No I didnt prove your point, the reason the deer are hitting my blocks/ licks is not for minerals but only for the salt in them and salt isnt a food source. Trust Me deer in OH. prefer corn over any other food source that is available to them.
And thats not what you said, this is what you said.
""""""""""""""""""""""""""I'm pretty sure it's like that everywhere. If deer have a preferred food source, they will pass up everything else to eat that food. They probably like corn better than that other gimicky stuff. Just like I have seen deer walk right over corn to eat out of a food plot"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
My point is the gimicky stuff as you called it can and does work better than any food source if the deer have sufficient natural browse and other food sources. Pike
