Default Re: Southeastern Summer Food Plots

Various clovers are really good, and usually will come back for following years. What they REALLY love is Iron/Clay Peas. If you have many deer, they will wipe them out before they have a chance to mature UNLESS you can keep them out for a while. I found the simpliest way to do that is to get the sweeping off the floor of your local barber shop. Sprinkle hair ever few yards around the edge of the plot and replenish after every rain. After the plant matures enough to start blooming stop putting out the hair and they will WHIP THEM OUT in short order. Before they are ate slap up, start redoing the hair to give it a chance to grow back and rotate to other plots, maybe opening 2 plots at the time.
