Default RE: Minerals (results?)

unless you feed them like you feed a dog atleast twice a day your not going to see much from a once in a while thing but you will attract them to the area and such...i bought a 5lb apple flavored mineral block(really taste like old apples i licked it!) and within a week i could see where they liked the corner and edge and it was knocked of the stumb i had it on which held it pretty securely so i know it was licked...i also spread 50lbs of corn and it was gone sometime iwthin that week...i know deer did most of the eating by the way it was tore up...it wasnt turkey and we have no hogs...sure chipmunks maybe a tree rat or 2 and a coon ate some but i think deer got the better part of it...i just wanted to ensure deer would use that trail during hunting season becuase i hung a stnad htere...that was 2 mnths before season beacuse its illegal withing 30 dyas of the season here...and i tagged out the first morning at my number one spot and didnt get to hunt my stand!...
