Acorns

Find the few trees that are dropping.
Hang a stand.
Get ready.

Fields Louisiana area dropping them like crazy. Haven't seen a deer in my area for two weeks because of them. They drop on the other side of the lease from me. Gives me time to build a hog fence.

my property has very few acorns this year. Last year was a bumper crop so it was to be expected.

Where in central Louisiana are you? I'm in Avoyelles and it felt like walking on marbles in the woods this past weekend.

Bumper crop here in NE Texas, been falling for over a month.

Lots in Tensas Parish. Watched deer all weekend eat acorns and never go to the feeder. By not going to feeder, never got in front of the camera. People that use cameras as there primary source of scouting are missing out on reality by not being in the woods. Probably saw 40 deer this weekend that never went in front of the cameras.

Seemed that way here in south Arkansas, but it's been raining acorns for the past few weeks. Late drop. I got a white oak in my front yard that makes heavy every year. Thought this year would be an exception, but I've collected 60+ lbs of acorns in the past 5 days and there's a ton more.

I've got four in the yard that all make well. We've been here 16 years and I didn't see an acorn until about 3 weeks ago. They are smaller than usual though. I collect them and use them when the acorns at the camp are gone, but this year it's the same there. Nothing until about 3 weeks ago, but especially the last two weeks.
