Design Your Food Plot Properly

After the overwhelming success of our first web class in 2020, I'm really excited to bring you our second installment in our Web Class Series: How To Plant And Design A Food Plot Program.

What drives the ultimate success of your deer habitat, deer herd and deer hunting dreams? Your food plots!

From great soils to poor soils and so many soil types in-between, my journey began in 1995 with very little information available to the average food plotter. I found by pushing the limits of the Food Plot Planting Basics, there were a multitude of concepts that formed to create the basis for what I personally teach and use to this day.

Those basics make up the foundation of my food plot concepts that I originated many years ago, which you will learn in this Web Class.

Food plots are so powerful that, as an attraction, they have the ability to deliver success or failure in the management of your entire whitetail aspirations.

If you build your food plots correctly, you can reach your whitetail rewards quickly and efficiently; but, built incorrectly, you will experience the risk of a common, frustrating downward spiral of annual diminishing returns.

I am thankful that you are considering this class to guide you on the path towards your land’s ultimate potential of success!

By the end of this web class, you will earned the knowledge necessary to be the neighborhood deer influencer. And you will raise your land’s potential.

Jeff With Buck

Your Instructor

Jeff Sturgis takes decades of pursuing his passion, and then professionally transfers those pursuits into the enhancement of his client’s, reader's and viewer's hunting and habitat experiences, across the entire country. Jeff prides himself in creating the healthiest free-ranging deer herds in the world of whitetails, as well as taking on the challenge of hunting the oldest bucks in the neighborhood. Not only has he been able to create, own and operate a successful business in the whitetail industry since 2005, but he has been able to work along side his wife Diane while doing so.

Jeff received the QDMA's Deer Manager of the Year award in 2004, and hasn't stopped learning since. After studying and creating over 1000 whitetail videos and articles, as well as working on over 1000 client lands across 26 whitetail states, Jeff is in a league of his own when it comes to the ability to design your habitat, herd and hunt - anywhere a whitetail roams!

The fall food plot blend is definitely a game changer!

Unsurpassed Knowledge! If you're a serious whitetail hunter, take it to the next level with Jeff's in depth knowledge that can only be learned years experience.
—Brennen N

Thank you for being so willing to share the knowledge that has taken you years of hard work to obtain. Cheers from SW Michigan!
—Tom

Jeff, big thanks for this video. Last year I abandoned the plots and got the does to leave, and the mature bucks returned right away.
—Buck

I watched the whole class in just a couple days, very good stuff! I especially liked the first video because it goes through his thought process.
—David

Jeff has allowed me to take the advanced principles of land management, and put them to use on my property in a language I could understand.
—Eric E

I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve their property's food plots, bedding areas and who wants to get that mature buck on the wall.
—Josh K

Thanks Jeff for making these priceless videos. So much info packed into these videos. Just a dry sponge soaking up all the great info in your videos and books.
—MeeLow

My only regret is we didn’t do it 20 years earlier!
—George D- Wisconsin

Every time I think of something I'd like to hear you discuss, you end up doing it within your next couple of videos. Keep up the quality info. Thanks.
—Jesse

A beautiful field of green is only part of your overall success!

Since 2005 I have designed over 1000 deer parcels for paying clients in 26 states. However, I understand that not every individual can pay my daily rate of nearly $3000. Also, even though I am visited 125 clients during the 2020 client season, that total number is likely the most I will ever visit again. I really like to stay home more often throughout the year to spend time with family, friends and the whitetail lands that I personally work and hunt on. I am often asked to complete online or phone consultations and those practices simply are not effective and even with the level of experience that I carry, I do not believe that those level of services create enough depth and value to place my stamp of approval on. Due to a lack of time, folks that simply can’t afford to have me visit their land and the level of inaccuracy that online or phone consultations provide, my WHS web classes have been born!

Become a herd influencer

I am extremely excited to deliver to you what I feel is an exceptional compromise between my actual boots on the ground at your deer parcel versus the lower level of accuracy for online and phone consultations. What I try do my best through my web class is to take you through the logical progression of steps for what it takes to design your food plot program in person, by allowing you to make the decisions of balance needed to accurately build a plan that fits you, your resources, your land and the local needs of the whitetail herd. These concepts work, and have been originated by me personally and have been proven over decades of work by tens of thousands of viewers, readers and clients. While these are the concepts that flood my books and over 1000 articles and videos that can be found on my website and YouTube channel, this is the most comprehensive set of content that can be used to effectively design a successful food plot program – within the steps that you should work to complete them in.

By the conclusion of the class you should know where your food plots should go, the differences between different types of food plots (holding, hunting, destination), food sources, calibrating your sprayer, use of chemicals, use of soil tests, and much more – and WHY!

My WHS Web Classes (with more to come) are the next best thing to having me design your land in person, and I am excited to open the availability of these classes to a far greater number of folks than the number I personally work with per year – at a much more affordable price!

What Others Are Saying


This year, I’ve harvested three deer with my bow, here in Massachusetts. Pictured is my first bow buck, taken on November 11th, weighing 191 pounds before dressing. This is my second season bow hunting, after a 30-year break since my days of gun hunting in Trempealeau County.

I couldn’t have achieved this without Jeff’s instructional videos and texts. Please share my heartfelt gratitude with him.

I had a fantastic experience working with Kevan this past winter. I am very new to hunting and have learned so much valuable information on herd development through land improvements. Based upon the site visit , Kevan really took the time to understand where we were at in our hunting journey and from there built our stand and food plot locations. We have had a successful 1st year no till food plot experience using buckwheat! ( I have a picture attached of the buckwheat plot). I have also taken the hunting hills web class to better impact my hunting skills in North Central PA. Jeff is a great educator. I am now prepared to hunt from my stand locations based upon winds/thermals in the hill country of PA. I simply can not that WHS enough for their help. We are excited to apply our new found education to hunting this fall.
Thank you again!

I came across Jeff's Youtube videos several years ago, as an avid outdoorsmen I was drawn immediately to his content. Owning a five acre parcel, which over time I incorporated Jeff's practices. Putting in trails, waterholes, mock scrapes and of course food plots. 3rd season in I harvested a 160's class buck, most people are astonished that deer came from a five acre parcel. After purchasing 120 acres, I decided to book Jeff for an onsite visit ensuring a solid game plan was to be put in place. Scheduling took some time but was well worth the wait, the plan put together by Jeff was excellent, both my hunting partner and I were amazed at the details being presented; it was clear we made the right decision. My overall experience was good, Jeff was professional, his years of knowledge definitely was evident. If you're on the fence about paying the expense, I would recommend moving forward with things, the entire experience was worth every penny. Attached is a picture of the buck referenced above, a deer I called "My Guy" I look forward to many more opportunities in the years to come. Mike N

I'm a big believer in Jeff Sturgis and Whitetail Habitat Solutions,,, Before I stumbled on to one of his videos, I was that guy walking through the middle of my property, sitting on food plots, careless property access, ignoring wind direction and then whining that all my deer are nocturnal,,,Through his videos and property visits,I've transformed my property and have become a much better hunter..As a result I've shot my 5 biggest bucks, since watching that 1st video 5 years ago..

Gary S- Wisconsin

Please Tell Jeff that last year I studied all his videos, spent countless hours improving my 30 acres located in Michigan's U.P. and killed the two biggest bucks of my life! I truly appreciate What he does to educate hunters!Thank You!
