Building the Best Food Plots For Michigan’s Hunters

Installing a food plot on your property enhances your hunting experience and creates a sanctuary where wildlife thrives. Food plots provide essential nutrition, helping to grow healthier deer and other game, making hunting more rewarding. At MotorCity Hot Shot, we specialize in various food plot types, from lush clover that blankets the ground to hearty soybeans that stand tall. Each selection is tailored to attract and nourish game effectively, offering the best hunting opportunities right on your land.

Whitetail Deer

Whitetail deer are highly attracted to plots seeded with a mix of clover, soybeans, and chicory, providing a rich diet that supports their growth and health. These food sources not only keep the deer returning but also make them ideal for hunting in the lush Michigan landscapes.

Rabbits

Rabbits favor areas with abundant cover and a varied diet, making clover and alfalfa two top choices for attracting them to food plots. Establishing these in smaller, strategic plots can turn your land into a rabbit haven, perfect for small game hunting enthusiasts.

Turkeys

Turkeys are drawn to plots that offer a combination of grains like corn and sorghum and legumes such as soybeans. These food sources, especially when planted near wooded areas, can create an irresistible draw for turkeys throughout the year.

Pheasants

For pheasants, establishing a mix of corn, sorghum, and millet provides both the cover and the diverse diet they seek. These grains attract pheasants and help sustain their populations on your property, making it a hotspot for pheasant hunting.

Grouse

Grouse thrive in areas with dense cover and a supply of fruits and berries, which can be mimicked by planting shrubs like dogwood and hawthorn. Creating these conditions in your food plots can make your land an excellent venue for grouse hunting, offering both challenge and reward.

FAQs About Food Plot Services

Timing and maintenance are key factors in the success of your food plot. MotorCity Hot Shot advises that the best planting times vary depending on the specific crops you’re planting and the local climate in Michigan. Generally, late spring to early summer is optimal for most seed mixes, with maintenance checks and touch-ups required throughout the growing season to maintain optimal growth.

Choosing the right location for a food plot involves considering several factors, including sunlight exposure, soil quality, and proximity to natural wildlife corridors. MotorCity Hot Shot’s team of experts will assess your property to identify the most advantageous spots for planting. Ideally, a plot should be placed where it can receive ample sunlight while being easily accessible to wildlife yet not too close to areas of human activity to avoid disturbances.

MotorCity Hot Shot employs several natural strategies to prevent overgrazing and ensure that your food plot remains productive and beneficial for various wildlife. These strategies include planting a diverse mix of forage species to spread out grazing pressure, using plot rotation to allow areas to regenerate, and incorporating perennial plants that can withstand heavier browsing. Additionally, natural barriers like thickets or tall grasses can help deter certain wildlife from over-accessing the food plot. By employing these holistic management practices, we can balance wildlife attraction and plot sustainability.
