The deer and the bees

 It is the middle of August and the deer hunters are on the prowl.  We all think it is one of the best times of the year.  All of the hunters are in good moods and looking around for the newest and the best deer plot mix and attractants.
 
This is the first season that we have the deer protein tubs.  I guess the manufacturers have decided that if it works for cattle it should do a great job for the deer.  We have stocked 3 different tubs, Sweetlix, Kalmback, and the Gamechanger.  The Gamechanger is a new take on an older product.
 
The hunters are looking over the food plot mixes also.  We can’t have too many mixes to choose from.  I’m also looking for the new and improved.  We are going to stock Tecomate this year.  The ax-Attract is the Cadillac of fall attraction food plots I’m told.  Wea already have Buckbuster in stock.  Let’s not forget that fall is the best time to plant all of those pretty clovers for the bees.
 
Never the less, fall is the most fun in the store.  Lot’s of deer corn, plot mix, and smiles from our great customers.
