Default Baiting spots not hit yet why?

Went to bait a couple of spots last night and to notice when I get there that only 1 out of 3 had been hit. The 2 spots that weren't hit have always been hit late season bow hunting. We have about 8 inches of snow where I hunt and I couldn't believe that all the spots were hit. I put the corn out last Saturday already and they should of found it by now.

This weekend is herd reduction for me in WI and I looking to take a couple of does down. You can use your gun but I am going to take my bow and muzzleloader with me.

Anyone have an suggestions why they haven't found it yet?

How was your acorn mast? If there are still acorns around, that is where they are

There is something they like better or they haven't found it yet.

Exactly. The bait will probably be the last thing they hit. Deer will walk over piles of corn to go to acorns. When the acorns are gone then the corn will work.

Had a quite a few acorns this year so that might be part of the reason.
