Your neighbors probably have a bigger corn pile. Upgrade.

We've got tons of acorns around Ruston. During the day I usually have tons of birds on my feeders for a couple of hours in the morning, and a couple in the evening. Right now I'm seeing no more than two or three birds all day long.

Either someone killed your deer or they are eating something else. Also, please improve your grammar. OP was painful to decipher.

Acorns dropping + rifle season hunting pressure = less deer movement to feeders

I am in area 4 and the deer seem to be hitting the corn way more than rice bran. I have a stand in a oak bottom and didn't have near as many acorns as last year.

They went in a hole. They’ll be back.
