gnarly

we use 50 lb ofplain mixing salt...12-15 lbs Dicalcium Phosphate (comes in 50 lb bags)...find a decomposing stump that is soft enough to crumble in your hands. if it is not a huge stump, then find rotten logs or pieces of rotten stumps and pile them around the main stump. if you have a shovel and there is some really rich dirt from recently decomposed stumps or logs, shovel several scoops on top of the main stump. pour the salt and dical on top of your stump / decomposed logs. usually i will get two 50 lb bags of salt to start out the lick and freshen it up with 4 parts salt, 1 part dical. Ive read several articles about how the dicalcium phosphate will potentially increase antler growth up to 15-30 inches, and it also helps the does out when they are carrying fawns and lactating. Its really easy, and once you find a good spot to make one (good rich soil areas of the property are the best)all you have to do is add to it several times a year. Thereare a couple old lickson our property that we havent touched since last season and they are still chewing on the stumps and pawing all around it!! Make sure you mix the salt in with the dical because they will not eat the dical by itself at first. Good luck and if you make one, put up a trail cam and show us the pics.
