ya im on facebook, whats your name ill friend request you

ill guess ill keep my corn on after the season and turn it down. ill keep my camera on it and if there are no deer coming to it ill turn it off. although if there are hogs coming to it, ill keep it on and hunt it. we dont have many hogs at our place (yet) but i know theyre there. if i can get them coming to the feeder they will be easier to shoot

We used to feed various brands of 20% protein pellets. We have fed Purina, Full o Pep and Coop brands of deer pellets. I met a person that lives in my area and he raises axis, fallow and white tail deer. I actually met him at our local Coop. He invited me and my son to come to his ranch and lok at his deer. While we were there he was feeding all he feeds is 14% calf creep small pellets. I asked him about his choice of feeds. He told me that deer in tip top shape can only digest a maximum of 20% protein. Free range deer are rarely if ever in tip top shape to digest the maximum 20%. I have since switched to the 14% calf creep in my protein feeders I have not noticed a difference in antler production on the deer at my lease. My lease is not in a prime location for high scoring B&C deer. I have been on this lease for 15 years, for the 1st 5 to 6 years we had very few decent bucks. Even allowing the deer to age the antlers didn't produce much improvement. Once we started providing the protein within 2 years we started seeing progress. We still do not have the large trophies we would like but I believe the genetics are holding us back. 3 years ago we changed to the calf creep and the antler growth has not dropped off. We hunt on about 450 acres with very little hunting pressure around us. We have 3 large ranches that surround us and 1 is high fenced the other 2 do not allow hunting period. The calf creep helps and cost about .50 a bag more than shelled corn.

your lease isn't high fenced? where is it?
