What do you feed them?

I really want to hunt WA whitetails in the 2015 season and want to use feed to bring them in. Any tips on what they like and what works for you?


I strictly feed them, whole corn, wet cob and a deer block called I think, Deer Acres. ( not sure ) I could find out if you want, but not till next week.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

If youre settin up in a tree or ground blind for that guy, my guess is hes bedding not far off where he can see/hear you enter and exit.........seen it more than once.

Best chance at a buck like that is the first or second time in your stand....after that, they just seem to know.

I have a ground blind 3 yards from the feed. It's been there from day 1. I also use my side x side to feed them. I make a lot of noise, talking out loud et, so they know it's feeding time. I've had over 2000 pictures of the same does and 5 bucks coming in, but he's the pig of them all.

This is his competitor with a different view.

Sweet buck, hope you get him.  Crazy how that G4 isn't visible at all in the first picture  :o
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

Maybe you guys should go in and buy the country store in Curlew. She's been trying to sell that for a few years since Don passed 5 years ago. She's having a helluva time making ends meet. She's too trusting of the locals that steal from her.....


I guess we should have a Curlew Mens Club then ?

I got the big one on my trail camera yesterday at 1: 36pm. I fed them today at 12:30 pm, went back to the house to get my bow, took a couple kill shots at my Block. Went down to my blind and that small rat bastage competitor was there eating. I know where here's coming from now............

Sounds like you need to start sitting out there all day. I am hoping the freezing temps over here on the West Side in Oregon are going to get a couple of the shooters I have on cam out and feeding early.

This is only the 4-5th time I've seen either buck during the day in 2 months. They only come in at night except for those few times. He'll mess up. I'll be sitting there tomorrow sleeping and he'll show up, I know it........

I have been waiting for the cold weather to get the boys out a little earlier. I am in the same boat. Almost all my pics have been nocturnal. Temps in the 20's this week, I will be in the blind everyday. Best of luck.
