Hi all!

Has anyone had any luck using peanut butter to attract deer? My buddy just got one. He smeared peanut butter on a tree trunk. Now we need to figure out if it was the peanut butter or just a coincidence.

Anyone?

peanut butter seems to be a good attractant around where i live. As for vanilla etc. If it intrests them, thell fall for it!

I put a plastic jar hoz on a tree with the lid nailed. I then cut a slot in the jar and they licked it all. A buck also had used the tree to rub his antlers. I find molasses better.

All I attracted was fire ants.

I remember anumber ofyears ago seeing a product that was marketed as an attractant for deer that claimed to posses a peanut butter smell. The shape resembled a large disc that you placed on a long wood stake that you would position in the ground. Never used them, never thought much about them until reading your post.

I'm thinking that would be baiting in Illinois. Unless you convince the CPO you dropped your PB sandwich under your stand

I heard Nacho cheese Doritos works good.

In NJ baiting is allowed.Someone else said deer love unswetened grapekoolaid.

I'm stuck here in S Florida. Didn't hunt here. Dont have a clue where to hunt here. The thought of hunting in this heat also doesn't help.

My buddy in NJ got the buck. He's kind of dumb, good guy, but kind of dumb. We always joke around with him. I'm the one who told him to use peanut butter as a joke. Hahaha! Looks like the joke is on me!

I'm making up a batch of peanut butter stuff to send to theranch in Ohio so I can watch on the camera to see what the deer do.

They have hay and corn now. Doesn't appear that they preferone over the other.

A thread about PEANUT BUTTER and no reply from Cardeer?

I figured the mere mention of PEANUT BUTTER would have baited him in right quick.

Yes Peanut Butter works. Just nail the jar to a tree with a polebarn nail. I have also had good luck mixing salt, almost any extract, and water and dumping on fallen dead tree or old stump. Nutty, fruity, and mintysmellingextracts all work.
