Check out some local farms down there. They should have feed corn to sell by the ton-cheap. Mix a little Southern States molasses corn in and stand back or be trampled
I put just a tiny bit out before going out of town and the wife called the next morning to say we had 20+ Turkeys in the back yard tearing it up

A co-worker of mine gets it from the amish. I think he pays 10 bucks for a bag. A 100 pound bag. I'll try and get a location for you.

That's about what I pay from local farmers after the harvest.

deer corn

Check Feed Dealers in the yellow pages. Wherever you buy it, check the corn for a high concentration of cob pieces, they don't feed well and jam your feeder. I sometimes am lucky enough to see a farmer in the process of picking corn. If you are lucky, you can buy a pickup load righ from the field. In my case, I waited until the bulk truck was full and the farmer simply moved the discharge chute to my truck and bingo I had a load of corn, cheap. Of course you will need some bags or drums to store it. Good luck with your corn hunting.

So I went today to the place I mentioned (those who PMed me you will be getting one here shortly) and I got 180 (approximately cuz the scale measures in 20lbs) of corn for 25 bucks. It's currently .14 cents for a Lb of corn at my spot. Way better than the 10 bucks for a 40 lb bag and bass pro and other retailers.

I usually get it from the Amish at Stauffer's Feed Mill down rt. 5 on the left hand side. It's just past accurate guns and ammo. They aren't open on sundays though. It used to be $10 a 100 lb bag. Haven't bought it yet this year

Its baiting AND hunting. And its perfectly legal in MD.

Lx1x, we go to an amish farm in St. Marys. It was $135 for 1500 lbs last year. The corn is clean and has never jammed our feeders.

Perfectly legal for deer. I wouldn't recommend it for geese.
