    Neighbor borrows his tractor to a pumpkin farm every year.  In return, he gets all the left over pumpkins (and there's a ton), so he usually takes a whole pickup load.  Then in Nov/Dec we have a big Pumpkin Shoot!  Total blast, and all the deer love us for it!
    strange thing is, I have put jack o lanterns, and other leftover pumpking pieces out in the backyard at the house and the deer love em, If I take the same thing out to my treestand and leave em in the woods they lay and rot, seems wild deer don't like em, and I don't put candles in em so it isn't the smell, I have even taken the seeds and "guts" out right after making the jack o lanterns they don't mess/eat them either............

    We have performed non-scientific testing with pumpkins squash to establish terminal effects of various rounds.

    For example, a .50 BMG round will leave a 1/2" diameter entry and exit hole in all of the test subjects.

    A .50 AE hollow point will blow the top of the test subjects 20+ feet in the air, and scatter the remains in various sized pieces to in a 15', 270° arc around the test stand.

    About the only decent use for a pumpkin, IMO.

    Surprised a friend shooting a 300 wby, small entry and a little bigger exit. 223 with a Speer 52gr varmint hollow point out of my Contender did a LOT more dramatic damage. Something to be said for using up most of the energy in the target and not in the backstop. Bob
