I read in a magazine one time where they recommended digging a 4'Wx8'Lx6"-1'D foot hole (W=wide x L=Length x D=deep) and either use a tarp or visqueen (sp?) in the bottom of it, then mix your minerals and dirt together and put this back in the hole. This will allow the tarp/visqueen to hold the minerals and will create a man made salt/mineral lick. Refresh every year or so. Deer love fresh dirt so by doing this they will find it and your minerals will keep them coming back. If you have a disc or tiller you can do this really easy, disc it up and scoop it out, lay your tarp in and mix and replace. I have never tried this, I normally just buy the mineral/salt blocks and use them. It is not doing as much good as what he suggested because it is only a TRACE mineral block, but they seem to like it.
