Default New Lease no food plots

We are in a new lease in GA this year and didn't have time to plant any food plots. We have some older sites where plots were and will begin planting next year but I would like some advise on any attractant we might take advantage of this year.

I have heard cmere deer and mineral licks might work. Just trying to up the ante a bit since we are in a deer rich area but don't have any plots established yet. Leases around us are seeing and shooting alot of deer on and around their plots but we haven't had any luck yet in the early season. Might not be as critical when the cold weather sets in and they start moving around more or chasing does but we currently don't have anything attractive to hold them on our property food wise.

Any suggestions as to a "quick" fix for us since it is a bit too late to plant?

Thanks, was looking for a legal solution just to increase the odds a bit in our favor. Next year we will have more time to prepare.

We do not have any food plots here, and using scents, calls,and rattling brings them in for us. We usually like to call and scent by some hard wood neer a softwood thicket. It works for us and there is not a lot of deer here.
