RE: Mineral Licks and ANtler Growth
I'm in my 3rd year of putting out minerals. I honestly can't see a spike in antler growth.....either on camera or on bucks I personally see.
BUT.....(no. 1)....I saw at least 17 different 1.5 and 2.5 yr olds in the '06 season that I never laid eyes on, again. Who knows if this helped them, or not?
I also can't be sure everyhting with the bucks I have seen isn't related directly to genetics.
But...(no. 2)....I'm sure the does are reaping the benefits, too. For this reason, alone, I'll continue to place minerals out for them.
