Dedicated to the Development of Top Quality Whitetail Through Improved
Deer Management and Better Nutrition
History Of The Whitetail Institute
For years,
well-known fisherman and avid deer hunter Ray Scott was on the
trail of the best forage planting for his deer herd west of
Montgomery, Alabama. But every time he asked a fellow hunter, or
a university wildlife biologist or seed specialist, he got a
different answer. Some swore by oats, some wheat, and some rye.
In the fall of
1986 a friend recommended that Scott try some clover in his
testing.
Clint Tegtmeier – Kansas Here in Northeast Kansas and
southeast Nebraska we have a lot of deer. I started
using 30-06 minerals with the idea of helping my young
bucks mature into larger bucks by their 4th or 5th year.
But in less than 2 years I think it has helped improve
the size of the older bucks. After one year we harvested
an 11 point, 172 inch buck.
Then the next fall we
took a 12-point, 181-inch drop tine buck (see photo). I
have seen 2 other bucks that would score in the 180
range. Thank you for a great product, 30-06 mineral.
