I’ve had cotton seed out in Robertson county going on a year. No deer touch it. Put a bale of alfalfa out and it turned to mold. Never touched it. In Kerrville when I put a bale out it was covered up in deer then the axis would hit it at night. And yes, TP&W private lands biologist was totally free and one heck of a guy at that.

Doe factory - This is a good read on that particular problem. Doe groups have very tight home ranges, and can push mature bucks out of that area during the daytime.
When are you shooting your doe?

Will not be shooting any bucks this year. Does only. Possibly in bow season if I can put on my big boy pants and take the heat. At 66 it’s getting harder on me. So probably November 6th. I rattled in a 4.5 year old opening day last year that was 125 maybe. I think a person will be hard pressed to find even a 135-140 in Robertson county. Least where I am.

You want to get real crazy. Look up what give you more male offspring vs female offspring... protein vs carbs.
