We received some product to test a few weeks back and I finally got around to putting some out. It's a mineral supplement called Bag R Buck, and I was leary as I have NEVER had a mineral attractent work beyond basic salt licks. Man am I a believer now. It activated the first night and literally filled a 2 gb card of deer activity in like 8 days. Enjoy the pics, 3 main shooter bucks. First the 9 pointer I got pictures of earlier in July, MAN has he filled out nicely. Borderline shooter became a no brainer. Next is a new buck for me this year, a near perfect crab claw ten. His right is a little weaker than his left, which is a trait that is VERY repetitive in the genes out there.
Another of the crab claw 10. Another 5x4 like the first, only with a sticker off the G2 and a split brow. VERY cool deer....With a 1 minute interval, I honestly had 228 pictures of this deer, he stayed at the lick for a 4 hour span all during daylight! Another smaller deer interested in that darn mineral bag, I was VERY impressed and can't wait to activate a few different licks next summer. And a night shot of the crab claw 10.
It's just a normal mineral attractant as far as I can tell, except it works freakin awesome. They began hitting it the day after I placed it, and I got 1200 something pics in 8 days. The thing that shocked me was, it was in a NO traffic area. 1 month prior I had a cam in the same exact woodline, and in TWO weeks I had exactly 12 pics of the same doe. Literally NO deer movement, which IMO means that the minerals alone are why these deer are hitting the area now. I cut open one bag and poured it into the dirt, and hung another from the tree to be a slow drip bag. It is working great so far! I'm not sure on nutritional value for deer, but attraction value is top notch.
Awesome pics - got any contact info for the bag - looks interesting and might try it here or is that a homemade concept
Tell us what's in the mix. I can't imagine it's got anything special in it. Seems they are going to market it as a mineral in a bag to be able to move the mineral bag around, which I think is unecessary. Irregardless, the deer seem to love it so that's good. Great pics and great deer. TFS
I've already said I have no clue what is inside the bag. We received some to test, and had good results. I have tried everything from cmere deer to black magic before trying to attract them for a camera, and haven't had a lick of success with any of them...So I was surprised by the fast results with this bag. They have bags to be dumped out, and bags to be hung for drip bags. Just another option when it comes to mineral attractants, and my new opinion tells me it is the best that I know of. This wasn't even about the mineral bags though, lol I am not trying to promote these things. I was just mentioning what that burlap bag was hanging on the tree.
Awesome pics and nice bucks, I have never used that mineral attractant before I might have to get one now!!
