in their diet.

I have never seen so many acorns in my life in Linden Tn this weekend and just almost as many in North Alabama. Less in Tuscaloosa.

Black warrior yesterday... acorns everywhere I stepped. Although where I normally would see deer droppings there were almost none.

Another fine year, have a great crop of whites, reds, chinkapin and chestnut oak acorns on the ground. Something big gonna die!

We have acorns everywhere! Planted 1 plot for bow season and it is mowed down and beat up with tracks. I think the deer on our property are sick of acorns cause they are tearing up that green field. Every deer I have seen this year walks right by white oaks and other acorn trees to eat green stuff.

deer love some fresh tender green stuff in a newly emerged greenfield. They love acorns because of their high fat content since they are trying to fatten up to prepare for winter. They have to have green stuff for their digestive system to function, regardless of how many acorns they can find

They are on the ground in St. Clair county. You could hear it happen last weekend.

They are everywhere ,,have had better luck when they were limited

so many on my driveway now its turning yellow and brown from running over them

the acorn drop seems to be a bit later this year.

I have never seen so many acorns. I am living at a new (to me) farm up on the Mountain a few minutes from Noccalula falls. I ain't never seen anything like it.
