    What do you guys use to attract deer to you trail cameras? I just got into a new property to me in the last couple of weeks and I want to dictate a little more to the deer where I want to get pics from. There are a lot of deer trails leading in and out of the woods to some bean fields. Just want to know what you all use and how long it takes when using that particular product for the deer to find it and use it.

    I have used corn, salt blocks, rice brand just about all of them.. I just started using a 45 pound bag of salt. My uncle had it for putting it in one of those above ground swimming pools and the deer love it.. But just use some corn. It may take them a week to find it. once the coons find it then the deer will find it.

    We have mineral Licks at all of our cams, but will also put corn out as Lamb said.

    Monster RAXX Whitetail Magnet. Works every time. I have spray it in fesque fgrass along side beans and still get pice of the deer comming to in with their noses buried in to it. Check my pics out on Monster RAXX web site. It is awesome.

    I have three mineral licks out with cams on them and two mock scrapes going right now. you might also put out some vanilla extract out on the mineral sites to get them started.
    My mineral sites have really slowed down with very little rain in my area right now and we have so much soy beans out the deer can enter the fields from anywhere and do,and some are even bedding in the bean and standing corn.
