Natural Growing clover

[NYbuck50]

3 different places i hunt, miles apart and all the deer are neglecting the corn for naturally growing clover. This is kind of a PITA to hunt because this stuff is everywhere. You guys seeing this in other parts of the state

Corn doesn't seem to draw as much until mid-October on average in my experience. They'll eat it sure, but this is the time of plenty - hard and soft mast as well as green sources.

Amen to that, its kinda of the catch 22 to the earlier season. I'll take it over not hunting though. im going out after work again tonight, maybe in shorts

Locally, I'm finding the white oak acorns are getting browse pressure.

 

Also, lots of berry trees/bushes.

 

Watched several deer last night. All ate the berries and acorns. One ate berries and then onto the green field.

Nocturnal feeding habits because of the mild weather here. Almost in a summer pattern, except with fruit and nuts on the ground. They seem to be off the clover right now. Their feeding in the radish heavy. Been hunting the fruit trees, but the yield is some of the best ever on all the wild apples. Hard to pick which tree the deer will feed on at specific times.
