The rape / turnips mixture I put down in August is coming along nicely. Here's an example of what I found today. The deer are hitting the rape quite a bit, as I see a lot of tracks. Once the frost hits, they'll be on it more as it sweetens. Let's go hunting!
Note-contrary to what most vendors and feed stores tell you, now is not the time to put down minerals. Deer mineral use is heaviest March-Oct. They will use it Oct-Mar, but far less. Antlers are 50% protein, 50% minerals. By now they're already formed.
