Default RE: Food Plots????

Lunchbucket I can appreciate your statement, and agree with you on most of your point. I do however - hate the "secret spot" and "honey-hole" type mixes. The fine print expresses the realistic expectations of the product, but outwardly they tempt people to waste their money on a few "magic" seeds.

For example, the bag of "secret spot" a freind showed me - had a "special ingredient" to help increase Ph levels and encourage establishment. For god sakes the bag had maybe 1-1/2 lbs of mixed seed (rye, rape, clovers, chickory, and grasses), and a little extrafine lime. What a joke!!!

I think the bag was only like $10.00, he was going to plant it near his treestand, and hopefully pull the deer in off his neighbor's 30 acre alfalfa field. What was I to say? ......... I wished him luck.......
