I used the Conquest Evercalm Deer Herd in a Stick, that one had the best reviews out of everything i had found and i like the idea it was a deer herd not just doe or buck pee and yea i normally try to not put any type of scent out i am always worried those things are just a gimmick but i was desperate and i noticed when i did get to my feeders the smell of hogs was overwhelming that’s when the idea hit me, at that point I really had nothing to lose since I wasn’t seeing any deer at all but if you do try it let me know how it works, to me the theory is sound but would be interesting to hear how it worked for others

Also just to let you know I put some on the legs of the feeder as well as putting that stick up that was covered in it and I also put it on trees about 20 yards away from my feeders kinda circling it

Acorns haven't dropped in NE Texas in my area...weird.

I just moved here from Arkansas, hence the name . Well, I built a pen to keep the hogs away, and put a gravity feeder inside it. The gravity feeders sat for 3 weeks and a single deer didn't jump in there. So, we finally got moved down here, and I put out 5 cameras around trails and different angles to the pen. Now, I'm up to 6 different deer but mainly just scraggly small bucks eating some of my hand spread corn.

They have gotten brave enough to eat right next to the pen, but have yet to jump in. My thoughts have been that the acorns are so plentiful, they aren't hitting the corn too hard yet. Hopefully this weather front gets them moving and eating the corn. I'm going to keep running several cameras on trails and such, but wondered what you guys thoughts were....

Thanks!

Are you sure you have acorns? Here in Northeast Houston County the Acorns are slim. The deer are eating corn better than I've seen in many years..

You tell me, do I have a problem this year?

He'll have a problem when she stomps him and runs him off.

He just lost his spots about a month ago. Got to give him an A for trying. And he is her son.

Does coming into heat, just like female dogs riding each other from time to time. I had a few does getting pissy with each other yesterday, one even reared all the way up on her hind legs, quite the site from 30 yards away. DMS, does "monsterating" is good site for hunters.. haha
