Ken Hosford of Liberty County harvested this tremendous 16-point buck that weighed 195 pounds and green-scored 187-6/8 inches as a non-typical.
"I feed the 20% protein F-R-M Mid-Way Deer Pellet. It is an excellent, soybean based pellet, containing all of the essential vitamins and trace minerals for maximum antler growth. While many of the other deer pellets on the market today are nothing more than recycled cow feed, the Mid-Way formula is specifically designed for maximum protein absorption for whitetail deer." -Ken Hosford Hosford, Florida

In 2004, The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission reported a study of the old Robert Brent Wildlife Management Area. The area, located in the "sandbelt" of the Florida panhandle, consists of rolling sandy hills, sand and slash pine plantations, and titi and gallberry drainages. The whitetail deer there have small bodies and small antlers, with an average population density of one deer per 47 acres.
In 1998, Ken Hosford, drawing from this deer herd - with no imported or non-native genetics - began an intensive, trophy management pjrogram. In 2002, Mr. Hosford made F-R-M Midway 20 Deer Pellets the backbone of the program. THE RESULTS HAVE BEEN NOTHING SHORT OFPHENOMENAL!"The bucks pictured below reflect continued success from recent seasons. These bucks are all native North Florida whitetails with access to F-R-M Midway 20 Pellets from free choice feeders."

The first year we switched to the F-R-M Midway Deer Pellets, we witnessed an enormous increase in antler development for our whitetail deer at the Big Bucks Preserve. There is no other feed that can impact antler development like F-R-M Midway Deer Pellets.
