You folks that live or have a lease in western Anderson County, what's the acorn production look like this year? I'm gonna do a little bowhunting at the start of archery season. I've got a few spots scouted out but where I hunt will be dictated by how much acorn mast there is. I haven't been able to get up there in the last couple of months.

Thanks

I hunt the northwest corner of Houston County and haven't seen any acorns on the ground, but I have to admit I haven't been looking too hard. I am headed up there this weekend so I will take another look, but I know they are not as plentiful as they are in Conroe.

I live east of Fairfield and I cant find a acorn on any tree on my property. Even the sawtooth oaks did not make this year.

I didn't seen any significant amount of acorns in north or south Houston County yesterday. I did see a ton of persimmons though on our place and they are already falling.

Pretty sparse in Steetman.. 2/3 of ou lease is heavily timbered with oak trees but have found only a few with tiny acorns. We have lost a lot of oak trees as well. Each time I go to lease, i have to clear the trails of fallen trees or limbs. Unless we see a improvement in the acorns in the next month or so, I plan to keep corn feeder filled and use a road feeder for trails.

hardly any acorns are being produced near Cayuga. Should be a good year to hunt a corn feeder.
