Thought some of you might find this interesting:

7 deer + two weeks = -2000 pounds of pumpkin (combined weight between the two)

Topsfield,ma.

LOVED the the video. Now that they have developed a taste for your pumpkins I'll bet they can't wait for dessert next growing season. Hope you have adequate deer protection.

Here in the lower Midwest, it's a right of passage to have at least 1 deer eat your windshield.

Bad idea to let 'em know how good the 'kins are. I agree with woods....hope you have serious deer protection for next year.

I've been growing giant pumpkins for 4 years, and every year they eat them all. 8,722.3 pounds to date. I've never once had a problem with deer during the growing season because I've got a tall fence all around my backyard with locked gates - however, if I didn't have a tall fence I'd sure be in trouble...
