Kevo72 Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 How much does it affect the deer after a farmer takes the corn off? I was in my climber just hanging out when a combine went strolling by taking the corn down. One thing for sure is it was easier to walk back to the truck!

Kevo72 Posted September 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 cornfields I can't do much til Saturday. Season isn't in til then! But there has been activity around the stand and the blind. They have primarily been movin about 2 to 3 rows in going from point to point. I was figuring they would move their bedding area from the corn to the wood line near my stand which might be what they are doing. This is my first time hunting a cornfield.

dbHunterNY Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 seems that combined corn gets picked over more so than chopped corn. when chopped there just isn't much of anything left or spilled to the ground. a combine is like a dinner bell for deer though. I've seen deer work down a field behind one then scatter once it catches up and comes back around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Nothing like a cut corn field....deer love em.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowmadness2186 Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Deer around here flock to the fields after the corn has been cut. also helps if you can get the farmer to leave a few strips of corn up for that late dec hunt when food is hard to find.
