Food Plots Can Really Payoff!
There has been much written about the benefit of food plots especially when it comes to the health of the deer herd. Most probably don't realize how quickly you can realize the payoff. The picture below is of a turnip that came from one of the five food plots that we have on a relative small piece of land. After only one year we have establishing healthy food plots that have dramatically effected the patterns, number, and quality of the bucks on the property. All of our food plots have been planted with a seed mix consisting of turnips, whitetail clover, and rape. This mix has produced some quality bucks in a relatively short period of time. At this point I can't wait to see what the following years will produce. Now if I can only figure out how to shoot straight I would have tagged at least one of the three wall-hanger 8 pointers that I missed this year
