Give it at least a week.

Peanut butter. Simply put, they will find it. One jar nailed to a tree. If they're around, they'll destroy it. Trust me.

Lobi - could it possibly be that you are going back there too much leaving your scent around when you are putting all this bait out? Just curious, maybe a factor. Like farmcntry said though, give it at a week. I've had apples and corn out untouched for 4-5 days but when they find it, look out. Please though, keep us posted. In fact, I am going to put a bale out myself this weekend and doctor it up in the same fashion. I would think by next weekend, I will be able to take the deer of my choice. I'll let you know. BTW, I put out a bag of that buck magnet corn soaked in molasses a few weeks ago. That was a Sunday. On the following Thursday, they hadn't touched it yet. Saturday morning it was gone. In fact they tore up an area about 10 x 10 to get every last kernal. Is there any state land in our immediate area without going to Duck Lake Rd. or Highland Rec? I've seen pics of some big bucks taken in our area.
