DONT CUT THEM UP. If you do, they will be too rotten to consume when the deer find them. If I were you Id get a bag or two of shelled corn and a small bag of some kind of attractant (C'Mere Deer is AMAZING) or even buck grub works well. Drop the corn, mix the attractant in, spread it out a bit and throw some WHOLE apples in the mix. If you do not want to use anything but the apples, spray some C'mere Deer liquid on the apple pile you make and if you're near a heavily used trail, or just outside of a bedding and the wind helps you out, a day or two and the pile will be gone !
