    Miracle grow, get small can, poke holes in the bottom, cut off the top ...add MG, bury it just below the surface next to a big oak...it will "fertilize" the oak for several years, the acorns will be larger and sweeter than the ones on other trees, when hunting in the Ozarks, the sweetened trees draw all the deer for a mile, they will eat every acorn from the sweet tree before they go after the "rest"...

    Deer love grape kool-aid as a drink too! I used a large plastic tote about 20 gallon & large container of grape kool-aid. Put it in front of camera on my property about 100yds from my house. They were nervous at first but finally just couldn't resist the smell & started chugalugging it up like a bunch of thirsty kids. Just did it for fun, but they did like it

    My deer herds in south MS prefer grape Kool Aid. Poured or mixed with anything.

    So after reading the comments, we did infact buy the bag of cracked corn for $4.99. But, after contacting the store from where we purchased the cracked corn. The bag of cracked corn does normally cost $12.99 per bag. At the time of purchase, they had overstocked and were trying to just get rid of it at a discounted rate. At which time we did not know that. We do apologize for the confusion over the price of cracked corn.

    I'm betting if you used whole corn instead of cracked corn you would have had a different result

    Always use cracked corn. Will last much longer and deer love it. Too many bear around here though, they eat your bait up.

    I think it needs to be pointed out that, while deer show a preference, in the absence of other options, they’re going eat what’s provided. They’re not repelled by the cracked corn, they just had a preference for the other flavours.
    AFA the “attractant”, I don’t think you answered the question. The deer showed up and you don’t know for sure whether the baits “attracted” them or if they just happened by on a travel route (which is where I would put my bait, too).

      I Concur... I also pour Wild Game Innovations Apple Crush (contains 17% protein), over the apple corn.
      I start supplemental feeding right after the season ends (with the above items), to help the deer get through the winter and to help in the antler growth of the bucks during the spring and summer months... Works WONDERS!!!

    Try whole oats. I’ve tested shelled corn vs whole oats, the turkeys and deer went nuts for the oats and left the corn alone

    Nothing wrong with baiting at all. Despite what those with low IQ's think deer have the advantage. They can smell and hear you at great distances and there faster than any dog could ever dream to be. They graze 99% of the time so even if its natural veg your hunting over there feeding areas. Who is one man to tell another what hunting is. Prob a veagan.

    I hunt for meat and life isn't fair. Me starving is more important than what's fair for the deer. If the deer wants rules for its death then the deer can can go write its congressman.

      If we are using humans as an analogue, then maybe we shouldn’t hunt during the deers’ mating season. After all, every human male I have ever known would instantly drop his burger or slice of pizza to go get himself some female “action”, especially if he only had a window of a couple of months per year to do it. So deer hunting over food, therefore, is perhaps MORE ethical than hunting the rut - if we use human behavior as the standard.

      This video is for the use of trail cameras and not hunting. Baiting a month before season in a area you intend to hunt is illegal in Pennsylvania where we are biased out of. Sorry for the confusion
