I know there’s no magic answer to this, but I’m just curious what’s worked for others. I mostly use corn because it’s cheap and easy, and I’ve had good luck with Deer Draw, but the price and availability make it harder to keep using all the time.

What have y’all had success with that keeps mature bucks coming in consistently just from feed alone? Looking for ideas that might help pull them off neighboring properties.

Thicker cover and stay out of it. Just show up when you are going to hunt and go in from downwind, basically offer thicker cover and lower pressure. Easy.

Snipe whistle snort wheeze combo gets ‘em every time.

Don’t forget to hunt the line, 95.7% of all trophy bucks live in the barbwire’s shadow.

There is no simple answer. I bought the wooded land that is adjacent to the corn fields. When the open corn field is harvested, they run to the woods. lol

Being patient. Killed a nice one last year that the neighbors had all spring/summer/fall, he stepped across the line and I popped him. They pressured the area and I did not.

Less pressure, better food, more cover/habitat. These 3 equal more does which pulls bucks from all over
