When white oaks fail and reds produce, deer move directly to red oak ridges and draws starting late October and into November. When reds fail and whites produce, deer hammer the early-season white oak drop and then transition fast to whatever else remains. Mast reports often distinguish species-level outcomes for this reason.
Walk your woods in early October to confirm which species produced. Stand setups on the productive species in proximity to bedding will outperform random food sources during the rut.
