You gotta plant more than the deer can eat!!. I'd really like to find a decent but Safe place to hunt? Last time I went was 2012 or 2013 and got shot by an idiot who owes his life to his girlfriend/ wife who cried begging for me not to hurt him.I don't know how you do it. Deer strip every leaf off of them when they are 2 inches high at my place. They never make it.

I’ve been looking for another place to build a dove field for a couple years now. One that I can basically set aside for strictly late season field or one that I could prepare and sell spots for opening weekend. The problem with dove fields as most know is location, location, location. Can’t just pick a random four acres in a set of bottoms with no power lines and expect to have a good shoot...You gotta plant more than the deer can eat!!.

I promise you, you can't plant enough for any of them to get to maturity at my place. Nor can you keep them out. Other traditional dove crops sure, but not sunflowers. It's like crack to those deer. I could plant 3 acres of of 100 different things and ONE sunflower in the middle and they'll get that one.havent had a huge problem with predation on the sunflowers. Doesn’t hurt to keep an eye on them late in the evening just before dark the first two weeks after emergence. If you keep the deer beat back until they get about 12 inches tall you can’t let’em roll. Deer will still munch on them but not enough to cause legit crop failure.
