The struggle is real when you live in the middle of the Shawnee National forest and have a super high density of not only deer, but rabbits, woodchucks, crows, and many other food plot eating critters! But I am not giving up just yet this year! Join us for a Friday night food plot update from Phil, coming at your from his 85 acre Southern Illinois farm. So, in his first corn & soybean planting, the corn got devoured by critters, but the soybeans held their own. So he tilled under the first corn food plot and replanted the entire thing. Today, we’ll get an update on everything after a couple of weeks since replanting the corn. Join us for the whole process to see what went right, what went wrong, the current steps Phil and I have taken, some great corn and soybean food plot chronological updates, and and up to the day update as of today to see where we stand! I also put out some ‘human fakes,’ including several machines and my tractor in the fields to try to at least slow the eating carnage of the corn and soybeans. Also I added 2 new utilization cages to better gauge what I already believe, as far as the devastating critter carnage! So, definitely hit the like button, subscribe and hit the bell icon to follow our 2022 spring food plots for deer, as well as all of our mini excavator projects, skid steer projects, tractor projects, our VRBO cabin build project, UTV trail riding projects, DIY rustic red cedar and barn wood projects and all of our Country living adventures! Thank you. Kapper Outdoors, living the dream, one acre at a time.

Way to go Phil…….
Pharmer Phil is gettin' after it!
Nice tractor.
Dog is getting big. Need more footage of him when you get a chance. Nice to watch him grow and learn his personality. Another nice video!
Well no matter how your plots turn out guys, no one can say that your not trying hard enough. Seems like you guys never get Mother Nature to help out at all. Plus the fact that your deer are very impatient LOL. Good luck and hope you get some gentle all day rains soon
Hate to say it, but I think Phil’s is bigger than Kaps…lol
His crops, get your mind outa the gutta 😎
You guys are great love the management.
Great update, Phil! Looking food
Nice work Phil…you definitely have a "Green Thumb" when it comes to food plotting. Fairly sure that Ole Kapper's thumb is stuck somewhere else. (I'm sure he'll disagree) lol
Great video 👍 things are lookin good in the plots 💪 regarding plantin plots with the intention of huntin deer 🦌 perhaps maybe worth a mention that when hunting season arrives it's not wholesale slaughter but careful management of the deer to ensure that the health of the deer herd is the best it can be going forwards 👌
Kapp so hard to get a food looking good year one.
My bean corn 🌽 planting look great in Ohio.
My friend was here yesterday and was like wow corn and beans in the same field.
Just love what you two are doing. It's awesome!!
Good stuff as far as replanting if you don't try you don't learn anything you will figure it out for yourself
Good update! Nice looking plots!
