Thread: Sweeten up “Spot X”

The “how can I shoot more deer” thread got me thinking -
If you have a nice spot somewhere and you would like it to produce more deer - invest in some sweet seed
Doesn’t matter if it is private or public land - likely you will be the only one to know where you planted it
I used to hunt up the back of Tokomaru in the 60s and old Henry who lived up there was always happy to tell us boys where he had burnt a slip or clearing and planted some “bush burn” - a poor man’s grass/clover mixture to get land producing after it had been roughly worked over
Those slips and clearings produced deer more consistently than others - deer are suckers for good quality tucker
I have planted rye and clover (red and white) on plenty of slips and clearings in my favourite spots over the years - it works
Good time of the year right now to grow seed - but don’t light fires
