How To Create The PERFECT Food Plot

Published 2018-08-22
Just because your food plot is pretty and green, doesn't necessarily mean that it is the perfect food plot. Is your food plot actually even helping the local deer herd? The value of the food plots that you offer has very little to do with with what you plant and a whole lot more to do with when you plant.

  • Well I’ve been following you teachings for a while ! Just got 600 acres in the heart of the Adirondacks. This is gonna be one big learning curve
  • @randydunmire
    I just started planting food plots a couple years ago and I am learning so much by watching your food plot videos. Thank you Jeff for all your helpful videos.
  • @notinacorner592
    No one explains habitat management like Jeff! Can't thank you enough for your advice! And by the way those drone shots are awesome!!
  • I am a new-ish hunter and I don't do food plots (Yet. Still learning the ropes) but I just wanted to say thank you so much for all of the knowledge and great content on this channel and on your website. Every video and article I have viewed has been informative, clear and in depth. I haven't had anyone to learn hunting strategies and techniques from and you have helped me a great deal with figuring out deer behavior, patterns and the general ins and outs of deer hunting. I can't wait for the season to start!

    I have cash crop all around me. This video was extremely helpful not to mention saved me a pile of money. I think I just need to do brasca plots.
  • @KingJonXVII
    I love your videos, although I would love to see your take on southern states.
  • @kvandy1340
    Good common sense food plot information! Thanks!
  • Great video. Great info all makes alot of sense. We have a parcel that after November theres NO food on it mostly all phrag so we r puttin as much green as possible in now.
  • @ericfloyd9842
    Jeff, your videos are excellent! They have changed a lot of my thinking about food plots, especially what's in them and when to plant them. How about advice or a video for food plot strategies in the southeast...North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia? I assume the plantings would be different especially the timing. Keep up the good work!

    Very informative video. I've always been into fertilizing oak trees, Any info on this would be greatly appreciated. Always looking 4wrd to that next video to go up. Thanks again.
  • @alaskamike3577
    Thanks Jeff. The most in-depth explanation I have heard yet. I failed with my spring food plots (planted too late with poor germination {drought} but I changed tactics with my fall plots (Turnips & Oats) and am holding deer really well now in December.
  • @bedwards733
    Makes a lot of sense to me. What about big woods ?
