We have plastic kiddie pools on every food plot on our lease. Deer use them all the time. Only difference is ours are blue, orange, and yellow. We also didn’t bury ours

Maybe deer are Auburn fans?

But they should take to it with time as the smell fades?


Not sure what a pool does

Deer do love some peanut butter, but the
Problem I run into is they eat it up in just a couple days .
I have been watching alot of hunting shows here
lately, alot of hunters on the shows have been
Making watering pools. They make a product slap
That you pour into your water hole that says it attracts deer
and makes them healthy and grows bigger racks.

Another product to separate a fool from his money.

I should update that I finally got video of deer at the watering hole last card pull. Maybe it was just a smell that finally wore off.

I've seen the cattle troughs do really well. Let the grass grow all around it and add some sticks and stuff around it. My lease has 4 branches running through 120 acres.

I hunted at Dry Creek Club in Dayton many years with Nelson Brown. There were three artesian wells on the place with water spigots and when it was a dry Fall,all you had to do was open one up and deer would be there shortly to get some cold water.
