I'm curious what people thought their best food plot this year for hunting over was? We had soybeans, rye, and clover this year. The clover and beans were both good, rye was ok during the first part of the rifle season, and after we got a little snow/ice, the beans were getting pounded and the other two were hardly being touched!

Early the radishes were hit and wiped out.  The deer then moved to the oats which were actually the cheap horse food variety of seed. After a few frosts the deer moved to the rye and were hitting them the last week of the rifle season.  The clover trails were used all year long.
Anything that is free is worth saving up for.

First year of doing plots, 2 of 4 turned out ok, 1 was really good and 1 did almost nothing, of what grew they seemed to love the clover, but the turnips and radishes that turned out look like they are just starting to get hit last week so I will wait to say unitl bowhunting is over.Hoping for some snow to see if they hit the turnips hard when it gets colder out.
