Going to try something a bit different. I have one buck that's showed up here that I'm after and I'd really like to have a crack at him early in the season before all the neighbors get after him. Have worked up a 1/3 acre plot, tucked along a thick woods, where I'm going to plant beans two weeks before the bow season opens. Thinking they'll sprout with a flush of tender young growth, pull him in and give me a chance. Plot is set for the south winds we get early, with plenty of tall switchgrass around it I can hide in.
They planted everything around me in late beens a couple weeks ago, by September 6 I'm figuring they should be tall and course enough that the deer will want something more tender.
I don't normally fool with beans, as the combination of salt ground and plenty of deer means they never get over 3" tall or produce anything, but I should be able to get enough vegetation to make this work. Best laid plans and all, but hoping...
