    Mid October.
    45-60 Degrees.
    Afternoon Hunt into Evening Hours.

    Local Farmer has planted 75 acres of beans. Along the property very good Oak plots which seem to be hit hard with traffic. (I seem to be answering my own question here...)

    Beans have trails cut through them and all the tops are off, looks as if the beans are starting to dry out a bit and all the pods are still on them.

    Does anyone have suggestions on hunting locations? Or better question is, what is your experience with hunting beans/acorns on the same property. I don't have much experience with beans/acorns, generally sit on corn fields.

    Appreciate the comments.

    I would hunt acorns until the bean dry completely and then they may hit them again.

    If the trees are on the edge of the beans hunt them both! Fallow the bean paths to the trees and set up there. You may see them in the beans alot but i beat there in those acorns just as much. Good luck.
