Gunnleg. Pumpkins have been my # 1 foodplots for years.
Especially for late season.
They devour them!

They eat all varieties I've tried but seem to prefer the smaller sugar pie ones the best.
Easy/ cheap to grow. They do need a fair bit of moisture to do real well though.
Here are my 2 plots this year. Deer have eaten about 1/2 of what was there.

And yeah, that's another rubbing pole in the one pic. 24 yards from my deck.

Attach the pics!

The green (1st pic) was brassicas. They are about gone now. 2 weeks ago they were 2' high.
Brown stuff is soybean chaff that blew in off the field during a 60mph blow.

Try punching in pumpkin food plot in the search bar. I believe I've done a tutorial on how I do them.
If that don't work, I'll go through it all again. Just ask.

I plant around Labor Day in Va to take advantage of mid Oct - Nov.

How far ahead are you getting these in (60 days, 90 days…?).

Mixing anything in? Cereal Rye, wheat?

I try to have mine in around June 10th.

Gotcha. Appreciate it

Last evening, deer galore.
This evening, dead sea.

I have my 5000 sugar pie seeds ...didn't plant this year

Not even 1 day to harvest a doe during rifle season this year..in NH

Ness, is the population in NH that light? We can't kill enough does around here.

That young 5x5 walked through the back yard abit ago.
He's now at the rub tree.

And now the bully 4x4.

Any deer you get here is a friggin Trophy.

I've logged many 80 hours seasons....and nevah fired my gun

Sorry to hear that. It's not uncommon to see 3-6 different bucks a day here. Does are almost always a given. I used to keep stats on my hunts and my kids' hunts. Believe that we carried around >80% success rate on having deer in range on hunts.

I see a lot of back and forth about 'deer management' on here. We're simply able to pass on a lot of deer due to density of deer.

I can't fathom that.

Little guy .

Bucks are moving early today.

BNB, fathom what?

High deer densities or number of bucks? Your posted pics seem to indicate that you have the same densities.

That's Too bad Ness

Oohps, sorry GL. That was meant for NessMuck.

Any new pics?
