Velvet buck shoulder mounts look great....its that simple

My real concern is providing food for the deer coming out of the summer browse and packing on pounds for the colder months....without having to supplement with corn/protein.

Trying to go natural

If that's your main concern, plant blackberry(rubus) bushes if you don't have them growing naturally. And plant in covered areas. If you have rubus growing naturally, throw some 13-13-13 on it so it grows and spreads. It's the number 1 wintertime browse in the south for WTD. They will normally keep their leaves as long as long as they're not exposed to direct frost.

The acorns a good early/mid season source of food, but they can feed on the rubus late into and after deer season closes.
