Rolled past one of my bow hunt spots today and noted that farmer adjacent has planted corn this year. Last year it was soybeans.

Got me to thinkng which would give me more deer sightings? The beans seem to draw deer early, but seem to draw deer less and less after harvest. Corn does not draw the deer really early, but seems to hold deer through the length of our long season.

Despite the attraction of lots of deer early, I'm thinking for the long run, the corn may draw and hold more deer.

Which would you rather hunt near, for a 100 day + season, beans or corn?

Geez, and its only June!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
