Do food plots work? You be the judge.

I mowed my food plot last tuesday and I have had about 800 pics since. The deer are hammering it. Most I counted in one pic is 10. Don't get me wrong we have plenty of deer around here but since it's highly tillable land you don't normally see this many deer hitting one food source this time of year since there are so many different choices for them. I have several big bucks but they're coming out alone and after dark for now. I'll post those pics tomorrow:D Just wanted to let you guys see what a well managed food plot can do.

In case you were wondering it's 1/2 chicory and clover w/ a little alfalfa. The other half is soybeans for late season.

It is 4.5 to 5 acres w/a 35 acre crop field next to it and about 130 acre crop field across the fence.
