Beef Bank for Deer!

Dear sir,

I'm writing to let you know how very pleased I am with the Beef Bank I purchased...I am a very active deer hunter and plotter...I have been trying for over 4 years to find something that would grow on my woodlot trails and attract wild life. After much searching I found Sucraseed and opted on the beef bank....all I can say is wow...and that is what has been said on all the hunting chat rooms I have posted pics on....I planted in March and have mowed twice all ready...attached are pics I've taken and posted on the internet...You've made this ole gal very happy and I will be planting much bigger areas in your seed ...starting with the goats pasture next spring.

I planted soy beans this year in two different places a week apart...The first area I planted Beef Bank in the shady part of the plot before putting in the beans. I then went and planted the other bean plot 300yrds away....the second plot has been hit hard by the deer...many tiny bare stems left...the plot with the Beef Bank...has many deer prints and a little damage but the prints mainly come in from the Sucraseed and traverse across the field...I believe they are browsing the Beef Bank first which is taking their interest off my beans...Yet again THANK YOU!

Year Old Northern Sweet Spot Plot Impressing

May 14, 2010

I walked thru some Northern Sweet Spot planted a year ago in the spring...wow! The clovers were knee high and it was full of deer beds! 

It needs to be clipped of course but we have had 12" of rain here since the first of May so it will have to wait a bit.

The clovers in this mix are beautiful and the Birdsfoot Trefoil was blooming already.

The Buck Stops Here

October 28, 2009

This is the first year that I tried sweet spot for my food plots and its been unreal, actual case this weekend my son killed a 140" deer chasing a doe in the rut but crossed a plot and stopped to grab a snack! Now I'm interested in sowing in my pasture as well.

Georgia Pro Staffer Impressed with Southern Sweet Spot

 

October 24, 2009

I just inspected the 3/4 acre plot in the back part of the property that we planted in the Southern Sweet Spot mixture this year. It looks like a page out of a food plot magazine. It started slow, I am assuming due to the incredible amount of rain and lack of sunshine we had in September, but has come on STRONG the past two weeks. There are quite a number of deer tracks on the road leading to the plot. It was just too wet to get out in it, but I could see sign of deer usage along the edge--especially on the radishes. Deer usage of them is fairly obvious. I put 133 lb/ac of 19-19-19 on it last weekend and that has really intensified the "green". So far it is very impressive.

IT TAKES A LOT TO IMPRESS ME

October 24, 2009

"Ryegrass is something I have always been vehemently against but this High Sugar Grass Perennial ryegrass mix has been very different.  Based on what I have seen so far I would not put them in the same category.  I moved my camera a little to get better pics of deer feeding on the Sweet Spot mix.  It's a fairly small test plot in a tree planting sandwiched between switchgrass and shrubs, and right next to all kinds of other food sources.  I was surprised to get dozens of pics of deer standing there feeding, including a buck who stood there eating for 15 minutes!  It takes a lot to impress me, but so far I'm kinda liking this mix."

I can't wait until November!

My family and I hunt in the big woods of northern Michigan, we have always had trouble finding a seed mix that would grow in sandy soil and tolerate the shade in a wooded environment.  This spring we planted Sweet Spot in several of our hunting plots and boy, did it grow!  The picture is a 1/4 mile long food plot we planted on an old road that winds through our property.  This picture was taken 4 weeks after planting and it looks even better now.  The trail cam we set up over this plot showed deer and bear using the plot on a regular basis, the plot is so lush now you can see the path the deer take while feeding.  I can't wait until November!

Southern Sweet Spot A Hit!

September 26, 2009

Just went to a client's property this morning outside Rome, GA who had some incredible looking Sweet Spot plots after just 3 weeks. I didn't expect it to look so good after only 3 weeks. Interestingly the deer are already eating on the radishes in the mix. Those radishes really appear to be a great tasting forage for the deer. They are of course hammering the High Sugar Grasses in the mix. This is the best small plot mix that I've come across.

"I've had some good growth this spring with the Sweet Spot I planted last fall, despite some soil deficiencies. I'm enjoying the diversity of wildlife using the plot as you can see in the pics from the trailcam." - Dan K, Southern Oregon

Virginia Sweet Spot Success

 May 12, 2009

This is the second year that I have planted Sweet Spot food plots. Last year I planted 1.5 acres in the fall and I now have a nice stand of clover, turnips and rye this spring. I planted additional plots this spring for a total of 2.5 acres. The plot in the pictures was planted on March 23 and the turkeys and deer are already using them. I am looking forward to bow season already!!

Spring 2009 Turkey

 April 15, 2009

While some folks were out protesting their taxes, Pro Staffer Brent Parrish was droppin' the hammer on this Southeast Iowa Long Beard.  "The turkeys were in the Sweet Spot last Fall during deer season and they were still there this Spring." says Parrish.  "The first group of turkeys I watched coming in off the roost ran off when a group of does feeding in the Sweet Spot Plot busted me in my blind.  About an hour later this 2 year old bird wasn't as lucky."

He weighed in at 27.2 lbs and had a 10 1/8" beard and 7/8 spurs.
