I tried some in front of my cameras last year. After six weeks I went back to check them and the acorn rage was still on the ground, looked pretty much untouched. In all the deer pics I got on that cam they were pretty much just walking by, ignoring it. You want a great attractant, try a product called Lucky Buck. I've used it in front of my cameras for 4yrs. now and the stuff is dynamite.
