This past spring, I purchased a 5-foot tiller and with help from my dad and his tractor, what was once a day dream had finally become a reality. I purchased a bag of Imperial Whitetail Clover and a bag of Fusion, and after a long day in the field we had finished two Whitetail Institute food plots.
June and July provided plenty of rain for the plots and it wasn’t long before the plots were up and growing. My area of southeastern Ohio was suffering from drought conditions in August and September but the plots showed very little signs of stress from this. With the season starting in late September, I started checking trail cam pics, and I’ll have to admit I was a little discouraged. All I had was plots full of does and a few small bucks. But as we all know, come November, if you hold the does, the bucks will soon be there also. Even with all the neighboring bean fields, the deer were keying into my Whitetail Institute plots. I was fortunate enough to harvest this Ohio brute on Nov. 10. He green scored 170-1/8 inches gross. As you can tell, I’m a believer in Whitetail Institute products.
