I'm going to have to agree with the Doe in Estrous.....a Deer/Buck will give up food and water to chase after a Doe in heat! :D;)


After that Corn,Alfalfa,Turnips and Clover run a close 2nd,3rd and 4th in the running! ;)

1. Food Plot

2. Pour some vanilla in scent bottle and hang 2-3 bottles at 50-75+ yrds from stand and then watch or set up trail cam and watch.

3.Mcintosh(sp) apples my favorite.Split up and spread around for scent control and greatest attractant I've ever used.They tear em up.

"Hopefully an alphafa field I'll be sitting off of a hundred yards in the bush Monday moring first day of bow season."

I agree...In northern Alberta, alphafa fields are great choices.
