Why not just keep it out year round?

RE: Mineral salt lick
Yeah I agree. If it works keep it out year round.

RE: Mineral salt lick
Another "I agree" here. Just put it out now while you're thinking about it. If the question had been "when do deer utilize minerals most?" the answer would be spring time.

RE: Mineral salt lick
In Illinois it"s aganst the law to put out salt licks or bait, it really sucks becouse we have the problem of over pops here. alot of (bunny huggers ) feed the deer in the summer, but it"s to cold to do it in the winter. Ya know when they really need it.they feed them in summer so a 2 or 3 year old doe has twins or triplets, than in the cold weather one or two die. Some people are just plain stupid.... Not any of you guys, but you know what I mean.

RE: Mineral salt lick
We do get out there and harvest them. Have you ever heard of C.W.D. It"s a big problem in Illinois, 10 or15 countys in the state are affected. I don"t make the problem worse by winter feeding, I try shooting as many big does as I can. I did more than my part in 07, and not bragging. Just trying to put more deer in hunters against hunger. Do you know what couses C.W.D.?

RE: Mineral salt lick
cwd is spread by the transaction of saliva between deer, and is highly accelerated by feeding!!!! hint: maybe you shouldn't have community feeders where cwd is prevalent.
