Deer Corn Prices
Where have you seen a good price on deer corn ? In Lubbock we are paying $5.99 for 40 lbs. and $7.99 for 50 lbs. Where is the cheaper corn ?

Good deal. I wonder if we could get enough of us together up here on the cap to go together and buy a large enough quantity at one of these feed stores to make it worth their time and lower the price. Especially in September. The Shopping Basket in Ballinger had corn for 5.75 for 50lbs. in October and November. I know there is a good buy out there somewhere. We would buy 3 tons ourselves.

corn prices will be on the way down shortly!!! Congress has maybe come to their senses about the ethenol situation, they are looking at the reasoning of burning up a food source in an automobile.

I'm down in Brownwood right now and was talking to a man earlier this evening at dinner. He said a small tornado touched down last night and went right through, if memory serves me correct, about 10,000 bushels of corn.

With a lot of the northerners switching to corn fueled stoves this corn may go higher. I read somewhere that if the heating oil remains as high as it is now, the sale of wood stoves and corn stoves would could triple in the fall.
paid 5.59 a 50# in Coleman
Where in Coleman did you get that corn. We have a cabin at lake coleman and will be there in 2 weeks. I would like to buy a ton over the phone and pick it up then.

I bought some at J&L in Cross Plains a couple of weekends ago. It was $6.75/50#. They told me that their COST was going up to $6.50/50#, so expect the price to continue to rise.
Paul, where did you get that corn in Coleman? Was it at the little feed store down the FM that is beside the Quick Stop?

$7.50 for a 50lb bag at ACCO in Abilene today. OUCH, Thats going to leave a mark.
Does anyone use the Golden Nuggets or Record Rack Protein pellets? GN's are now $11.25 a 50lb bag. The deer may have to start looking elsewhere for food.

Last month at the Jefferson feed store a 50lb sack was $7.45. as of yesterday, $8.95 a sack! Ive shut down all but one feeder, and its now running half time.
At the rate corn prices are going up, i'll be hunting over a can of corn this coming season!

GWBush just drove price up this morning at White House Briefing, Pushing for increasing alternative fuel methods. We hunters should fight to eliminate the idiot who came up with bio- fuel. Or start Planting corn crops on our entire leases!

corn nibblets never looked so good!
when i was a kid, an old timer used to tell me they'd take an old coke tray, and fill up the squares with them, so the deer could eat out of it but the cows could't.
might be worth a try

Re: Deer Corn Prices - 04/30/08 03:15 AM

It works, cows cannot get their tongue in the small hole to get the corn out like a deer can. Problem is the old coke cases will cost a bundle by themselves.

Re: Deer Corn Prices - 05/26/08 10:38 PM
9 dollars for a 50 lb bag yesterday.
I talked with one of my buddies who's a vendor for Walmart - he said that we could see 50 lb prices go up to $10.50 or so this year. Ridiculous.
On another note, I saw an interesting ad in Texas Trophy Hunters this month for a product called "The Kernel", which apparently brings in bucks with an electric call that mimics a deer feeder.
A product like this used to be sold in Walmart - anyone remember "The Feeder Repeater?"
Anyways, it sounds interesting. Their website is
www.thekernelsays.comAnyone used this product or the Feeder Repeater?
