That sweet cherry flavor is probably irresistible to them. Antler max is hard to beat (whole corn probably even better), but that price is very comparable to antler max. I once had a buck return to a single corn cob that was fully de-kerneled just to hold it in his mouth, put it back, only to return several more times to repeat the process.

Hey if they like it you can buy it in bulk from tractor supply in 1000lb or 2000lb totes for .36c a pound..
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

I was looking at that.....and am really interested in the bulk.  I have storage and my feeder holds 300lbs at filling.  I go through 300 lbs every 6-7 weeks so the 2k tote would get me almost a year.   

I was thinking about cutting it with whole corn to save money.

Sounds like a good plan, just make sure your storage for it is rodent proof.....
I cut wet cobb, dry oats and corn together
