Mineral block for me. I set one out for 1 week about 3 months ago and the deer are still eating the ground. I have a hole about 2 feet across and 1 foot deep. It may be bigger now as I haven't checked it out for a couple of months. Here in Indiana we can set bait out but need to remove it at least 10 days before the season starts. I only use it for my trail cam.
