Whitetail have historically been pretty receptive to humans.
Grandpa would shake a can of corn and bring them up so the kiddos could feed them. He was always scared that a buck was going to raise it's head and poke someone's eye out. There always seem to be a few deer in the herd that just aren't bothered by people.

I found that if every time you go you should to spread a little corn. This is year round, try to always use the same vehicle. After awhile they see the vehicle and recognize it as the feeder truck. You don't have to feed a lot in the off season, just a little to keep the habit up.

The old man used to have a place at possum kingdom. He always kept a bag of corn and a plastic cup in the shed. Fill cup 3/4 full and go outside and shake it for 10-15 seconds. Within about 1 minute there would be a dozen deer. Some would eat right out of your hand.

With 2 bum legs, and blind in one eye, and I am on the road alone, everybody is in big trouble.

We road corn every single time we go to the stands, and I road corn the guys area a couple of days before they come. We have road feeders on every vehicle here. 20 years of doing it and the deer expect it. This is where I was sitting this afternoon.

Dang Stompy I bet there is Zero problem filling your freezer up

Use to fish down at Koon Kreek Kountry club a long time ago Joe who owned a house there would get his coffee can with corn in it rattle it around and whistle and the deer both bucks and doe would come running, some of the bucks were big!

Hand corning a road is Easy! I put in about half of a 1/2 gallon piture with corn, drive the road on the backside of my food plot steering with my right hand while pouring it out with my left hand out the window, doesn’t get any easier than that without a tailgate ceeder up

When yall started hand throwing or using a tailgate/trucker thrower, how long did it take for deer to start hitting the corn?

I think the sound of corn flying out of a tailgate feeder helps with the attraction. When they here it, they come running.

I only hand corn now. Hand corn at 2pm, then jump in the blind. They're there by 4pm. It's amazing how quick they find it.
