I have heard that the green jeans have been up in the air looking for those yellow acorns and writing tickets accordingly.

i imagine there is some truth to that

I lot more than some truth !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With all the foliage around I don't know how he could see it unless it was in a huge pile in a field.

Another reason to spread it, instead of piling it up!!

GOD help me if I ever start deer hunting over corn. I would just as soon have a sister in a whore house as be that weak.

Golden acorns are a good replacement for no acorns.

I can tell you that is false. The MDWFP buget is so low, the officers get cut from driving trucks right after January because they do not have enough money for gas. They are not going to waste funds to put a plane in the air so they can write a corn ticket. The ticket only cost between 25.00 and 100.00 dollars and all the money goes to the county general fund where the ticket was written, it does not go back to the department.

I suspect you are correct. I've always thought that it might be the MDWFP that started these rumors themselves. After all, fear is a pretty good deterrant.

My thoughts exactly. It's bad enough that we have a rifle season....

Actually, the ticket costs $199 according to a real reliable source, because he had to pay it.

Still, $ 199 for a 150 class deer, worth every penny. Not to me, but others I'm sure.

Keep thinking they are not in the air looking for corn piles. When they was in the air before dove season, they was noting all the corn piles. I will say this, there are some brave people that put the corn piles out in the middle of a field (brave or just stupid).

I laugh when I hear the stories of the GW's in my area of what they have been seeing for the air.

why not allow a little corn if the deer herd is out of whack. it is one way to get the old doe nannies up under your tree. Pouring a little corn on the ground and feeding with large feeders which conjigate deer unnaturally are two different things. Spreading a little corn (not 100 pounds, I'm saying a couple pounds) under an oak tree is no different than a deer feeding on acorns. They will feed and move on, thus not spreading any diseases if any are present. Food plots cause deer to flock together which can spread disease, which will come anyway if we dont thin down the herds.

it is also time to be looking for wacky-weed.. they don't call it a harvest moon for nothing....
