Acorns or apples. or any major food source in large abundance will affect deer movement. if you can get good food 50 yards from where you sleep why would you travel a mile? Everyone seems to be happy when there a lot of acorns but really the deer travel less the same is true for banner apple years. this year acorns are down here but apples are loaded. i have an abandoned apple orchard that is about 15 acres in size ...last year 3 trees had apples hunting was easy.. sit on one of the 3 apple trees and get a deer coming to eat!! this year the entire 15 acres is loaded..deer can enter and exit anywhere to eat!! I for one am not fond of banner mast years.. id rather scout and find a few producing trees that concentrate the deer feeding / movement.

I was gonna say is that a growth or a tick? If that's a tick that might be a record book tick!!!

I cropped the origional pic and made it my work desktop background. Now I can't focus at work on my work stuff! He'll definately motivate me get out of bed on those cold mornings when I'm tempted to curl back up next to momma and go back to sleep!

Guy's just remember more people get injured or die playing football every year. I could add more sports to the list but it would be too long. Hunting is much safer than just about any other sport. But just have one hunting accident and its on the News. Look at how many people die driving every year about 40,000 per year where is the outrage? Dave
