I’ll start feeding protein on a 7k acre lease I just got on around the middle of the month. We all have timed protein units. Idk what type of protein they are going to feed yet. I wanna know what y’all would recommend! What will benefit the deer the most to grow big horns and pack on the pounds! The lease is between brackettville and uvalde. Going to pick up my Krivomann feeder next week!! (I can’t wait!)

I’d get with lease mates and likely feed the same. Some people have had bad antler results mixing proteins in a herd. One memeber here saw it when using both DD and L&E I believe. Said when he took DD out of the equation they went back to normal.
Either woulda be a great choice alone in the herd though

^^^exactly what JamesL said^^^ they will eat it when they need it the most. we see a small decline in consumption when acorns hit the ground and again a small decline in NOVEMBER . Point is timed feeding not all the deer will have a chance to get it before it is all consumed before the next feeding time.
