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.
On our
land in Alabama we use Imperial Whitetail Clover,
Alfa-Rack and 30-06 Mineral and we have experienced more
deer activity year round as well as bigger antlers and
heavier deer. My Pope & Young buck was killed in Pike
Co., Illinois. The outfitter there also uses Imperial
Whitetail Clover. The buck grossed 142 Pope & Young.

The outdoors has always
had a strong attraction for Ray Scott even though he was technically a
“city kid” growing up in Montgomery, Alabama. As a child, he often
played hooky to fish, carrying his cane pole and cigar tin full of his
favorite lures or freshly dug worms. His love of fishing would
eventually lead him to found the Bass Anglers Sportsman Society (B.A.S.S.)
in 1968 which now claims over one-half million members. In the process,
Scott created a multi-billion dollar bass fishing industry and became
determined not only to protect and to preserve the fishing resource and
the environment, but to improve them as well.
