That’s awesome. I want to do that with the property I bought three years ago but there’s no water on it yet. Costs around $30k to have a well drilled and I don’t want to haul that much water so it’ll have to wait a few years.

If I was going to have a food plot it would have some sainfoin planted in it. You would plant it once and never have to mess with it for years. Deer love it here.

3_4 weeks to early for rye.
I hope you fertilized it. ? I've made every mi$take in the book planting plots for 20 years. Jumping the gun (timing) and not fertilizing are 2 common mistakes.
Nice looking spot though.
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

Rye will do ok planted now in the north if your daytime temps have moderated into the 60s or 70s. If yall get a warm stretch with temps into the 90s for several days/weeks...not so much.
Also..by planting rye this early it will be stemmed and tougher by best part of deer season.
