Has anyone done an actual side by side test to compare which deer feed protein deer prefer?

I just know they wouldn't touch ACCO, but they're going nuts over Hi-Pro Hill Country 17%.

Yeah the deer at my place aren’t touching the buck seduction brand feed I have in my feeders right now. Doesn’t help that everything is so green. Prefer it that way honestly

I have fed antlermax and DD, I did a side by side sample for a feeder full of DD. They are it, but this was at the end of the season when nothing was green and deer were hungry. Can’t say they are the DD any more so than the other protein, YMMV

L&E 20% is getting slammed at my place right now. 250 lbs every 10 days or less

We use RHR, also a Dilley feed product. $2.00 a fifty less. We have big deer and they seem to like it. Whatever product you use, stick with it. Get them something and feed that something over and over. Deer are ruminants and consumption rates can deteriorate if constantly switching for price or whatever other reason.

Whichever one they'll eat. Honestly, those products are so similar it doesn't really matter.

I've tried many. Our deer are picky eaters but go ape**it over 'Red chain 20%'. It has peanut hulls and smells like a candy bar. They walk past the corn to eat it.
