Cmere Deer or other products - 08/10/11 03:28 PM
Ive been wondering if I should be use some sort of attractant. I have 2 feeders that the deer come into regularly and several protein blocks and water troughs near by. Should I also be spending my money on the attractants and if so when should I start? What kind works best also?
Thanks

What I have learned about attractants is if is is something not normally found in area it scares deer enless you have it out early enough they get used to it! If they have fruit trees and are use to smell then you can throw fruit out,but if it's new to them then they shy away,same goes for acorns or other non-indiginous smells/attractant.

This has been my experience also.
Corn has worked as good, or better, than anything else on the market.

Right now H20 is going to be the best attractant for most places.

I am usually very skeptical of all attractants as they seem to only attract the huners' pocketbooks vs. deer. However, I recently gave Rack Daddy mineral a try and have to say that in less than 24 hours, deer were on the mineral. I am about as skeptical as they come but was impressed with this product.

A waste of money.....however I'm a sucker for anything. I buy a gallon of corn syrup every other month or so and mix a jello package with it and start putting it out in a metal trough about this time of year-homemad Buck-Jam. I don't have to worry about pigs though. But back to the original topic: anybody can get lucky with anything once.

Tried it and others...........NEVER WORKED! Still a sucker though, sometimes I'll give something new a try but til now I've always disappointed. This year I found 2 kinds of attractants from BuckRage on sale at Academy for $0.88 and $1.88 so i'll give them a try but for the price can't go wrong.

can you put that in a spin feeder?

Re: Cmere Deer or other products - 08/10/11 09:12 PM
NO NO - Do not put any type of sweet feed in a spin feeder. It will certainly stop it up and rot.

Cmere Deer does not work.....the only attractants for me that are the real deal are corn and HOT does (and I will take the later any and all day)

Buck Crack
I have 8 extra buckets in the back of my weak broken down jeep that was supposed to be picked up. Your pric is 49.00 I deliver for the small fee of 30 dolla. I can video your hunts as well for a small fee. I will trade you a turkey hunt for a squirrel hunt. We will proably see some 150 deer while hunting so get ready.

I have started using Rack Daddy minerals with some really good luck.
C'Mere deer is a waste of money. I've tried deer cocaine blocks and powder works ok.. cows like better than the deer.

They seem to work this year for me. This is what some swamp donkey and minerals have done. Then again it may be cause there is nothing else to eat here in north east Texas.

I think that stuff works best when your getting paid by the vender!
I have had luck with granular salt/mineral that I used for my cows, but that is time of year spacific, not really an attractant.
Good food plot, corn and water and security are good attractants, (hot doe too) IMHO

Anyone ever heard of cutting up sweetpotatoes and tossing them out as an attractant?

apples are pretty good

Re: Cmere Deer or other products - 08/13/11 11:41 AM
Drops from the local orchards in Kansas work well for us as well. They are free at some orchards if you pick them up as they cannot sell them to the public.
It is pretty cool to watch one of those Kansas deer put a whole apple in his mouth and chomp, roll it with their tongue, chomp roll it with their tongue. It does not take them but a moment to make that apple disappear.

The way I see it, if your spending thousands of dollars to lease a place, fuel to get there, gear, rifle/ammo/optics. Whats $30.00 extra? Ive used "attractants" before but not religiously, just mix some in with some corn and throw it out before a hunt. I wouldnt put it directly underneath a feeder but in some outside clearings. You never know what a deer is going to be interested in and I dont see them getting spooked by anything mixed with corn.
