You are targetting a preferred food source, and in some years, the deer may choose that oak tree over the corn feeder.

Ok I'll argue a little bit. The man that puts out that corn feeder knows where to go to hunt that corn feeder. It will be there all year long. The hot honey locust tree may never be discovered by a hunter. If it is discovered, it won't be the hot spot for the whole season. It may be discovered too late and the deer may never return to it. The man can sit on that corn feeder all season long and at some point a deer will come to eat his never ending supply. The same cannot be said with certainty for an oak or a honey locust. You can say there is no difference, but in reality...........
