Ok, please lets keep it civil. This is not a debate and those holly than thou guys can just move along.
On my hunting property I like to keep one stand baited with corn just in case I have a guest or a child to take. I just started hunting the property I am on last season and the deer just were not all that interested in the corn. I actually had corn go sour. I have a decent population and tried the corn in different locations with the same disappointing results. I have taken into account natural forage at the time of year, the acorn factor, different vendors of the corn and the other elements that usually effect corn utilization. What am I missing? Has anyone ever had deer not eat corn? Let me rephrase they eat it but don't utilize it on any regular basis. Cameras at both the feed sites and in general vicinity show deer in the area but butkas on the pile/spread.
