Hunting question. Will the deer eat acorns off the low hanging branches before they ripen/drop?

I've only seen them eat the leaves off oaks. I believe the tannin acids are too high if not ripe.
Now I will say that I've had several deer eat leaves off of a branch I'd just cut that morning.
Cut one branch blocking a whole area and the deer flock to it. Crazy how they can find it right under my tree.

A few years back a water oak dropped in one of my hunting areas and the bucks around the area made a huge scappe around the tree linbs that were loaded with green leaves and young acorns . I hunted it twice but didn't see any deer, I set up a camera and had some spikes and small rack deer coming to it at night.

I'm assuming that someone was blowing through the area in a red dodge, disturbing everyone's hunting. At least that's all I can come up with from the comments. Anyways, the offer stands to anyone who needs assistance. I haven't hunted the NF in 10+ years, so I wasn't looking to start anything. If I'm off in left field with my guess about what the red dodge/tires remarks where about, just ignore it

You weren't the guy, but there was a guy that was reported to drive a red dodge with new tires. It happened last year or the year before. If I remember right, he was poaching spots from one of our guys.
Seemed he would drive around a look for TBH stickers and then go hunt that spot.
I KNOW you aren't that guy.
I was just making a funny.
Nothing to worry about.
Thanks for the offer, you never know when that may be needed.

Some people have zero respect for you guys who put in the time to scout around. You guys have my respect...I'll admit, I've been ruined by feeders and the ease of my box stand and climbers that stay up all season
