Good Deer Attractants?
 

I got two trail cams and I would like to know what brings deer in other than corn? Thanks for the replies.

Peanut butter

take a jar of PB unscrew the lid, nail the lid to a tree about the height of a deer. Once the lid is on the tree, screw the jar back onto the lid, and cut the bottom off of the jar of PB. The deer love it.

You can also do the same thing with a coffee can that has been cleaned out and de-scented..poke a few holes in the bottom on the can. Put some PB in there, and some maple syrup or molases , a TINY bit of watery to make it a little more watery than normal..put the lid on, and hang it from a tree..the PB mixture (if it nots too thick) will begin to slowly drip from the holes in the bottom of the can..deer will love it as well...

I've used both of these for trail cam pics in the past. Works pretty good. I usually just use the PB jar attached directly to the tree...

Just when you are done, remember to remove everything from the woods...even the nail in the tree if you can. :)

Post some pics if you use this set up and it works for ya?

apple juice. dip wicks that u would normaly use for doe pee or whatever, and dip em in apple juice, then dump the rest of the apple juice on the trail, as long as it doesnt rain the smell will stay for awhile

im telling u guys, my dad and i have had deer 20 yds in front of us licking the ground, and the comcentrate juice works better cuz the smell is stronger..once the deer walk by they smell itand they will be drawn in or will stop for you

RE: Good Deer Attractants?
 

I am thinking of creating my own tell me what you guys think.....


Apples crushed and boiled in water (purrieed)
vanilla extract
brown sugar
maple syrup



bring everything to a boil and try and make it as watery as possible. Then put it into some squirt bottles and spray some stumps and the ground and area all over my trail cam spot. Will be trying it this winter break. I will post some pictures too.

sounds good i might try it myself;)

RE: Good Deer Attractants?
 

Seems like it would work. I don't see why you couldn't use an apple extract instead of real apples. I'm assuming that you're really just want the aroma of the apples to draw them in. You could try one with vanilla and one with apple to see which one they like best.

RE: Good Deer Attractants?
 

I think what ill do is put all of these things in different parts and see which the deer prefer. Thanks for all the help.
