Ohio Buckeye nuts?

[Chickencoop96]

I found these while scouting Cherokee NF. Y'all know if deer eat these? This is the first time I've come across these in the woods here.

No they won't, I believe they're actually poisonous. If you find chestnuts which look similar, hunt there. Deer love chestnuts.

Based on the hull in that picture I believe you have yellow Buckeye. Not the same as Ohio buckeye I think.

Useless as tits on a boar hog. I'm not sure I've ever even seen squirrels eat them.
