Make a mock scrape with the doe scent. Get some buck scent to if you can, or you can put the doe scent in a dripper and hope that a buck makes a scrape where the drip falls.

I would save the lick and cane until the spring or summer because those types of supplements are only usefull for antler development/milk production. I would reccomend corn for a cold season bait.

I dont know about the apples, Im from Alabama... we dont really have apples...and we cannot legally bait deer.
