    during the summer to get deer on camera salt products work well for me. Deer Cane or bagged trace mineral salt from your local feed store spread on a 2 foot diameter circle on the ground will attract deer all summer.

    Forget about the pixy dust crap and find out where their natural movements are. Then set up over them and kill them.

    I've always preferred rice bran. It works well where I come from. Better than corn and other attractants. I've never had much luck with salt licks.

    Anything that has a big buck on the front of the bag.

    I think in Florida you have to have an established feeding station so anything but corn will be a lot of money. Regardless, corn is still probably your best bet, whether you want to hear that or not.

    Monster Raxx and Big & J are great attractant companies if you don't want to go the corn route.

    Big & J, at least in Ohio the deer love the stuff. We put it out in front of cameras and they hit it hard.

    How about "lots of corn" :lol:.
    For the money you cant beat it for attracting deer day in and day out.
