Had company come up and I thought Ihad deleted it out before closing.
I have one main lick that I've been putting trace mineral salt and Di-Cal in for about 5 years. Its half as big as the back end of a pick-up truck. I've probably put 300 to 400 pounds of stuff in it over the years.

I don't ever hunt over it. It is just a mineral lick available to the deer whenever they want it. Usually the peak usage is in the spring and summer months. It's cheap, trace mineral loose salt is about $5.50 for 50# and the Di-Cal is around $11.00 per 50# bag. I justmix the stuff in with the clay dirt.

I'm impressed Todd, but what is the product?
I've never had any action at my sites past June; blocks, buckjam, deer cocaine, they just ignore the supplements once stuff starts growing. Where I am I can legally bait but haven't bothered, there is so many apple trees, browse, soy, and corn around that there's no point.
