Sounds pretty solid to me! Just get 'em in the dirt, somewhere nice and accessible for you where you can fix up a blind and you'll be good to go. Remember that when the leaves fall that there will be a lot more visibility for both the eye and the nose so check out predominate wind directions, escape routes, water locations and look for old rubs, scrapes, droppings, and bedding locations. Good luck partner.

My onliest suggestion now would be not to mix them up to much so you can see what they really prefer. Keep it segregated, to find what you ought to focus on planting next season.
Best of luck!

They sure are sniffing around my downed peach tree. Wonder if it wasn't the smell of the fresh split wood cause they aren't eatin peaches just walking all over them. Toby, can you guys grow like tomatoes and corn down there all year round? Up here they will mess up a tomato patch in a heart beat and we all know what they think of corn. Corn here has gone from seven dollars to over fourteen a hundred in the past year. Too high for baiting, back to sugar, salt and apples.

"Corn here has gone from seven dollars to over fourteen a hundred in the past year." I'll gladly pay fourteen per hudred! I been laying out twelve dollars per fifty pound sacks of cracked corn to feed my hogs. Makes for damn expensive pork chops!
