My wife and i wanted to plant 2 acres of corn this year for us and our friends.We picked a spot in the middle of 5000 acres of field corn to be shure it would not be seen from the road.Guess what a large group of very hungry deer ate it all.But i guess after our crop is turned into fuel i can go to the store and buy corn to go with me deer steaks.DOC
