The ABC's of Whitetail Deer Minerals 

I think you are on point with most of what you said. Good unbiased video. What I appreciate the most is that you try to present facts you have researched and not simple hype or opinion. Keep making videos and keep learning. God Bless!

I just want to tell you thank you for being my friend

Thank you for making this video

I think every region/area has its own ideas. Out west (NE Wa state) we hunt public land mountain whitetail. We cannot use any of these items effectively during the antler growth season for a multitude of reasons. All of these products draw in bears and we have lots of them. Also, the free ranging cattle set up camp over any mineral block until they’ve devoured it all. Not only that but we don’t use them during the growth period because if you draw deer in to regularly visit this products it also draws in the predators. Bears, Cats, coyotes, wolves, etc. The predators will push out those deer from your area. So what we do is we plant a mineral block after November 1st because that is the date the ranchers must remove their cattle from the grazing leases. Also, the bears are really starting to slow down and look for their motel 6 locations for winter hibernation. The mineral blocks give a source of minerals during the hard cold snowy winters there (4000ft elevation) while they’re recovering from the November rut. As far as attractants we use a certain sweet cob bait that we’ve only found in one particular feed store. It has extra molasses in it that makes it tacky to the touch. They can’t resist it. Use it to draw the does in and the bucks that are chasing the doe scent will be coming. You only get one chance because these bucks don’t hang in one area. They will travel miles(ridges, draws,etc) working the winds looking for love. So location and setup is our biggest key along with patience. Again, predators are the biggest factor for us and keeping them away as long as possible is our best chance.

Keep putting minerals out to keep your herd healthy going into this fall.

Your right. I stopped using them because where I live I'm surrounded by great deer food everywhere. We can put it out but can't hunt near it. But I'm agreeing with you and am setting some out tomorrow. I guess throw some steroids in the mix😂

Still believe that lucky buck is best. 60% salt attract deer. The selenium iodine and the slight amounts of cobalt, copper, manganese is a benefit. I put a trophy rock on top of it.

It. Was good real good
