Our place is 16 acres and fortunately our state allows us to feed deer.We could only get to our stand sight via a ridge road that runs Right in the middle of the property So,,I start conditioning the deer to my electric golf cart by taking food,,corn,, fruit and mineral by hauling them plenty to eat daily around lunch time.Our blind is always there along with a water bowl(large one)..We also keep cameras running so we can see what's coming in.When wind direction is right for the blind and deer are coming in,,I do everything the same with one minor change,, I leave my wife in her very comfortable chair in the blind and I drive the buggy back to the house.5 mature buck in 5 years proves it can be done.
