I use peanut butter all the time. What I do is have a few hanging in my food plots. I have a few trees scattered throughout my plots so I take a piece of twin and tie it to a limb. I then cut holes big enough for the deer to lick through in the sides of a large peanut butter plastic jar. I cut a hole in the lid of jar and then run the twine through it and tie a small stick to it to keep the twine from pulling out the lid. Replace the lid on the jar and let it hang. Be sure to put it at a level that the deer can reach. The deer LOVE it!! Good Luck!! -- CDH
