Saw them mentioned on another thread. Does anyone know when they are ripe or when deer will start eating them?
my grandpa pulled the same trick on all of us. i've killed many a deer in the persimmon thicket behind the" big bond"My suggestion is to taste one now to see if it is sweet enough.
Actually "please do not do this"
You will be puckerd up for awhile. My grandpa got me on this one, and I've passed the tradition on to my kids and grandkids
I only eat the ones that drop from the tree, or make sure the ones still in the tree are soft. If they are hard, they are bitter. Really bitter
Same rule applies to sand plums, although they are not as bitter when not ripe.

seems like they only made every other year
This is a good year for sandplums.
I've noticed pecans are like that? Only get a good crop every other year. Anybody know if this is mother nature, or just poor observation on my part??
