Hey jb, that’s a lot of corn. You could make some shine with leftovers and turn a little profit.

I'm glad everyone gets to use it now,I was never opposed to it. It's early days though, wildlife adapt to everything,takes them a while, 3 years from now corn won't be nearly as potent for hunting purposes, except on the places were the hunters are disciplined enough not to shoot their deer near it.

Im going to make a prediction..corn will continue to make a difference...it will make more of an impact the more its used year after year...people who think its blasphemy will soften up to it...theyll use it...greenfields will still be planted...deer will still eat both....it will mold deer movement patterns long term and will be a when the corn gets put out thing an not where..alabama deer gonna still be skittish in places...some places theyll become even more lax...theyll come a point in time when folks will notice deer are being seen in the daylight more an more...generations of deer to come will eventually normalize corn with everyday life an when it hits the ground they gon come eat it..it may take 15 or 20 years..probly wont..feeders will eventually stop freakin out most deer that are freaked out by them at all..the almighty rifle crack could become an issue...laws will change limiting deer harvest in some way...i could be totally wrong....jeffrey epstein didnt kill himself rofl

Damn! You boys put out a lot of corn! 900lbs a week is 18 50lb bags! That is $130 a week! 20 weeks in the season. Almost $3k. Damn....just damn.


Hunting brings out the worst in people.

That, ladder stands, building shooting houses are my responsibility during the season and the others plant the soybeans and prep fields. I could feed 2 or 3 times that much if I wanted to they would eat it!

I am not using a ton of it like some. I have a couple of spinners in plots just to keep them interested but when I got up for my two week rut hunt I started spinning out a bucket in several locations including existing plots, along shooting lanes and in a couple of fallow plots.The response was quick and obvious. A fallow plot with little sign was literally covered in hoof prints and had scrapes in open field which I have never seen and same results most other places.I have ended up spending 15 of my 18 sits so far in one box because I am seeing for me an incredible number of deer.Historically my place has averaged seeing about 2.5-3.75 deer/sit during this period.This year and I am seeing around 10/sit this year. Had 17 in fields this afternoon. Prior to this year the most deer/sit ever for me was 12. I have seen between 12 and 19 on 8 sits. I have seen one very nice shooter who was to quick for me and passed two 3.5 year old 8-9 points.one which was munching corn in a green field at 3:00 in the afternoon. I have been extensively managing this place for years, have great winter plots, plant 8 ac of summer plots and I have never seen anything like it.

Not at my place. I started feeding corn from a spin feeder last year when GA made it legal. It runs every day, twice a day, and will continue to run. If I notice the corn building up, I reduce the run time, and if it's gone too quick, I increase the time.

I hunted South Alabama this week. My buddy uses directional feeders. Yesterday morning, there were 3 does eating before the corn stopped blowing out.

Like a fish feeder. They have an attachment to spray in a concentrated direction.


It be's that way sometimes.

My feeders will run deer off at times. Mine prefer sweet feed over corn anyway but it wont run through.

we have 55 gallon drums with a 2 inch hole cut in side for gravity feed on 4 greenfields those fields arent allowed to have does shot on them or anyting less than a 3.5 year old deer we literally see herds in them 4 out of 5 hunts all day long I just enjoy actually seeing them all this the deer go nocturnal talk is BS any deer will go nocturnal if you shoot at them as soon as they step on the field. ive also been experimenting and deer will not touch big and j if there is a pile of apple corn next to it. stuff is a waste of money. theyll also avoid your timed broadcast feeder to come eat at the buffet pile they dont like picking thru leaves and dirt when its piled up 200 yards away.
