Hey guy's,new on this forum but I do not own property but have a chance at doing a couple thing's with the landowner and need some advice/help.
We have gotten the ok from the landowner to pay him the going rate on bean's and he would be willing to leave some.I'm not sure about doing the same with corn,we are going to ask him about that soon but here's my question,if we have an opportunity to do either one what would be the better choice and how much should we try to get him to leave?This would be mainly used for shotgun and late muzzleloader hunt's on private property with little or no other hunting pressure at all.the farm is around 180 acre's and is surrounded by hardwood timber off of a major river in central Iowa.
The deer we took this year seem to be focused on the picked bean fields from 2nd shotgun when my buddy took his buck until I took a second doe off of the property Jan.9th in the same field the buck was shot.Is that weird that they bypassed the corn stock's to feed in the picked bean's?Do deer even eat soybean's or were they feeding on the straw part of it left behind at harvest?
