willis smith Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 i have a deer stand in a swamp in georetown , sc and i have a good bit of does in the area and it is around 76 to 85 degrees up there now and they aren't movin around alot. when i usually put out corn its is gone in days but i put my last bag out and it has been untouched for a week. does this mean it needs to get colder so they are moving around more or the deer have left the area. also it is only buck season up where i am and i was wonderin what to do to get bucks to the area of my stand. and i have seen a lot of hog tracks earlier this summer and was wondering how do i get them to start comin back to my stand and feeding.

Casey Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 I'd say the hogs and racoons are getting it before the deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybear Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Got a buddy that guides down your way in SC. He would speak of this very thing happening about this time of year when the acorns started dropping. Hard for me to guess from way up here, but I'd say they found themselves a preffered food source and will return after they polish it off.

92xj Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 where in georgetown? All my family is from there, and I pretty much grew up in the area. Will be back down there for a week over christmas duck and deer hunting on the black river and down in Santee. As far as the corn and deer down in Georgetown, I have had deer eat out of out piles/feeders all year long down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom2008 Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 I would have to agree with him on this. Agreed, but what is corning for deer? Some kind of hobby of yours? Is it a game???? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willis smith Posted September 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Yea i do it for fun. What do you think i am gettin ready for the fall deer season to get them in a late afternoon eating habit. It is also way to hot to hunt right now with the mosquitos and the heat. Buck season just started a week ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Corning sounds violent. When I first read your thread topic, I thought you were going to hit deer with the corn. Like what some kids do with people's cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikewink Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Is Corning for deer simular to Pining for deer??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like what some kids do with people's cars. Lol that how we do it down here. I load my slingshot up with a single kernal of corn and shoot it right into the deer's mouth. They don't know where it came from but they're sure happy to get it :pacman: Back to the question. We have the same problem where we hunt. Once apples start falling off the trees they couldn't care less about corn, and the same with acorns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
