Apples and Pears are magic. The apple crop is incredible this year in SE Ohio.. I will start putting a few apples around my cameras next week and I have not had a night in the last two years where I did not get deer on film wiping them out. I have also noticed that bucks who are not that impressed with corn.. can not pass up a pile of apples.
"...the deepest, most permanent features of all great moments outside are the names, faces, descriptions, and emotions. The antlers on the wall...well, they're just bones affixed to boards. But what they represent, however, is flesh and blood - fathers and sons, friends spending time with friends and the the seasons of life when the people we love were still with us. These old antlers on the wall...well, take a seat, my friend, and I'll tell you all about them." -Rev. Zeke Pipher
I know that this is kind of a stupid question.... but what kid of apples are you putting out.
well I found any apple is a good apple
I tend to pick up apples off the ground where ever I can get them, many folks in my area have them in there yard, and they get in the way of cutting the grass, so they ley me pick them for free
deer eat green apple as fast as red one's
they don't seem to care
i think pears are the best thing to get deer on a camera NOW, pears ar just getting ripe here,but apples are the BEST thing i oct/nov, hands down. pics dont lie....but now, bean fields are great, mrbb will tell you that, my parents farm/section is all corn so we have 3 plots of beans that total 5 ac, 2 weeks ago we stopped putting garlic on them ( to keep them out, while growing ) and they are hammering them, thats where are bucks seem to be, deer will walk across a clover plot to to get to soybeans......nice to start back chatting again with you wise hunters, or hunters!!!!
well bad news. I finally had some decent deer and a good amount of doe on my camera and the guy kicks me off of his property. the other guy that hunts the same woods i do decided that he was going to shoot a deer about 30 yds from the mans back porch. so he said hit the road. and he posted it. so looks like i got to start at square one.
well that sucks
any chance of asking the land ownr if maybe down the road he changes his mind, letting you back
never hurts to ask
and well at least there is still time to look, could be worse if it happened mid season
Good luck
