|
|
Hey everybody, I dont know why but none of the deer are coming to my feed, The way I set up is I pour out about 4-5 LBS. on the ground of the performance trophy buck blend, it is a 50 pound bag of deer corn, peanuts, cane, mollasis. Here is a link to the feed: http://www.performancefeedco.c.....hyBuck.jpg
Then I pour some evolved habitats, deer cravin apple on it, plus my dad mixes a little of it with hot water, and puts it into a spray bottle and I hose down the bushes and branches. So, how come the deer arent eating the corn? Any ideas on how to get the deer to come to my trail cam bait? |

Buy a cheap salt block at your local feed store. Then buy some plain old shell corn. Then, only check your trail cam once per week. Also, make sure you put it in an area that deer frequent.
You might be doing too much to the food and probably have too much activity in the area.
Good luck and keep us posted. |

| just a suggestions Whitetails are on the same patern now which means they go straight to food from bedding area and to water if your honey hole is not in line with the food sources or water they may be missing it |

Hmmmm....sounds like maybe you're not putting enough stuff out there.
Maybe a neon sign will help. :evil: |
