I hunt just west of Jacksborro, so not too far off from you. It is the same way for us. I have a trail I dumped corn on two weeks ago and it still has some left.

I hunt just outside of bryson which is between Graham and Jacksboro. We have tons of acorns, they havent been hitting the feeders. The only way I have seen any deer is by sitting where they are traveling. So if you can figure out where that is you should be alright. I shot a pretty nice 8 point the day before Thanksgiving nowhere near a feeder.

I have 5 or 6 different places around Graham, Jacksboro, Bryson, and Markley, same story up until this week. They started to hit the corn a little over the last two days and the acorns seem to be rotting a little. Most of them finally fell in the last week and the ones on the ground are starting to turn black. I havent hunted a feeder this year and they arent coming to the food plots either, so we just sit where we can see the most ground and have killed plenty of deer.

I hunt in the north west part of young. I'm seeing plenty of deer,but no shooter bucks. I see deer every time out to the blind. or 6 doe's and a couple of small bucks. They are hitting the feeders morning and evening.
