First shoot squirrels good eating Get a feeder trough and put short electric fence around it. Deer will step or jump over, squirrels will climb and get zapped

1) Fatten the squirrel with corn 2) harvest some top notch squirrel meat.
I have eaten it a lot of ways but fried squirrel (with white pepper) then covered and baked in cream of mushroom is one of my fav suppers and always will be.

I can't for the life of me understand why anyone would want to feed the deer other than to keep them from eating everything else you don't want them eating.
The last thing any sane person would do is try to attract deer to his property.
Its like planting dandelions, don't matter if you do or not they will come. For pics and only the pics !! Have to stop here in Ky from march to may . Can't be shooting no grain fed turky's

Get a piece of 8 in PVC pipe 6 ft long, bury 2 ft in ground standing up, fill with dirt to 10 in from top, fill the top with corm. Heck if you fill it with dirt won't hold 5 lb of corn. Coon empty it in 10 minutes

Neighbor got him . 12" brow tine . Net 165. Somewhere in upper 170s to 180 gross. 7 " deduction just between the brows After comparing note we figure he was regular traveling at lest five miles and crossing a highway during the run. I messed up by not hunting him myself. I didn't think he was but maybe 150 is until I'd already filled my tag. Boys were sick we didn't get him but it was a good lesson for them. Ps we named him Savell in honor of the legendary East Texas trophy hunter
