    since I got no response as to "what was a good ryegrass" that the deer preferred, I got with a biologist, and he suggested "Marshal or Nelson" rye grass, thought I'd pass along to anybody that's interested.

    marshal rye grass is the only brand i use. It seems to come up faster, fuller and greener. Makes a good lookin food plot.

    there are better choices than rye grass, it has little nutritional value.
