I have enclosed a picture of a buck I killed on one of my properties in middle Georgia this year. He has 14 scorable points with a 26-inch inside spread. He weighed 268 pounds and was aged at 4-1/2 years old. We grossed scored him somewhere around 176 inches green score. The year before I also killed a 147-inch typical on a patch that was planted in Fusion.
I see 10 to 15 deer per trip. I have been planting Imperial Whitetail Clover for about eight years now and it is one of the best tools I have found for attracting and holding big deer on my property. Some of the tracks of land I hunt are only a couple hundred acres so I have to plant and supplemental feed year around to hold the deer on my property. I have done some testing of my own with rye, oats, wheat and several other plantings and have found that the deer seem to walk through these plots to get to the Imperial Clover and Alfa-Rack plots. They keep it eaten down very low but graze it all year long. Since I started using Whitetail Institute products I see a lot bigger and more mature deer than ever before. People ask me all the time how I kill big deer year after year and I tell them “Just lucky I guess,” but I firmly believe without these plots and supplemental feeding the deer simply wouldn’t be there. By the way the turkeys love it too.
Thanks Whitetail Institute for a great product and my best buck yet.
