I will get some pics up shortly of the Deer that was on the outfitter's choice last week during the opening week of firearm season. The stuff is still green and works from spring til November. It has chicory, Jumbo Ladino Clover and Kopu 2. Great mix and I am working on getting smaller bags for people that don't need 25 lbs. Will have more info soon.

Here is the same plot in the same week with lower light and you can see how green it still is. I wish I had some pics of what I planted behind the cabin. The plot is alot bigger than this one and is loaded every morning and afternoon with deer eating on it. Will try to get some pics since I am not out in the woods hunting now. The stuff is still green also

That rye is only good for a month or so in the fall. I would plant at least 1 foodplot or More...... in the Spring. You need something to hold them in your area during the spring & summer months and get them used to bedding in those areas. Plus it is good nutrition for a healthier deer herd. I would plant the Outfitter's choice I have (which I prefer because of the ingredients) or if you don't want that get something that has Ladino Clover in it. This will last for 4 yrs or better and produce food all the way into November.
*and you could plant a fall plot that will have the rape turnip and brassica's etc. Outfitter's Choice has a blend I will have shortly for the fall months also. Will give you the info on that soon. You have some time now and need to think which areas you are going to plant for sure and how much seed you will need.

If you are going to just plant that 20 acre spot (which is ALOT) ...I would mix it up and break it up etc
