My thoughts are that there’s plenty for deer to eat in the spring and summer.
After keeping a few protein feeders going feb-oct two years in a row, I generally agree which is why I’m not doing it anymore. That said, the deer absolutely destroyed those feeders in two instances; post season when it’s still cold and nothing has greened up, and in late summer when it hasn’t rained in over a week. If it rained they let the protein sit, if the browse dried out they would empty a 350lb feeder in days. For post season I made sure to hit the winter plots with fertilizer before leaving, and cams showed they used them. My goal now is just to have something drought tolerant on the ground for those July and August dry spells, and keep body weight consistent.

I’m with you. Jan-Feb and August are touch. I’d say my research found that August is most critical for mother doe and fawns.
And I’m trying to get my soil ready for when CWD outlaws feeding.
Well it looks like my rain dance had the opposite effect. No rain in sight. FML
