Had been buying them brick size corn, apple, & acorn blocks since they started selling them in walmart, burry flush with ground along game trails.. Hogs started finding them alsi so went to plubing store & got plastc shut off casing for buring & mounted off ground bout deer hight... Got minneral block for cattle cut in half fits pretty good, tried the Roasted Corn Freeks in brick size this year, not a promoter, they hit em more in warmer weather.. No pics of deer at the Popper attractant, have them hanging close ta corn thrower, with the drip, made for the liquid type Roasted Corn Freaks.. Have never tried the Cocain stuff... As said not promoting just posting... Best wishes... Mineral blocks seem ta work best in warmer weather.. flag

We have been using this http://www.hudsonlivestock.com/products/trophydeerlix.html It is less than 20 miles for us to pick up the tubs.

cheers will check it out.. Were i was raised & started hunting, was like WMA rules, No Baiting , & before all the English Grammer Experts start yelling, thats how its printed in the booklet.. Here at house & when leasing, did put corn mineral blocks, food plots & such out for deer... Mainly ta give back... The deer do learn ta pattern hunts, & in the one buck counties, tis the does, that do the baiting... rofl as mentioned family, & grillen & chillen... The first shot fired, usualy sets off warning for deer that survived previous seasons, they know were stands & feeders are & go nocturnial.. The does, just like on big ranches ya see on tv will feed during day, sat many a times on LF small acres & have been beaten by mature bucks many atimes, get glimps & poof they gone... Might be little muyloco cause makes the heart feel good that once in awhile the deer with only its sence of smell, hearing, & eye sight wins over a camoed, thermo cell scent caring, long range with multiple shots rifle touten wanna-be Boone & Crocket hunter like me... Biggest deer ever took was hunting with family & taken with .45 Kentucky... flag
